New parent works at the local coffee place. The child is picked up a little after 3 which of course is when I am trying to stay awake. mmmm.....how can I convince her to bring me free soy cappuccinos?

drop crazy obvious hints. Rave about their coffee. Complain about the other coffee place. Tell her you could use a pick me up but youre fresh out of coffee. And of course be a super awesome provider and shell do it out of gratitude

My first family..that I termed...worked at a coffee place. She would occasionally bring me mochas, but I'd ask for them. Usually if she was going to be a few minutes late, I'd say ok, but bring me a mocha as payment.

Haha that happened today! A week ago I was talking to another dcm about child proofing as her infant is starting to pull herself up. I have a ton of furniture anchors from a mis order I did. She asked ifs he could paye anything and I said just pick me up a coffee. Mmm something called a snowman. Maybe that is what I will tell the new parent now along worth the hints!

I had a DCM bring me 44 oz diet Pepsis at pick up! I jokingly texted one time, "Hey, grab me a diet Pepsi before you leave. I have $$!!" She NEVER has charged me even though I tried to pay her numerous times!

ps... she brought them once or twice a week.

Ask her to bring one and be prepared to pay for it.

If you expect FREE, so will she.

plus she may have to pay herself... so find out cost plus tax and send it with her in the morning or get a gift card for the place so she can pick them up for you.
