Starbucks Does Not Use Two-Phase Commit

One problem Starbucks around here seem to have is that they will inevitably make cups of coffee for mystery customers who never pick them up. I've seen as many as 3 cups of very precisely crafted coffees on the counter with nobody else in the store.

I've had to abandon coffee at the Starbucks on market street in San Francisco several times. I'd go in with 12 minutes until my bus came, and they weren't able to make a coffee that fast.

Perhaps your Starbucks barista is pulling a Jerry Glanville, the NFL coach who would leave game tickets at will-call for Elvis.
