23 Things People Who Work At Dunkin Donuts Really, REALLY Need You To Know
1. First and foremost, it's annoying when you compare Dunkin Donuts to Starbucks.

They are completely different.
3. I think it's safe to say, just never mention Starbucks when you're in a Dunkin Donuts.

4. Don't complain about the cold when you're in the drive-thru. You opened your window for like 10 seconds, they keep opening theirs all day.

10. Don't complain about the prices of donuts, it's not like the people working there are pricing them.

18. Don't ask the cashier "what donuts they have" because they are literally right there in front of your face.
