If you order this same thing every day (it sounds as if you do), then the person working there should anticipate this. If you are courteous (it sounds as if you are), then the person working there should respond in kind.

I wonder if you have seen her comportment toward other customers. Is she grouchy toward everyone?

Have you also seen the legendary "Soup Nazi" episode of "Seinfeld"? Viewing this might help put this episode into perspective.

Likely her demeanor has nothing to do with you. Order and enjoy.

Dear Amy: I was disgusted by the question from "Upset," whose husband insisted on texting while driving.

I wish you had suggested to her that she might enjoy visiting her husband in jail after he causes a tragic accident.

 

-- Disgusted

Dear Disgusted: The high volume of responses to this question demonstrates how worried people are about sharing the road with distracted drivers.
