    Moral of the story: Support your local coffee shops (but I know it’s not always an option)

    Dunkin is maybe the worst chain. It may be worse than subway.

  4. Dunkin is punishingly sweet, but it is still better than Tim Hortons

    Dunkin also notably became worse when they changed their business from “Krispy Kreme competitor” to “cheap drive-thru coffee”

    All their savory food also has this bizarre like, plasticy taste? There’s like a hint of something that lingers on all of their food and it creeps me out

    When I went to Florida at the beginning of the year for Disney World, I was really surprised to see how big Dunkin is on the East Coast. Seemed like there were a lot down there. Saw a few billboard ads for it too.

    I have a few Dunkins near me, but they don’t seem as hot as the other chain places like Starbucks or Coffee Bean

    fwiw the only unsweetened shot that has a sweetened version is vanilla so if you order any other flavor you should be fine. who knows though my coworkers are morons

    Yeah it's especially nuts up in the north east haha

    My home town is a small town in the middle of nowhere. The only businesses worth going to were.. a gas station, two decrepit old convenience stores, a grocery store, 5+ local pizza places, 2 chinese food places, and I think like 3 or 4 Dunkin donuts? Otherwise, 15-20 minute drive for anything else

    My bosses are cool and ever since I started working at my company, they usually send me home early the day before Thanksgiving because they know I drive a few hours to visit my family.

    This year, they did not do that. Work has been pretty dead today too. Wish I could have the extra time to pack and stuff for the weekend.

    Maybe next year…

    Ugh that's annoying. My boss usually lets me go early before a holiday too but forgot for one holiday earlier this year and I was so annoyed lol. Luckily he let me go at 2 today

    This weather and driving conditions every winter. I moved in February and my commute to walk is a little longer. At least working in a school, I have snow days and “ice days” when it gets too bad, but sometimes they don’t cancel and it’s bad. I had to downgrade to a different car recently too and I don’t have four wheel drive anymore. Not looking forward to it.

    Yeah I don't know how I just fearlessly drove around in front wheel drive sedans in blizzards regularly when I was younger. Snow never bothered me, but as an adult it feels sketchier lol

    Interesting opinion on Tim Hortons. I have a few friends in Detroit I visit a few times a year and TH always feels like a treat since there aren’t any in Philly.
