Case No. 3
BARISTA: THE AUDITOR
CAFE: NONE
DATE: MID NOVEMBER
RECEIPT ID: CUS-01
As I head back to the contiguous states, I figured I should take a moment to write a bit about Sunshine's current reservation. I would have also spent some time writing about their first service, the one involving Mr. Perez and the Astorians, but I think Jack, Julia, and even Lucy would rather just move past that utter disgrace. Though, in Sunshine's defense, the entire branch is made up of fairly fresh faces in the Coffee Trade and surely their slip up pales in comparison to the worst of Bloodglass, Requiem, or Tesseract. Regardless, everyone is still alive and well, and really that's all that matters. Plus, their disastrous first service is what finally got me hired, so… I can't be too hard on the newcomers.
So, moving past Mr. Perez, Sunshine is currently attempting to serve Mr. Prock a nice warm meal and a… a drink. You know… I can't help but feel like now would be an excellent time to arrange a drink menu for the Cafes—see, each type of customer has a different preference as to what drink they take and it would make writing these diner receipts a bit easier if we were all on the same page in that regard. Of course, the drink menu will be written here, in a Diner Receipt, so you'll still have to put two and two together, but I'll make it as clear as possible. Each type of customer has a taste profile which roughly matches up with our sponsors:
Astra enjoys hot Apple Cider.
Lucy prefers a Coffee with Cream.
Mam is partial to a decadent Hot Chocolate.
Santos favors a tart, fresh-squeezed Orange Juice.
Sara slurps up a neat Scotch.
Beez can't pass up a warm cup of Green Tea.
Levi has a simple taste and orders only Ice Water.
Asmi prefers a Corpse Reviver to kick off the day.
Lastly Behram takes a simple Double Shot.
Any customers outside of our sponsor's tastes, let's just say they'll enjoy a Long Island Iced Tea—a bit of everything all at once with a headache to match.
With all of that now established, Mr. Prock will need a nice warm meal with a calming cup of Green Tea. To aid in Mr. Prock's service, Dalisay has produced a set of gloves made by Mr. Geometer. I would likely advise against using any clothing made from Mr. Geometer but… I suppose we all learn one way or another, right?

RECEIPT ID: CAD-04
First things first: it is deeply distressing that CD-CUS-04 has been redacted from Sunshine's personal view.
For the life of me, I don't know why that is. I also see that the general numbering of receipts is off. Really, that is all quite strange. Strange things are our business though, so I wouldn't get too worked up over it, Jackie. Though, I will speak to CaDence about it. Perhaps it's just a glitch in the CaDCom system? Not that I am claiming CaDence is "glitchy." Please, she is anything but. Let's not worry ourselves with the "behind the scenes" of it all. One can hope that it's a clerical error and it can be dealt with swiftly. CaDence knows what she is doing, after all. Anyway… quite a quick case for Sunshine! Truly, exemplary work team! I thought, you know, based on the prior receipts, you would have struggled a bit more with Mr. Prock. Oh, how I was wrong! Not a problem for you at all!
And with that all squared up, I believe it is time for me to return to the The Cafe and Diner in Long Beach, California. I need to discuss some important things with Jack—and I'll see if CaDence knows what's up with the "redactedness" of certain receipts. Again, quite strange. In the meantime, I'll dust off Midnight's case report that was filed before my employment and put it back into the public repository system. You know, it's funny, out of all eight Cafes, I wouldn't have guessed Midnight to be the only one on top of getting a Case Report filed before my arrival. Mm, then again, I suppose they have quite a bit more free time since the shuttering of their main competitor, the Dark.
Oh well, I wonder where Jack will send me next—and if they'll still have some turkey by the time I get there.
