overseen at starbucks

that time I was sitting across from the counter at a Starbucks on yonge street between bloor and asquith, the store was not busy at the time when a vehicle belonging to a local television station parked in front of the cafe and one of the stations celebritys came in the store and ordered a coffea. thit asked for a lid, left the counter and walked towards the door as thit took keys out of thit's pocket with thits left hand which thit then held the bottom of the cup with and paused at the further end of the counter to put the lid on the cup placing the hand with the keys on the counter and under the cup, once it's on thit continues on thits way then stops and holds the cup to thits eye level and looks at the bottom then turns around walks back to the counter and shows the staff the coffea leaking from the bottom, they give thit another coffea checking the bottom of that cup and one of the staff removes several more cups from the stack to look at their bottoms. they all laugh about it and thit leaves while they are checking the bottom of the paper cup of the person they had served before thit returned.

thit stops and looks over thit's shoulder to see where the staff is serving the customer who was behind thit and then as thit is seemingly struggling with putting on the lid thit seems to have something in thitsother hand which thit holds against the bottom of the cup rather than place it on the counter to force the lid on... thit gets the lid on and starts for the door then stops and puts thits hand to the bottom removes it rubs thits fingers together, lifts the cup up a bit and inclines thits head to peer at the bottom, the cup seems to have a leak... thit returns to the counter and excuses thit self for interrupting the customer they are serving and points out thits cup is leaking... the customer that was behind thit is now checking the cup she got, which is not leaking. they take the leaking cup from thit, apologise and check the next cup from the stack to make certain it didn't have a hole in it and some of the others to see if the damage had passed through more than that one defective cup, as though they thought the defect was from the manufacturing. they fill one of those cups and give it to thit. as thit leaves im thinking did thit put the hole in the bottom, accidentally or on purpose, with thits key or something else thit had on the keyring or was it there and thit didn't know the cup had a leak till thit got the lid on.
