Starbucks — Restaurant in City of Albany

Yes I wasn't Starbucks down across from Albany Memorial Hospital and yes I was sitting there for a good hour at least I was waiting to see somebody come in but apparently she had something else to do and didn't have the time to stop and say hello or even have a cup of coffee that we were supposed to have a long time ago but anyway I understood everything that was going on in her life we are now friends so you have a good evening and soon as I get my photos loaded up I will send everybody a photo if you notice the photo when you first got on the internet me and the person the woman alongside me that is my former wife she passed away on me after 40 years being married what is part of life we made it back got no matter what that will move on show each other would not wind up going crazy I couldn't do it right away I stayed in a recliner staring into midair my kids do not like what they're saying they said I change an awful lot but you got to understand I just lost my true love my best friend I met her on a Monday married her the following Saturday 40 years ago as of last Friday one week after anniversary she passed away and I sat in the house for almost a full year and just stared at the walls and talk to people on the tablet that was my life I still sleep with her picture alongside me every night she's at the end of my bed next to the TV and so is my daughter 35 years old people passed away she lets us a beautiful granddaughter that was three years old when she passed away she was born on my birthday June 22nd I never celebrated another birthday and now I would never ever celebrate another one 35 years old...

Ryan IS quality. I went on 9/19/25 at 1030ish in the morning. Ordered on app, it's packed. There were roughly 10 employees behind the counter. The scene looked at little chaotic, EXCEPT for Ryan. Bro is calm, cool, collected working the machine like his hands have hands and his fingers have fingers. Unfortunately, he was not the first one to make my Americano. I took a sip and it was delicious, don't get me wrong, but I had ordered it hot and it came in a hot cup but was cold. Not just look warm, it was like it was made iced and someone realized their mistake and just poured it into a hot cup. I HATE being that guy who returns food or beverages especially when I just watched two other customers do it and watched Ryan handle it with the dignity and respect of Gatsby himself. So I just figured I would ask this gentleman if I could get it steamed. He takes a look at it and says nah, I'm going to remake this drink too because steaming it is not going to give the quality it deserves for the customer. This guy. This mint of a man went above and beyond to ensure quality, and customer experience was not remotely sacrificed. And he did it not by degrading anyone around him, but instead he carefully and thoughtfully reminded some to keep an eye on the quality of drinks as they are made demonstrating great leadership. Thank you for caring and being a good...
