Why does it always take so FREAKING long for them to make my smoothie at Jamba Juice?

Question

They are so slow at Jamba Juice and it's not just one. I've been to at least three where they seem to move at a snail's pace. Why is this? Do the bananas not peel themselves?

Answer 1

Maybe they take a while because they are good. You always need to wait longer for a good product. For example: McDonalds is NOT a good quality burger, so that is why it is cheap and FAST. If you get a burger at Chili's or Red Robin, it is more money and it takes longer because the food is better. Simple as that. The better the food/drink, the longer the wait.  

Answer 2

There smoothies are full of sugar! so why even bother.  

Answer 3

it does take a while for them to make the smoothie. one thing that i notice if you watch them is that they are constantly moving to make the thing and it is not like they are standing around talking or something.  so for me it is cool.......i wouldn't want to complain and get a little special unnecessary ingredient in my smoothie.  

Answer 4

no the bananas don't "peel themselves"............sheesh somebody needs to cool her jets or go make her own smoothie.

Answer 5

No...bananas in fact do not peel themselves.  

Answer 6

good question! i was wondering the same thing, but i do have to say they are def worth the wait!!

Answer 7

You were saying once that there was another place that made killer smoothies, just go there instead.

Jamba juice was better when it was zuka juice.

When it used to be zuka juice they actually had a smoothie cow that they could just milk and the smoothie was ready for you.  It was much faster than they do it now, but the cow got old and it retired.  So, they couldn't milk it anymore.

Answer 8

Maybe if those employee were paid a little better and were given tips

and sweet customers ready to enjoy their smoothies and a nice thank you have a good day. Maybe they aren't being treated well? Maybe they are a litle Lazy or something is going on in their life. Just don't have an attitude with them enjoyr your drink and move on.
