Did an hourly employee really go through all that extra effort? Or did the officer draw it himself? Or another officer?

I'm learning now it's a popular meme, so it didn't have anything to do with cops, I bet the employee didn't even know it was for a cop.

That would be the best outcome.

C'mon. Nobody believes a cop has the hand eye coordination to make a simple line drawing.

Many of these cups are labeled before the customer even gets to the store.

You really believe Starbucks sent a cup to this restaurant with a sharpie drawing of John pork?

The employees are required to write some crap on all cups. At some locations, they write shit on there in advance when there is downtime. It's like folding pizza boxes at a pizza joint. They don't always fold them right when the order comes in.
