That friendly barista serves you coffee at Starbucks every day, and now you'll be able to thank her or him by name. The chain has just started rolling out name tags, providing an extra touch of personal interaction (and potential chance for personal attacks if that latte used half 'n' half instead of skim). According to Eater, some outposts already have name tags, but this is the first time that the chain is making a push to roll the feature out nationwide. What do you think - do you want to interact with your barista on a more personal level, or is this (as some detractors have said) "too fast food?"
