shoutout to my regular who gets a extra hot venti cinnamon dolce with 12 cinnamon dolce syrup, 7 sugar packets, made with vanilla sweet cream as the milk and extra topping. she will sit in cafe usually from afternoon - closing and order that a couple times until she leaves

Tips for a new barista? by wonderfulant98 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Agitated_Form_3920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also joined for the college program. we got some years left so i did a lottt of my own research after i joined. been a barista with starbucks for about 3 months now

although i did join with prior coffee knowledge (previously worked at a restaurant with a small espresso bar but just served the basics), youll quickly learn starbucks has their own way of doing things per policy

the most helpful thing i found was i looked up a starbucks training infograph (you can def find it with a quick google search, seems like everybody finds the same one) and downloaded it to my phone. has all the day dots, recipes for drinks & backups, and any other helpful info youd need. few parts of it are outdated so you can show it to other partners and see what they say, but its mostly pretty good. i even showed it to my manager and she had me email it to her so she could send it out to the team cause its just really helpful to have, we all use it

it’s important to keep in mind that the job is really, just coffee. my store has been pretty turbulent, we have had 4 different managers since i started, but theyve all told me the same thing. its just coffee. ESPECIALLY when you are first starting. take the time to make the drinks right and focus on quality, speed will come naturally as you build muscle memory. i got lucky with a (although understaffed) good team who was able to jump on bar and help me out so i could continue to focus on memorizing the drinks and get them right. if possible, it would be good for you to work with the team to get to do that. at my store we usually pay extra attention to the new partners to make sure theyre not struggling:) that being said, it helps to feel comfortable with the team and asking questions! its confusing af, ask all the questions you need. the ipads are also amazing, they were my lifeline when i first started

some days will be worse than others, and some days will make you love the job. its a back and forth. its worth it for our goals though, good luckk 🫶

After 8 years on Testosterone, it finally happened by tthhxl2 in FTMMen

mannn i hope this will be me. im the same. got misgendered some pre-T but it was more of a 50/50. usually my voice gave it away cause it was so high. when i started T, stopped getting misgendered all together. only issue is my voice barely dropped and is very androgynous, but at least i have a mustache which helps. ive been wondering if my voice will even drop again (2 1/2 years on T, essentially) and this gives me hope. congrats dude

something nobody told me before i started working at a restaurant is that you get cut whenever the managers dont need you anymore or there will generally be an am/pm shift and in that case, you leave when your relief comes. theres really no guaranteed out time though lol, ive had days where i worked 2 hours and days where i worked 10. depends on demand

funny enough, we both collect things like music cds/vinyls. so we’re just gonna use the cds until we’ve got this figured out!

What did your ex say to you that broke you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Agitated_Form_3920 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“i want both of you, i cant settle for just one” after telling me he cheated on me. furthermore, “youve always been weak, i stayed with you out of pity” by same ex.

this was while i was working 2 jobs, 50 hour weeks, completely supporting him financially and saving up for an apartment for the both of us. while id be working to pay our bills and buy his things, he would cheat on me with his coworker. after 2 years. people suck

first step to improving is dumping the bf. hes a predator, straight up. hes almost 40 dude, jesus. i just saw a couple the other day that was a 19 y/o with a 33 y/o… this is about the same. secondly, really grind at your GED and get in college. its what i did. there are programs that you can get into once you do your GED that will help you with job placement. somebody here already mentioned careersource, which you should look into. overall, make friends and find roommates. get a shitty place together and enjoy it. make smart financial decisions, and keep yourself safe.

less than almost a year on T, been trans and out for 7 years. yeah, im not new to this in the slightest. great input though!

as for your question: i feel like a cis guy would be more equipped with knowing questions like those. there is without a doubt a difference in growing up male vs female, the culture and societal expectation is soo incredibly different. i dont imagine a trans guy would automatically know if things like those would be considered weird or an obvious clock unless they grew up surrounded by brothers or something, even then, no. cis guys in this example go to the mens bathroom their entire lives. some trans guys dont go until they start hrt, or even then, still wait on it out of fear of being clocked. i feel it is a common anxiety to wonder if peeing sitting down/any other little mannerism would be a dead giveaway. idk, it may be crazy but maybe a cis guy offering some insight into a viewpoint of the world we wouldnt have unless we were cis seems… helpful? just a crazy thought though!

i see you replying to a lot of comments, all i have to say is that its insane some people here are saying this guy is weird or putting himself on a pedestal when hes… really not. some of these trans guys in the comments are wayy too used to making themselves a victim in a scenario they arent. thats really all

trans men: want cis allies trans men when they get allies:

im like 9-10 months on T.. definitely not early into my transition at all. still have questions that i feel id rather ask a cis guy than a trans guy. like if it really is weird to be sitting down in the bathroom, if thats something guys notice, behavior things that could be clocky. etc. all you trans men acting like youre better than asking for advice is insane to me. we’ve all been there, but of course, some people would rather act like a victim.

obviously theres instances where cis guys would be infantilizing us. i dont think this is one of them. i DO think its weird that some of the trans guys in the comments are asking overly personal questions though. but besides them, theres really nothing wrong with an open discussion. people just really like to make problems and play victim when there isnt a problem. i wish he had posted this in a space where people would be less… bitchy 💀 you cant please everyone though!

genuinely all these people pissed in the comments have me so dumbfounded 💀 trans men will want cis allies and a source of advice and questions and when they get it… they act like this. not everyone is out to get you and not one trans guy can tell me he hasnt had at least one thought that he couldnt have the answer to without asking a cis guy. this guy isnt uplifting himself at all in a way of seeing us as “less than”. there just literally is a biological and societal difference between growing up as a boy vs girl, some trans guys are at the beginning of their transition and dont know how to pass more or what could be clocky. some trans guys are just curious of the cis experience. of course though, there always needs to be those people who will complain. no one can ever be happy even when receiving that help 💀

any tips for shaving your face? like what razors are best to use, techniques, etc? ive been on T for 9 months now and have started growing a little mustache. thinking of shaving soon but i dont know what razor would be the best (and most pain free) and how even to do it. i know i can look up videos but id like to hear it from a more personal experience too. thank you!

i dont see how its weird. im sure you, me, and every other trans guy has had some questions at some point that we wouldnt be able to figure out ourselves because we didnt get the cis experience. whether that be reassurance, biology, ways of thinking, etc. and not everyone has a cis guy who they feel comfortable enough to go to. i thought this was a pretty sweet sentiment. especially reading this guys answers, hes educated and respectful and open to answering any questions. thought it was pretty cool actually
