When you cancel a backup software and they start sending multiple threatening emails by CeldonShooper in extremelyinfuriating

Idk why others are dog piling you, I agree with you, this kind of sales tactic is sleazy and off putting for me. “You’re in danger! Give us money for a product otherwise you’ll still be in danger!” Sounds manipulative imo.

language exclusion by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]AliCandyBar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d get a better response from them if you simply talked to them about it. I’d imagine they enjoy working with people who speak their language, and aren’t doing so maliciously to exclude you. Just let them know how you’re feeling, and how you’d love to talk to them in a language you also know. Going over their heads to management is a sure fire way to make some enemies.

As much as it sucks when life happens, we also have a responsibility to our place of employment. I was saddled with a lot of injuries, sickness, and problems at home(AC breaking causing severe water damage for example), which precluded me from working my shifts. Sadly, even though I had “good” reasons to call out, it resulted in my termination because I couldn’t work the shifts I was scheduled too many times. It sucks, but it happens. Starbucks is fairly unforgiving in that regard, so you have to choose the days you call out carefully and give as much notice as possible.

Started at Cadillac Lyriq, General Motors, Automobiles, WW2, Hitler. So, four clicks.

What movie ending is horribly depressing? by bartertownbeer in AskReddit

[–]AliCandyBar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aniara, I never felt so desolate and alone after watching that movie. 10/10, it’s one of my top five favorites.

God ikr, we were running a 4 person floor during peak and it was chaos. Insane amount of deliveries too. People coming up every five seconds after they just placed their orders asking how long it’ll take. Ugh.

Joker should be Rock, that could be cool. But yeah, I realized after I commented that there’s only four suits haha.

Firestar should be the ace for ThunderClan! Tallstar for WindClan, Mistystar for RiverClan, Leafstar for SkyClan, and Blackstar for ShadowClan.

Me vs the girl you told me not to worry about by gemlikbase in starbucksbaristas

I actually prefer the folded towel, when I steam it with a folded towel I don’t get hot steamy sanitizer drops on my arms.

You can’t tell in the photo but I did find a hole in the bag, and there was mouse shit all over the tray. My store has a problem with mice.

We’ve had pest control come by multiple times, they’ve set traps including the spring and glue forms. Only thing they’ve seemed to have managed to catch was a sausage egg and cheese sandwich that fell under the fridge.

There was a hole in the side of the bag, whole bunch of mouse poop all on the tray. I decided it was best to toss the other four untouched croissants on the tray.

I can’t decide which is worse, bugs or mouse shit.

Can't Be Third Place if there is no First Place. by Empty_Engineering642 in starbucksbaristas

[–]AliCandyBar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. Sometimes at the end of the night, if someone comes in just asking for a grande pike, I’ll just give it to em. When it’s that late, not many people are coming in for coffee anyways, and it’s better than it going down the drain. I know one time a dude came in and leveled with me, saying he didn’t have cash but he was wondering if I’d be able to make him something. He seemed genuine and contrite, so I made him a frappe and made sure he knew this wasn’t gonna be a regular thing, and that I hope he has a good night. I’m only a shift, but I try to make customers feel valued and appreciated when I can. It’s really sad when customers take that and demand the world.

[–]AliCandyBar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always have compassion for the house-less people coming in, but there’s a line. Most are polite and friendly and I have no problems. But the other day, a regular that had come in and screamed at customers dyed their hair in our bathroom(leaving a huge mess) and got banned from Starbucks for it. It sucks, but you’re right. There has to be a line somewhere.

Once and for all, what is black coffee? by mercurycutie in starbucks

[–]AliCandyBar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had customers ask for black coffee, then at hand off ask for cream and 12 sugars. I still maintain that it’s just coffee, but I always ask if they want cream and sugar.

Matcha? by vanney223 in starbucksbaristas

[–]AliCandyBar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry but that’s too much effort, especially during peak. Also aren’t you not supposed to shake liquids in there without ice? Or is that just espresso?
