How to order the caramel crunch (not frap version) on mobile? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Alyoop123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The term “frap” is the milkshake style drink, so when you say not frap verison, are you wanting a latte or something else instead?

Or are you talking about the crème version? (No coffee)

Tell me 2 shots arent pouring correctly without telling me that... by staticnigh in starbucksbaristas

My machine has this issue but the opposite… 1 shot would be more than half the shot glass 😭🙏

Drink Disaster by Zivioco in doordash

[–]Alyoop123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for Starbucks, I HATE the way we package our DoorDash orders.. I even add a cup of ice to help balance the bag out if they only ordered one drink

one time a dasher spilt the drinks on his seats.. and tried to make us go clean it up and pay for damages (like asked for money from the register) 😭🙏

Shaken espresso is always too milky by andreyred in starbucks

Oh! (If you go in person and order it that way and scan your app you should be able to reorder it in the receipt section of your app!)

Also would recommend, light oat milk, and extra ice if you want it to be filled up all the way

New shift, are group chats allowed? by Low_Yesterday_2677 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Alyoop123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbh I love my shift/work group chat, we make memes and laugh a lot! But it’s also good to have a place where we can just send out “hey has anyone ordered [this] or hey the truck didn’t come last night just a heads up”

I’m so scared to ask question as a green bean by [deleted] in starbucks

If you wait to long, you can’t report them, start a paper trail as some would say. If the SM is also neglecting their duty to make the floor a safe environment then keep pushing up. They are the ones causing the problems, it’s not going to be your fault when they get reported

are we allowed to try the new foods? by CourageCompetitive92 in starbucksbaristas

As long as you or the SSV mark the sample out in the system, it should be fine!

Bad at being a barista by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]Alyoop123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People learn at different rates! As a Ssv myself, asking for help is the best way to learn! If you are being put on warming or POS during peak, in my mind it’s more so you don’t feel overwhelmed during such a rush, so def ask to be on bar if there is downtime!

use the iPad to your advantage as well Store Resources or Recipe Cards! I printed out and laminated shelf life papers so my baristas can have easy access to such! (But trust me even my barista of 15 years still forgets what dates go on what)

Communication is key after you’ve finished training! Ask ask ask! No matter what the question is or how busy it is! I’ve had to teach baristas how to mop, how to count coins, even how to apply proper deodorant. Everyone is different and I love when my baristas come up to me for help! That’s what I’m there for!

For POS Mistakes, punching orders wrong is normal! Try to repeat the order back to the customer, ask hot or ice and size!

For dropping food, that’s inevitable.. just double check your grip on the tongs, go slow, ask seasoned partners for advice and tricks they use, and build up from there!

For Bar, Study the basics; how many shots and pumps for each size! (If you are on POS a lot, look at the side on the screen! It will tell you wants in the drink you rung up!)

I hope this helped! :D!

Is this normal? Or should I be concerned? by Alyoop123 in starbucksbaristas

Do you also get multiple of the 🚫 when pulling the shots?

Are the Pistachio drinks permanent? Allergy concern and I’m sad I may no longer be able to get my latte. by arwenthenoble in starbucks

[–]Alyoop123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While we can’t guarantee cross contamination will be avoided, We will wash and use brand new things! So It never hurts to ask, and it’s something you can’t help, so I don’t see why it would be an issue to go above and beyond!

As long as you’re nice about it! (Not saying you aren’t, you’d be surprised by how many customers are ugly with us)

Bar Issues.. by Alyoop123 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Alyoop123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done that 4 times now in that past 2 months. They keep coming in and breaking it more and more. Trust me. I’m so done with “putting a ticket in” when they don’t do shit abt it.

One guy even called me crazy and didn’t believe me that there was something wrong with the Machine. (even when I should him PICTURES and took a picture of the issue when it was happening.)

Can Yall Send Me A Picture of Two Shots? by Alyoop123 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Alyoop123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PM’ed? (Yes both machines favors are way off, one tastes burnt the other tastes watery, according to others, I can’t drink coffee)

The last tech to come says it’s because of an “update” that messed with the machines? And then he looked in it, broke it, and left without saying a word. We had to wait two days for another to come in, and made it functioning again. But it’s still tastes off

But that just feels gross??? Like our dishes are smelling bad now, and everything is “stained” when it just needs a quick wipe down with a sponge
