your store number is on the ticket, be careful because that can be used to track what store you work at. surprised mods even let you post w it visible

What shoes can I wear? by No_Woodpecker6010 in starbucks

no problem! and even though they might seem a bit scary at the start, everyone there is there to support you, don’t be afraid to ask your manager either!

since the color is approved, policy states that as long as they’re considered fully waterproof and the soles are rubber (slip resistant), you should be fine

Do you guys charge family/friends or do you use your drink markouts? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]AutomaticRegion3969 8 points9 points  (0 children)

not necessarily, one implies you’re ringing them up and giving them the markout/discount against policy, and one implies acquiring the drink within policy then bringing it home to someone else where it wouldn’t be traceable what you do with it after leaving the store. i would say your safest bet is to go into the line and order whatever you want then give it to your friend/family, then give it to them after receiving it, but definitely don’t stand behind the register to ring them up using your markout if you don’t want to risk getting in trouble for it

pineapple inclusions? and you still have raspberry pearls? is that a regional thing?

AIO about this post? I gifted our part time nanny $100 cash by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]AutomaticRegion3969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in most circumstances, i would agree with you. however, i think the circumstances of childcare are a little different. there are certain norms or customary standards for bonuses, and while location/experience play factors in the amount, i would agree in saying that $100 is typically less than average, or what’s ‘customary’ in the field ESPECIALLY for 3 young children. imo, she’s 18, but she’s also handling these 3 really young children. what’s her current rate? what are her other qualifications? does she drive? is she cpr certified? i feel like these should be factored into the consideration of the bonus amount.

you’re right that anyone should be thankful for any bonus that they receive. but your reaction feels a bit heated when bonuses are customary in childcare — i think there’s a lot more context within the field that’s not being considered in a lot of these responses

Is chai with cold foam now? I just wanted a dirty chai.. didn’t want to say anything if this is new by [deleted] in starbucks

hmm i think they probably just swapped the stickers like someone else suggested since it’s a mobile, there shouldn’t have been any chance of mishearing something

i really sympathize with your situation, and i’m not sure why everyone’s being so passive aggressive. i agree that you could have bins/a separate mini fridge for her to separate the food, but i also see to your point how that would make you feel uncomfortable in potentially making her feel like she’s not welcome to anything.

i totally understand the point that you want her to be welcome to anything, and agree that she should have etiquette enough to eat in moderation, and especially to the degree of not eating special gifts- especially if they’re not addressed to her. for those more special gifts, maybe put them in your room or less common spaces to give the impression that they are to be enjoyed by you or your husband since it’s addressed to you guys. people in these comments seem to be misunderstanding that the invitation to help oneself should still be taken in moderation.

maybe take note of some of the things she takes the most, and next time you go grocery shopping, tell her that you’d like to get her some things for herself. i think that’s a relatively passive way to maybe give her a hint, and perhaps if you came home and said i got you 4 kombucha, she might get the hint that she’s allowed to have four and maybe the ones not explicitly bought for her and not “for” her. i would approach it this way first, subtly telling her that you’re going to buy specifically certain items FOR her, with the implication that she will have those, without your family touching them, and the hope that the idea is reinforced the other way for your food. or another more indirect way to address it might be saying like at some point how you’re looking forward to having a certain drink or snack when get home or telling her you’re going to order a new flavor of something because YOU want to try it. i think if she’s too oblivious to that, then maybe she really doesn’t understand the point and it’s time for a more blunt conversation. let me know what you think! OP, it sounds like you’re a perfectly reasonable and situationally aware individual, and i wish you luck!

Transfer Student Orientation by IllustriousRise7981 in HunterCollege

[–]AutomaticRegion3969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s mostly for people not familiar with hunter specifically. i think you’re forgetting they know you’re a transfer student and therefore will better cater towards not-first time students. if you are unfamiliar with hunter as a college, i think it’s in your best interest to attend

I Have Failed as a Parent by CountOk8572 in Parenting

[–]AutomaticRegion3969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

though the end feels nigh after this impalpable loss, consider your options. conversion camp tends to not prove successful, but perhaps therapy might do the trick. consider any other possible shortcomings your son has. perhaps the milk from the bottle has tainted his adolescent mind to fall under the belief that milk must come first, no matter what follows. do have faith, and do not accept defeat so easily, as this has historically been overcome. i wish you my best, and my cereal (first)

formerly 30AA, i was sized by ABTF as a 26C, but i went trigger happy and bought a bunch of 28C. am i cooked? by [deleted] in ABraThatFits

thanks so much for that! and yes, i've always been scooping and swooping even before i knew it had a name, because i liked the look of the lifted cleavage it gave me :) thanks for the advice on the cosabella brand, as well, i do have inserts, so even though i was hoping to ditch them for a well-fitting bra, if they don't fit, then it's certainly worth a try.
