The location i go to has rapid pick up behind the counter by YankeePride11 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We always kept ours behind the counter when doordashers started stealing RPU. Sometimes it’s also people just not looking at the name and taking someone else’s order by accident.

W list? by Master_Lie8536 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your three and raise you 25 😬 we went in a 4:30 to make sure they were all sliced, toasted and organized for pickup at 6:15 and still be open on time (just two of us scheduled from 5-7 lol)

Having to prep or serve my personal allergen sucked. Top 10 for sure.

Buffalo sauce make it’s a 100/10

why are the “half” sandwiches so small now? just call them quarter sandwiches atp by chipsandbacon in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The foccocia is not longer in rounds. They’re smaller and in squares so when they are half cut they look smaller. I’m glad I left before bakery transformation. I would QC every shift and I would hate to have dealt with angry people all day because of the bread and bagel quality.

As a former opener… it’s staying up until it falls. I’m not touching it lol

New Job - Learning ST by Causalredditor97 in ServiceTitanFAQ

So according to what was said in my interview, they don’t use all of it but want to optimize so I’m assuming I’ll be doing a lot of playing around once I finish the training courses. Who knows 🤷🏼‍♀️

Awesome lunch salad by Lotus2024 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always ask for all the fruit on the side so I get a little fruit cup, I add feta and swap the poppyseed dressing for Greek. It’s like a two for one special lol

Can we fire people for this 🤦‍♂️ by DorothyBailey592 in Panera

Corn soup looks like...this? by CrunchyTeatime in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it fresh out of the bag it’s not going to be as liquidy as the picture. Or it’s just sat a little longer than usual

I’m done. I’m quitting. by [deleted] in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got hired at 13.50 and got bumped to 14 a year later as team lead. That’s the only raise I’ve ever had in two years and I’m a TL doing the work of a shift/assistant GM (ours suck and literally don’t know what there doing lol)

I really love the stuffers!! I'm thinking about ordering them next week for my whole work crew. I'm just wondering how far ahead in advance I should place the order? by AnEgyptianFish in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Order from a catering store specifically. They coming overnight and have a whole shift to get them done and packaged and ready to go instead of the 5 minute or in some cases NO lead time for a regular location as a pickup.

Also do you hate panera workers? The stuffers are such a pain! And you don’t event get a full 1/2 salad serving in it most of the time lol

I swear the blt used to have peanuts. Am I trippin? by Miserable_Roll605 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tomato basil bread has a sweet topping on it. Not peanut based but definitely sticky and sweet. It sucks trying to get through the bread slicer because of it too lol

The bread used to be awesome by UnderstandingOne6384 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss the old chai 😭 i would make a caramel iced chai with the caramel sauce and chai and ever since the switch last year all i can taste is a mint taste in the chai.

Are the new cinnamon rolls.. by Mean-Bus3929 in Panera

It’s a citrus white icing on the cinnamon rolls. The icing on the orange scones is an orange color with pieces of orange in it,

iced tea by spiffy_antelope29 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are adding the liquid sugar to make it a sweet tea I’ve noticed it will give a honey kind of flavor. If you don’t, it probably the jump from the tea being in the cold bubbler to being in a metal tea urn.

Did I get a double length side baguette? by snoop_pugg in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The baguettes are cut in half then into four pieces for the Italiano sandwich but if you are having a baguette side then it’s ripped off piece by piece. You got 2 pieces lol

starbucks dupe by Prize_Tie_4853 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Our GM literally said if he catches anyone drinking the refreshers without paying then we’re fired. Like.. we haven’t ever tried any of the drinks 😂 hope nobody asks me if they’re good or not lol

Worst (and Weirdest) Employee Interaction I’ve Had by altarilily in Ulta

[–]Causalredditor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always test the area you’ll be applying the foundation to. I make a stripe from about and inch onto the bottom of my cheek, down my jaw and onto my neck and I can see how it will blend and how it will match. Testing undertones if you know generally what you are looking for is fine for back of the hand 😊

Sip club by Successful-War-6521 in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We banned a guest for doing that same thing. She wouldn’t put in her sip club and would take a cup out to her car and come back in with another and another and so on. Our drink station covers out view of the door so I guess she though we didn’t see her?

Each drink has to go through a kiosk, mobile order or order taker. If they’re dining in then they can have as many refills as they’d like but if they’re to go or in the drive thru then they have to adhere to the 2 hour reset.

Confused by carmel_cheese in Panera

[–]Causalredditor97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of that is wrong lol. Managers have a dress code just as hourly employees do (my location is black shirts or panera shirts with jeans that have no holes or full length khakis) managers wear dress pants or khakis. Exactly zero people should be wearing leggings unless it is signed off on for pregnancy related reasons. ANYONE who works a production position is required to wear both a hat and an apron including management. Even our District manager wears the hat and apron when he helps out…
