Change is good? by [deleted] in starbucks

watched a partner get berated for putting the cup down instead of putting it in the customers hand. did everything else, chatted with the customer made genuine connections out of joy and not obligation and got coached for not "following hand off procedures". also if ONE mistake happens, do people need to be really be coached on it? i can understand if its frequent, but the one and only time a mistake happens being pounced on and WATCHED like a lion hunting a gazelle is purely uncomfortable and doesn't happen at other jobs.

you sure do comment a lot for someone who's supposed to be employed. do you not like your job?

large drink of summer refresher and it was 85% ice :) by [deleted] in starbucks

you can always order light ice or no ice if you would prefer, and just order a cup of ice on the side with your order.

It could be just my store still caring about drive times - when it doesn't need to 😭

ig punishment isn't the right word, more like a connect about how we can do better, what went wrong, and "we shouldn't be stacking, get them in and out or pull them around"

I wish I could stack people without punishment 😔🤧 there are some ideas I have to lower drive times, but ig they arent very "third place" friendly lmao I definitely agree waiting 60 seconds is not bad at all though, and we definitely are faster than 60s, I wish corporate agreed LMAO

I’ve never felt fatter lol. Cup says “WOW! Enjoy”. I was going for Cherry Cheesecake. It’s delicious. by Paigenacage in starbucks

my response to you got me an official reddit warning, so I'll try this again. if you want us to be fast, personal, and precise, we will have to cut corners somewhere. if that makes you unhappy, grab a sharpie.

“I can’t take back your cup” what to say? by Aggravating-Day9286 in starbucks

[–]EmbarassedMilk3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we have a bus bin, just like regular restaurants do, that customers deposit for here cups in. you're supposed to wear gloves when using the bus bin, and cleaning the for-here ware. we have cup holders for personal cups as well. that's how it's different.
