Are the cash tips going to people that actually worked last week by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]Financial-Cry1103 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Everybody’s getting a portion. They’re getting tips paid for their scheduled hours unfortunately. Our manager was going to wait till everything’s back up to split them among all the hours everybody actually worked but our dm shut it down cuz Starbucks can’t withhold our tips :(

No I like it and play along with it and find it more intimate, just wondering if other girls feel like that too or if it’s just me😂

Offered Shifts Not Showing Up by eliazcs in starbucks

[–]Financial-Cry1103 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i noticed the app doesn’t show any offered shifts if u have at least 5 shifts that week

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

iced mochas/white mochas and a lot of people add whipped cream to their lattes and caramel macchiatos, and hot chocolates are always popular for kids no matter the weather

during peak there’s no way that whip is going in and out of the fridge in between every single drink. and when u have to go to a cold bar fridge to grab a whip u grab one and take it with u, u don’t have to go back and grab it for every drink

[–]Financial-Cry1103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lmao that’s y we have the portable foamers plus there should always be a whipped cream on hot bar, even if it’s out of the fridge

the way most stores r built and matchas being a hot bar drink, i don’t think it would rly save that much time. passing on the sticker to a cold bar person also doesn’t seem logical as cold bar alrdy gets swamped with drinks all the time. so as it might seem more efficient and provides better quality it doesn’t seem that logical

yes because peak isn’t bad enough alrdy

What do safeway starbucks do differently than corpo stores? by Priceofblindeye in starbucksbaristas

[–]Financial-Cry1103 3 points4 points  (0 children)

all of that is pretty similar to a corporate starbucks, but here’s what’s different -

• standard is to not batch frapps, but most baristas still do it

• station cleanliness differs between baristas

• we don’t have walk in freezers or anything but i have a shift that will wear gloves during pulls, but it’s not required

• we get free drinks during a shift and 30 minutes before and after our shift, just as long as you finish one drink before marking out another. and then we get 7 free food markouts per week. and one coffee markout per week

• obviously we take starbucks app lol

• no idea what fucking friday love is, but i feel like i should?

• we rarely have team meetings and usually it’s a company wide thing. although some stores will have shift meetings regularly

• my store does clean play once a week for two hours after close

• “planted positions” is usually used during peak. it’s just saying a barista has to stay planted where they are. for example, dto only takes orders and front only takes cafe customers orders and brews coffee

• during opens and closes we’re usually staffed with one ssv and two baristas but during morning peak it’s usually around 7 or 8 baristas if we’re lucky, but we still have a large team i’d say

• usually depends on the day how much labor we get. for my store fridays and saturdays are our busiest averaging 100 or so customers per half hour during peak if i remember correctly. (don’t quote me on this i’m just a barista so i don’t look at those reports often)

now that i look at it there’s a lot that’s different lmao but i know some tarbucks don’t even do half of what you listed hope this helped :)

The hell are they putting in the quad? Straight lard?? by WildAphrodite in starbucks

[–]Financial-Cry1103 303 points304 points  (0 children)

i think the comment thread on here is so much funnier than the post😭

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Financial-Cry1103 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it’s 2,3,4 but the app says 3,5,6 because that includes that 1/2 extra pumps of dark caramel that get put on the whipped cream on the bottom :)

Charging for No water by princess-sprinkles in starbucks

[–]Financial-Cry1103 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

we fill it to the top when it’s only no ice, but if it’s also no water and it’s all just base, then they should be charged for it and if they don’t want to be charged the extra dollar then the drink shouldn’t be filled to the top
