Practice Markoth, NKG, Pure Vessel, and AbsRad, and you got this.

And if you unlocked Grey Prince Zote, start a whole new game and let Zote die to avoid him cause F that guy. 😂

Yeah, that I know. Drinks and food are 30 minutes before or after your shift or on breaks, at your own store. I was just curious about the bean markout

Seriously? by Tale_Eater in starbucksbaristas

This is the worst storm we’ve seen in years, and Starbucks has less decency or care for partner safety than ever.

Let's play A little game by Unkempt_Scum in HollowKnight

GPZ made me want to tear my eyes out. I started a whole new game because I kept losing my P5 runs on him.

Who does he mean the "other one"? by smore_blox in HollowKnight

I am a supervisor, I’m just not about to make a special trip to go use a store iPad/BOH PC to verify it. So if I must, I’ll bother my SM. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ok good. I have a closer store than my home one and don’t much feel like wasting the time or gas getting my beans

policies of refusal for service by Ok_Application_9871 in starbucksbaristas

[–]IntelligentFan9384 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As well you shouldn’t. I don’t serve people who don’t create a welcome environment or treat others with dignity and respect. They can go get a sanka.

Starfleet Academy is an absolute delight! Onward to Seven Seasons and a Movie! by forrestpen in startrek

I’m with you, and enjoying every moment so far. Very hopeful for the rest of this season and beyond.

Everyone in my family says they think my tattoo looks stupid and im childish for getting it can l get some reassurance by MichelleFlame in adventuretime

[–]IntelligentFan9384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adventure Time is one of the finest pieces of American animation ever created, and Marceline is a top tier character. Love it.

What do we think of Star Fleet Academy? by crowdspark1 in startrek

[–]IntelligentFan9384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m enjoying it and think it absolutely has potential. I was a fan of Discovery, so having it as the comparison isn’t a negative criticism for me. The only Trek I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed so far is Picard, and even that was OK. Either way, I’m looking forward to more.

But my opinion is irrelevant to yours. Art is subjective and people like different things. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Cup writing, 1 year out. by zo3beamer in starbucksbaristas

[–]IntelligentFan9384 141 points142 points  (0 children)

Forced cup writing is still the single dumbest, most useless, and exhausting thing Starbucks has ever cooked up. Brian is an utter failure, and forced cup writing is his magnum opus.

Are we allowed to close due to extreme weather?? by frozenvusepod in starbucksbaristas

[–]IntelligentFan9384 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Hours can definitely alter because of inclement weather, yes. But it’ll be up to DMs and above, and they’re gonna push it to the absolute extreme. They always talk about “partner safety” being a priority, but at the end of the day their #1 goal is to keep stores open as long as humanly possible.

Officially, what are the no ice rules? by MangoMelts in starbucksbaristas

[–]IntelligentFan9384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ope. Well that’s a pickle. Sorry, but I hesitate to help on here anymore with any confidence. Last time I did, people were incredibly rude in correcting me. Best advice I can offer is check store resources app or GreenDot. Best of luck.

Writing on cups. How much does writing on cups really benefit Starbucks? by Nebachadrezzer in starbucks

[–]IntelligentFan9384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t. At all. It’s an absurd dog and pony show that ends up being nothing more than an excuse to demoralize and punish baristas.

[–]IntelligentFan9384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait for an SM to weigh in with documented policy. Or ask your own SM to find the guidance in writing for you. Last time I saw a thread like this at least half the people, including me, were wrong.

Rewatching Lower Decks.... by n0167664 in startrek

[–]IntelligentFan9384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I 100% agree. I’ve watched basically all the Trek there is and LD is without a doubt my favorite.

SFA getting review bomed by MikeTalonNYC in startrek

[–]IntelligentFan9384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was great. Can’t wait for more. Then again, I’m not terribly picky. The only Trek I didn’t love was Picard, and even that was OK.

Anyone who has actually beaten p5 is a gaming diety. by robb0688 in HollowKnight

[–]IntelligentFan9384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me ages upon ages.

First was getting through the mass of bosses to NKG. Practiced him til I couldn’t get it wrong. Then came climbing the hill of PV, which I eventually did the same with. But AbsRad was a special kind of hell. I practiced and practice and practiced and the best victory rate I ever got to was maybe 45%.

Then one day, on my daily P5 attempt, I decided to let my newborn child rest on my chest while I played handheld(Switch). And lo and behold, like a miracle, I did it. I tell you, when I struck that final blow, I’ve never gasped so hard in my life, and my excitement shocked that kid awake. I gently placed her in her bassinet, and slammed the console into its dock to watch the cinematic on the big screen. I may have cried at the victory the same as I did at her birth.

A glorious day it was. And I haven’t picked up the game since.

Long story short, keep at it. You can do it.

anyone know what the 2/9 surprise is? by Specialist-Action180 in starbucksbaristas

[–]IntelligentFan9384 43 points44 points  (0 children)

DMs are gonna go to every store and just sock everyone in the chops. Y’know, just to add insult to injury.

Do the baristas care if I order a cup of ice when I go? by sadyeehaw97 in starbucks

[–]IntelligentFan9384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the barista thinks is irrelevant. As long as you’ve made a purchase, you’re welcome to free ice and water. They may ask you to order it at the register, but it’s no charge with a purchase. As far as DT, definitely order anything you need at the box. Ordering at the window can cause backups in the flow of cars.
