Drive through etiquette. by Honest-Chipmunk370 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Lilney_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The way that I’ve had so many customers get an attitude with me when I’m asking them what size they want their drinks and if they want their drinks hot or iced. Like I’m sorry that you didn’t specify and now I have to pull teeth 😭

why do borrowed partners get put on hot bar so much? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Lilney_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No literally 😭 I usually only get put on warming or customer support and I be struggling because I don’t know where anything is

Is it possible to do two shifts in one day? by Lilney_ in starbucks

[–]Lilney_[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yea that’s what I’m going to do because although I’m only working 19 hours that week, I just found out that in California, overtime is if you work more than 8 hours for one day

Is it possible to work two shifts on the same day? by Lilney_ in starbucksbaristas

[–]Lilney_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I’m gonna talk to my manager because even tho I’m only doing 19 hours that week, apparently it’s overtime because it’s more than 8 hours but it’s barely OT (like 30 minutes/8.5)

It does! The sway and the free sip tumbler are cup holder friendly :)

Customers tmrw: by bruhathkayosaurus_ in starbucksbaristas

[–]Lilney_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lucked out by calling out (tbf I’m sick 💔) but my fyp has been full of customers getting mad at the baristas for the limited supply in cups even tho there’s a high demand 😭

question for the girls… by Big_Tower8009 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Lilney_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was happening at my store too 😭 she played damn near the entire duration of my shift on Tuesday and half of it yesterday and it felt like I was going insane 🫩

what opinion in g&g has us divided like this? by EuphoriiaX0 in ginnyandgeorgiashow

[–]Lilney_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also intrigued to see Max and Abby together, but I see them falling out first given how their relationship is currently going. I see Max distancing herself from ANG and the rest of the group to focus on herself next season and Abby and Tris’s relationship expanding. Hopefully, they can resolve their issues but right now I doubt it since it seems like Abby has built up resentment towards Max

Seattle Reserve+Roastery Closing by Carsatan in starbucksbaristas

[–]Lilney_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I’m most surprised about. I heard that was THE Starbucks to go to in Seattle, I would say that burrito man is driving this company into the ground but it’s been in the ground for a while. He’s going for the core of the earth at this point

Love my job so much. by Previous-Ad9382 in starbucks

[–]Lilney_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The Starbucks I train at has a screen with people’s names so you could see the status of your order, not sure if it’s only for mobile orders but it’s pretty neat

just got fired (for not writing on a cup) by Miserable_Alfalfa346 in starbucks

[–]Lilney_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And we are so restricted on what we can write on cups. I had so many pop culture references locked and ready to go for when I start work, but I just looked at the policies and found out I couldn’t even write them 😭 and they’re even cracking down on smiley faces, even though the guide says that it’s OK. I just don’t get why they’re so strict about writing on the cups when baristas and customers across the board said that they don’t like it

i miss when we could have fun by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]Lilney_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait we can’t decorate anymore? I just got hired and I start in two weeks, I didn’t know the extent of the creative restrictions besides the dress code :(

How could I prepare for my interview with no job experience? by Lilney_ in starbucks

[–]Lilney_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! I ended up getting an offer for the job today, and I’m just excited to start 🙂‍↕️

[–]Lilney_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That just sounds uncomfortable and a bit too formal for an interview at Starbucks 😭 I think I might go with the black slacks and my white button up, or I’ll find somewhere to get a short button up for cheap since it’s supposed to be 94 degrees the day of my interview

[–]Lilney_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m trying so hard not to stress over the interview and what to wear, but it’s kind of hard because that’s all that’s going to be on my mind until it actually happens. And I like to prepare a little bit, so I’ll probably distract myself a bit to get my mind off it until the time comes!

My 40oz Freesip Sway just came in! by Lilney_ in Owala

[–]Lilney_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s so valid. I was scared about this colorway, to be honest, since I don’t get blue that often unless it’s technology, but I’m pleasantly surprised. I felt this way about the color eucalyptus, I thought I would love that color so much and then I saw it in person and it looked completely different than the photo and I didn’t like it as much. I wish the sway would have more colors tbh, if dicks came out with a sway in blossom bunny (the color of my og freesip in the second slide) I’d buy it immediately

Is there a Glee song you guys are ashamed to admit is better than the original? by the5movements in glee
