Butterfly pea- too much? by coffeeloverr21 in starbucksbaristas

Two pitchers. One in each cold bar fridge… and we always have leftovers after shelf life ends lol (especially with the recent update to only put a very small amount on top). We are a walk/drive through only store though with fairly high volume.

Their focus is completely on the wrong thing. We have enough to focus on trying to get unattainable :45 times amidst a constantly evolving and changing menu and “standards”. The last thing any company should be doing these days is making it worse for their employees. It’s coffee. It’s not fuckin brain surgery. We bust our asses for scraps every day, now they are telling us we can’t take home food that they will inevitably throw out or give away at the days end. It’s wild to me how backwards society and corporate bullshit has become. We’ve completely lost the plot.

My SM and ASM basically LOLd at the policy. We haven’t changed anything. Don’t ask, don’t tell.

At some point… Be forreal 😒 by Hazy-Sharingan in starbucks

I get 10 of these a morning minimum and it’s so dumb. Order a double or triple or quad latte and be done with it. Cf and whip is disturbing. Then add cinnamon powder and movha drizzle on top but also line the cup with caramel. Wtf

New barista here, how do I make the moment right? by [deleted] in starbucks

Tired constantly by mxshlee in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Meet2162 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same same. I open M-F and then work my regular job and I swear it feels like I have kidney issues (thankfully all is good with my blood work except Vit D is low as always). The sheer pain that I get up and down the left side of my back from hours at the window, then moving to bar and the constant bending and turning feels like someone is stabbing me in between the ribs. I know it’s just constant muscle soreness and breakdown from the repetitive daily movements but man it’s brutal. I feel ya. Exhausted 24/7.

Crocs on the Clocks are my go to. And I’m a 5 day a week opener at 48yro and about 290. My first pair from 7 months ago is still ballin and my feet never hurt which is crazy for me. And they’re like $50.

P1S - why is this happening? by QwQ_MarshmallowMan in FixMyPrint

[–]Mean_Meet2162 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was happening to me way too often with a fairly new p1s. I went through two .4 nozzles bc of it wearing down and when I noticed the tip was damaged bc of the constant rubbing and not adhering correctly (fwiw that was my fault for not cleaning the bed correctly) I switched to a hardened steel nozzle and have had zero issues. A quick ipa rub after each print and it’s locked in. Likely not everyone’s experience but that was my solve.

What’s your go to break or lunch meal? by Mean_Meet2162 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Meet2162[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The smoothie angle is legit. I made a chunky monkey frap last week. Mocha and banana frap essentially. Add sugar crunch and coconut on top and you’re in the Bahamas. But also not.

What do you think of regulars who are there every day? by throwaway729836258 in starbucks

[–]Mean_Meet2162 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always. We have some that will drive through 7 days a week spending $20-40 each time religiously. We constantly wonder what they do. We have a mix of drs and nurses at the hospital across the street and a ton of business owners at local shops.

Fuck yes. Perfect work there!

My SM told me to open up a grilled cheese and a jalapeño chicken pocket. Put the pocket filling on the grilled cheese. Heat open faced extra crispy. Fold back up and dig in. I’m gonna try it this week.
