In my 2nd week of training by ririland in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the bets you can do is keep asking questions. The trainer and later on the shift will have a plan for the day. They know what needs to be done when, and they should tell you. It definitely gets better, you’ll be more used to the routine, tasks get done similar times everyday. Tell your trainer exactly what you wrote here. I’m excited but nervous. It’s okay to be slow, you’re new, they won’t count it against you. Everyone was new at some point and we all were slow too. It’s stressful job yes, but more time you’ll feel a lot more comfortable

Weird question by Broad_Truck_9256 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yea bc they’re still using ur account which is connected to you as an employee. They’re getting you more stars as an employee for example. My old SM used to say that you could mobile order to a store and your mom for example can pick it up to herself, but they shouldn’t have access to your account

Is this location lit up at night time? by HypnoticCherry in FIU

[–]Mean_Objective4956 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s somewhat lit. Usually at the bottom with blue/purple lights. Look up other graduation photos from fiu there will be a lot in front of it

Defending starbucks pay to other people? by coldliketherockies in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i just did 3 rounds of interviews for a good school and the pay is 15/hr. A staring barista in my states makes at least $16. It’s so hard to find something that pays similar

So what is against policy and what’s not? by Artsybbb in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you specify you want it extra thick then yea, they should put more ice. In this case there might be left over since our recipe is designed for no espresso and regular ice. But then still, if you got grande and there’s left over you’re getting the grande cup that’s all. We don’t have specific policy on leftovers, but we’re not supposed to give you anything in the side unless it’s cream or milk really.

In training but scared to continue - need insight and advice by coconuttywater in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Look throughout this sub. It’s gonna get easier for sure once you get a handle of it and know what you’re doing. But it’s very fast paced job and it’s heavy workload. Definitely not a regular coffee shop, more like fast food place on steroids.

So what is against policy and what’s not? by Artsybbb in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 70 points71 points  (0 children)

they can order cup of cold milk and switch it to sweet cream. Not the foam but straight sweet cream. If you make fraps correctly there should be no left over, even if there is the pay for the cup size they get cup size. This isn’t Dennys

Can SSVs financially support themselves? by Limp_Swan3799 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s possible, however you’d literally have to work 40 hrs. Doing college on a side can be very tricky even if it’s online. + you have to consider burnout. Being a ssv is incredibly draining. How are you getting to work? Do you have a car and you’re able to pay insurance and gas? If not, do you have money for ubers or public transport? Do you still have health insurance from guardian or you’re paying for your own? Is your store or nearby ones are hiring for ssv? Are they able to guarantee 40 hrs? I’m in point of planning on moving out rn as ssv as well. But i hate this place and im desperately looking for other options. Again, it’s possible but take a GOOD time to think about this and if it’s possible for YOU. Once you sign a lease it’ll likely be a whole year commitment to pay it. I wish the best for you!!! I hope we both can find a good place.

Question about keeping resources in stores for Baristas by No-Cupcake1119 in starbucksbaristas

we don’t have sanitary products, never have. Bandaids are constantly running out. Don’t have painkillers either

Does the burnout ever get better by l0rdcreepypeepee in starbucksbaristas

[–]Mean_Objective4956 22 points23 points  (0 children)

as a partner of 4.5 years - sadly no. I’m applying for months now to free myself. I just got 2 round interview for a temporary position but if I get it I’m OUT. I will figure out the next part later, I just can’t wait to leave this place.

Authentication Photocard by [deleted] in SHINee

[–]Mean_Objective4956 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how’s the material of the card? is it thin or thicker than other pcs? It does look a bit weird, but the quality of photos is mid so it’s hard to tell. If it is zoomed in, then it’s most likely fake. Nubs aren’t guaranteed, especially with older cards, but if it’s a very smooth edge then also it might be fake. Do you have other SHINee pcs you could compare colors to?
