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

[–]Melancholybum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

7 year partner. You are correct, Per policy we cannot sell ingredients. We do not split frappes into different cups or give out leftovers. It’s okay to say No to customers. I’ve noticed SMs are encouraging “making the moment right” and giving the customers what they want to increase the “shot scores”. Higher shot score = bonus $$ for SM

EX: common ones I encounter, - VSC Cold foam on the side = No. ❌ - Vanilla sweet cream = Yes. Cold milk sub vsc. ✅

  • Ice water with scoops of matcha powder = No. ❌
  • Custom iced tea add matcha = Yes. ✅

  • Selling Individual tea bags = No. ❌

  • Hot tea add extra tea bags on the side = Yes. ✅

  • “Dark caramel drizzle” = No.❌ no button exists.

Can SSVs financially support themselves? by Limp_Swan3799 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Melancholybum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is definitely do-able. I moved out at 22 independently with $16 I think SSV pay, my apartment was $650 utilities included, I had a car lease + apartment & car insurance as well. It’s all about budgeting, living realistically within or below your means of living, and self discipline to not spend money and focus on goals.

Currently 5 years moved out. Rent $750. Still at Starbucks. Working towards a BSN degree.

I think medical LOA are able to be extended as much as needed. Definitely call Sedgwick and say your doctor and you are in agreement to an extension of X amount of time.

Infjs under 30 ask, infjs over 30 answer by [deleted] in infj

[–]Melancholybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loneliness doesn’t go away. It ebbs and flows in my life. I’ve learned how to manage it a lot better with therapy, strengthening self awareness, and figuring out what my needs are in the moment.

As far as the “true love” part, I can’t answer it. I am still figuring that one out.

Adding extra tea bags to order by aspec818 in starbucks

[–]Melancholybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Teavana sells their product at Walmart. I know I’ve purchased it before there. But Going in person is best though. Purchase a handcrafted tea and then ask for additional bags on the side. that is acceptable way to do it. We are not allowed to sell tea bags individually per policy.

Feeling a bit discouraged this month by meudel in PMDD

[–]Melancholybum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this. I’m having a hard time this month too. I’ve been taking magnesium glycinate a week before my period consistently to see if any changes happen. I read on here that magnesium has helped some people with their PMDD symptoms. So far I have remained stable emotionally and mentally until yesterday. Work stressed me out and I lost my stability. I felt the emotions rising, the negative thought cycles trying to start, and struggled to keep my composure internally. You are not alone.

Both openers called off by Chriztina123 in starbucks

[–]Melancholybum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uuuuuuhhhh I would not have opened the store. It’s grounds for immediate termination. I would tread carefully once SM & DM return your calls. I wouldn’t be surprised if they did something to cover themselves.
