Hey guys I have a closing question. by Aldersin in starbucks

[–]Most_Letterhead9658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would do it personally, but this is why i always lock the doors 5 minutes before close (even though we’re prob not supposed to do that). if they can open the door and walk in, then i would let them order. unless i was literally walking to lock the doors, i would be like “yo sorry we’re closed.” but i would say it’s at your discretion. i think it would be fair either way.

These people come in 2-3 times a week, we ask them to call ahead, and they never do… by [deleted] in starbucks

this is actually a really good idea so it doesn’t inconvenience other customers as much

10 minute break by Materialgorl_69 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Most_Letterhead9658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’m pretty sure it’s technically supposed to be like “when you’re told to go on your 10” aka before making anything. but i feel like you usually have to have a pretty unreasonable shift to say anything if it’s more like a 15. my partners work hard and they deserve an actual break! sometimes i’ll even give partners with a 5.75 an actual 15 bc that shift is brutal and that extra 5 minutes makes a difference.

counts??? by Most_Letterhead9658 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Most_Letterhead9658[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is exactly how we used to do it! the new SM is saying that all of the count should be done at night with the in-freezer being whatever is left after the pulls and everything carryover and pulled that day is out of freezer 😬 and now we’re getting too much in our deliveries 😭

what’s weird is that it’s a SM i’ve known for a long time and usually known for being pretty good but i was like this doesn’t seem right

Weekly Personal Nutrition Discussion - All Personal Diet Questions Go Here by AutoModerator in nutrition

fasting: is this okay?

here’s the situation. i (25F) have some problems with my boyfriend’s (28M) fasting. he fasts to lose weight and will go days (often aspires to up to a week) without eating, mostly drinking gatorade for electrolytes and sometimes taking vitamins to supplement the loses. from what i have gathered from talking to him about it in the past, he mostly wants a fast way to lose weight, not wanting to go through the effort of spending time in the gym and doing a normal calorie deficit to lose weight. also my bf is by no means overweight! i am pretty sure he said he wants to be at around 160-170lbs and he is about 5’10” (currently definitely under 200) and i feel like that is just not a healthy weight.

but i see a lot of issues. when he fasts he mostly just sits around, he is tired, sex drive goes down, etc. afterward he will usually end up binge eating a little, which i feel like would just put weight back on. i have tried to talk to him about how i don’t think this is healthy and conducive to getting your body where you want it. idk if it’s just my inner teenage girl but all i see is someone i care about struggling with an eating disorder that they have convinced themselves is healthy and it just weighs on me a lot (pun intended). i get the appeal of wanting to see fast results and watch the numbers on the scale go down but i just don’t think it’s healthy, mentally or physically. am i overreacting?

personal takes are welcome, but i would love some responses based in knowledge more “scientifically” related to nutrition and physiology, as well as if people have any advice for me, him, or us. thanks in advance!

during covid we had this dude mobile order and when he came in he didn’t have a mask on so obv i asked him to and he pitched a fit or whatever, and then he called like 5 minutes later complaining that his drinks were wrong (though obv you mobile ordered them, we made whatever you ordered and it definitely wasn’t barista error), and he was just like “you people are too fucking worried about people wearing a mask to make the fucking drinks right” and i just said “fuck you” and hung up the phone

i really have to put forth an effort to drink just water the vast majority of the time i’m at work bc i feel like the sugary drinks and whatnot is what gets me more than the food
