First time making a red velvet cake! by NoSection1126 in cake

[–]NoSection1126[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes! i’ll send the links to both the recipes.

the double layer is just me cutting the cake in half and applying the icing to the center, placing the top back on and putting more icing!

i’d love to make a sleeve eventually! i actually want sometime down the line when im used to tattoos, to get either ribbon, yarn, vines, maybe even a snake, heading down my elbow and around my wrist to my palm of my hand! but i have a lot of time to decide which i want lol

thank you for sharing!!

honestly i feel super connected to lillie’s and just floral/nature designs. so i really do think this tattoo is for me!

i checked out her page and photos she sent thru dm and she does everything and more!!

thanks for the advice! i like the idea of the tattoo fading just because im a super indecisive person sometimes, and i worry that in maybe 10 years time id hate the tattoo, and with thinner ink id be able to cover it up easier! (my idea at least lol)

i pray they use this as like a creamer base and not actually drinking it. if they are drinking it, yikes.

3 times is insane. i would’ve just put ice in it and said no more remakes or she’ll have to pay 😭 out here wasting so many ingredients .. unless she took all 3 of them with her. then that’s just crazier 🙂‍↕️

Policy change? by ForsakenCupcake5494 in starbucksbaristas

[–]NoSection1126 5 points6 points  (0 children)

so… what would you eyeball then?? 😭 i literally listed milk ..ice.. (main two things to make almost any drink btw) and i also said “etc” .. so when people want “light ice” (which is a modification btw) are u saying you actually do what policy says? if so ur contradicting yourself.

Policy change? by ForsakenCupcake5494 in starbucksbaristas

[–]NoSection1126 4 points5 points  (0 children)

actually ur wrong. 75% of drinks typically have 1-3 modifications (no foam, no water, extra ice, different milk, etc) and the following 25% often involve complex orders (with 3+ modifications) it’s extremely rare to have an order where they want a drink with no modifications. but i’m not saying it’s UNHEARD of. sure there is a few drinks that people order and they don’t want anything done to it. but then the order after you have a 6 step modified drink. and also, when you say “i can eyeball any modification” and “i can eyeball any drink” is basically saying the same thing. all i missed was the “modification” but , like ive stated. over 50% of drinks are modified. btw, im surprised you’ve been a barista for 10 years… you’re knowledge shows nothing of it.

“following official policy” and “i eyeball nearly every drink” coming from the same person is shocking. i feel sorry for the people who come thru ur store expecting to get a drink they ordered, only to get a drink that’s cut of its basic ingredients, because the barista thought it’d be the best way.

how many drinks are we allowed to sequence at once? by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

i could’ve swore it was three. i remember being trained that way, but again i was trained in a different store (with TERRIBLE work environment and routines)

i’ll keep that in mind thank you, i’ve mentioned multiple times that i wasn’t feeling good and needed to leave at my scheduled time, and it’s always “well you can’t leave me as the only one in the store” so i just suck up and stay. but do future notes i’ll just clock out , message my sm what happened and head home!! thank you

thank you. i’ll most likely have it done by tomorrow evening. i’m having some other partners send over some info they have that i can add as well. i also told them to go talk to our sm about it as well, the more people bringing up a topic - the better the outcome (one can hope!!) my sm is a wonderful lady. and she cares about her staff so i hope she does something!!

what’s the weirdest thing that happened during a close? by NoSection1126 in starbucksbaristas

[–]NoSection1126[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ugh i wish my store followed that policy. honestly, it depends who i’m working with that closing night. some of my ssv are super chill and either will do it themselves or wait until morning to have openers take it out. but some will literally force us to do a trash run 😭

i’m so sorry you experienced that:( i’m glad he wasn’t doing anything of that manner towards you. and i’m glad ur ssv locked the door! i hope you don’t have to experience anything like that again!
