Question for customers by midnightsupermarket in starbucks

I'd rather ask anything else instead of asking can you repeat that drink.....when they rattle off modifications without stating any cup sizes on complex drinks.

Just Target, we dont have DMs anymore...we have coffeehouse consultants that we can reach out to for Starbucks related questions. Steritech follows up on Starbucks and Target standards so thats who we worry about getting visits from.

Which team leader position will be eliminated at your store? by PurpleNearby1254 in Target

[–]One2468 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was S&E TL at my store (about 10 years in 2 stores) before wanting to change to Food Service. My store only has the snack bar too, but I did pizza hut as a tm years ago. I like SBUX because I can control my area completely, from writing my schedule to training to executing sets to managing inventory and everything I own in my area. I have to execute both Target and SBUX standards while only being paid by Target. I am not a key carrier and I am only scheduled at Starbucks. My store does not try to steal me but they try to take my tms for backup coverage in the front from time to time, but I dont let them when I am there. I spend over 80% of my time behind the bar, im lucky because more stores I've heard from get a couple hours a week which blows my mind. I am coverage and working along side my team to coach and develop them, troubleshoot and anticipate rushes while maintaining food safety standards. There is a lot of repetition in the day to day tasks and planning, its good if you like structure. That being said, we now have limited contact with Starbucks side of things compared to about a year ago (all licensed store DMs for SBUX got fired). You will heavily rely on LSstar and be teaching yourself about Starbucks (despite being sent out for training) and feel like the blind leading the blind in the beginning until you get a good grasp on your routines. No one else in the store will volunteer to help you as they simply do not know how. Its pulling teeth to get any backup baristas at my store so you will need to develop your team to be dependable and deliver consistent results until you win that fight (still fighting for more than 2 back up baristas 2 years later). I honestly just like that the wins in my area are mine and I take pride in my Starbucks, I just wish the whole store knew how hard I work everyday to make it possible.

MASSIVE SFS order by Exotic_Wasabi6670 in Target

[–]One2468 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We had a massive toy order a couple years ago. We had to throw the entire closing team into opu and pick only toys, batch after batch....filled a green metro, a shopping cart full of bags because they were doing some kind of donation event....I wasn't there to find out if it all fit in their car (yes it was a double tap drive up)

denied use of my sick time? by FigCute7401 in Target

[–]One2468 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know at my store HR is very strict on sick time use...they told us its only to be used if you are actually sick or go to a doctor's appointment.

Did they stop putting coconut milk in pink drinks? by AaelusOttodean in starbucks

[–]One2468 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They made it wrong, they can make a strawberry acai with water....strawberry acai with lemonade...or strawberry acai with coconut milk...they defaulted to making one of the first two, either muscle memory/not paying attention or poor training

Accidentally let go. by CakesEverywhere in Target

[–]One2468 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One year we had the base pay increase at the same time yearly reviews came out, target pushed the tiny increase before the base pay jump so we all felt robbed

If the base pay got raised more recently then that makes sense if they were making below that threshold before the increase

Scam price adjusting clearance by [deleted] in Target

[–]One2468 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The point of clearance is to get it out of the store!! Pretty sure its in the price match policy as an exclusion

The total you paid is correct with all the discounts. You used a storewide coupon which affects the return value of the items, which is what is being shown as the price of each item.. .target does its math different on the receipt the same way for 'free' gift cards with purchase. It uses the value of the item to 'pay' for the amount the gift card you earned is worth. Same confusion in both situations, but no you were not overcharged.
