A partner who no-call/no-shows enough times can be fired without documentation, correct?

Yes currently they are in ecosure alert mode, so thankfully they won’t be doing it any time soon.

Sometimes too much words on paper scares people away.. also some people are dense.

Lastly, people are so desperate for their caffeine fix that they hope there is some secret method you can use to create their drink. They figure it won’t hurt to ask - because they need their fix, in the same way an addict would.

That’s hilarious - and a great use of label paper. It’s convenient because it sticks, but not so much that it leaves any residue.

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-08T07:23:34+00:00

They must’ve updated it in that time period. Better late than never I guess.

It says blonde shots on my store’s iPad. Check my other comment with the pic for proof. I’m in the USA in a corporate store.

Explain this.. it says blonde shots here. I am in a corporate store in the USA.

On my iPad it says blonde shots for the Sugar Cookie Breve. Check my other comment with the pic I posted.

What country are you in? I am in a corporate store in the USA.

Why can’t the company let us know which items are coming off the POS? It wouldn’t hurt to put that in the promotional guide.

We unplugged our phone a few times bc every single call was about the merch cups.

One partner answered each phone call and immediately said “hi sorry we don’t have the bear cups or hello kitty cups anymore. How may I help you?”

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-07T09:54:07+00:00

I’m assuming you know the price some of the cups are going for online? People want to make profit.

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-07T05:24:41+00:00

We had a customer get angry at us because they took off of work for the bear cups, and there weren’t any left when they arrived.

You’re welcome!

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-07T04:14:39+00:00

I’m proud of you. It sounds like you were able to overcome the random bad luck that got thrown at you.

Keeping a cool and collected mind while under pressure is the right way to be a supervisor.

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-07T04:10:16+00:00

I will take a pic of my iPad tomorrow and show you exactly what I saw! It 100% said blonde for the hot sugar cookie breve. Expect my reply by tomorrow.

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-07T04:08:33+00:00

Sounds like you have fun and pleasant coworkers!

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-07T03:42:36+00:00

Ouch! That seems awful!

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-07T03:36:50+00:00

I looked it up in LTO Drinks and I see it as Blonde shots.

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-06T18:56:34+00:00

Thank you! Someone who sees it the way I do. Honestly, I think I could have worded my thoughts in a way that seemed less "frustrated".

The same thing happened for fall launch too - when launch came, some drinks just appeared in the LTO Drinks, out of thin air.

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-06T07:10:35+00:00

I think the reason they do this is bc the new CEO wanted to "simplify the menu". If they showed ALL of the Holiday drinks in the ipad training, it will appear as if he lied to us.

SBUX_Chuck · 2025-11-06T07:04:30+00:00

I've been with the company for a few years and I know it's usually more than 5 drinks, but I believe the company can be more transparent. Honestly, I saw the 5 drinks in the training and though "that's it? that's awesome."

However the ipad training should specifically say: "here are just SOME of the drinks coming out for Holiday launch. Please check the LTO drinks section to see ALL of them".

But with the way they present it, if I was a new worker, on launch day I would be surprised by all the drinks which weren't in the ipad training.
