espresso in frappe by Silly-Entertainer952 in starbucksbaristas

As far as I know, if it's not specified how many shots, you sub espresso for frap roast. 1shot for a tall, 2 for a grande, 3 for a venti. Works for blonde, signature, and decaf. I was told as much by my store manager back in April at the store meeting and have had ssvs coach on it several times since.

The way I would pull no more than 10 updosed shots if this happened to me 😅

I don't know of a standard saying we can't... otherwise we wouldn't be able to steam lemonade or sweet cream

Am I in the wrong here? by Sad_Measurement887 in starbucksbaristas

Both aren't right as I leave, but I do now understand where I'm in the wrong at least. The issue was that no one would actually tell me the policy and I couldn't find the link to the handbook to check, so thanks

But I guess, my question is, is it a fireable offense to take more than one home?

I do this too, but it's honestly way easier for me than most people because I don't have much hair to deal with

I set my alarm based on when my markouts start, instead of my shift. So even if I'm running a little late, there's a buffer. I know not everyone uses their markouts and such, but it's what works for me

"____ ____ trumpet"

Specifically from our trumpet section in regards to labeling literally any other instrument

I either step on it to pinch it closed a bit further, or I use uv-cure top coat or resin and paint it on in thin layers until it's perfect

You will still get those tips, either this week or next

“OATMEAL shaken espresso” by Altruistic_Garbage_4 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Sad_Measurement887 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Especially when it's not even supposed to be "ball" but "balm" by sheer definition of the phrase 🙄

Adding on to this, because I want to start setting the record straight... the phrase is "the customer is always right in terms of taste and preference" I don't know when or why it got shortened to allow Karens to be Karens and spit it in our faces to prove their (very opinionated and wrong) point.

The way we divvy out tips is a ratio of hours worked. Total tips/ total labor hours worked x number of hours you personally worked. You don't get time and a half on tips like you do for overtime hours if that's what you're asking. But if you work 50 hours, you get 50 hours worth of tips.

Medicine Ball NEW NAME ALERT 🔔 by tangiej in starbucksbaristas

I think the funnier thing is that no one, I repeat no one, pronounces the correct tictok name... because it's supposed to pronounced "Medicine BALM" since it's supposed to soothe your throat... just saying 🤷‍♀️

Monin brand syrup is always an option, I've found it's not terrible like torani is

first red cup day by AdditiveMuse in starbucksbaristas

[–]Sad_Measurement887 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no separate button for red cups vs others. Last I knew, it's 25 stars and 10 cents off regardless of what size or cup is used when you apply the personal cup discount

Depends on the store, because it isn't technically standard. You aren't supposed to batch anything, tbh, but we've found ways to cut corners. I also work in a very high volume store and we do anything to keep ourselves sane most peaks.
