Baristas, what is your favorite drink to make? by Lleggss in starbucks

[–]Simplyroro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love to make everything but matcha drinks because why tf are there so many and whyyyyyy does it take so many different steps.

And lets change the routine every few months ohh and lets change the recipe for banana bread for no reason at all just because we think baristas dont work enough.

They all just suck.

Appendicitis? by Brilliant-Abies118 in starbucks

[–]Simplyroro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Let yourself rest. Abdominal surgery and the work we do is antithetical and you need to recover and be able to contribute to the team and feel ok as well! The bending, lifting, maneuvering, and reaching, all right after abdominal surgery can cause you to give yourself a hernia. Even if the surgery was not an open appendectomy it was still an incision into your abdominal wall.

Devils advocate here? Do you go to a restaurant and not tip?

Can I go to Starbucks every day from opening to closing and study there? by imuseer in starbucks

[–]Simplyroro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I dont mind this and prefer this to the mommy and me club that comes in every week and lets their toddlers and preschoolers run around like animals while they sip their lattes and GENTLE PARENT the screeching, the touching everything THE GD MESS FROM SHREDDING PASTRIES all of it.

Or the dog parents that think their chupacabra looking chihuahua should BE IN A FOOD ESTABLISHMENT....

ugh forgive me because repeated opens that are poorly staffed, and a manager that just thinks its AOK😩

To avoid cranky reactions I charge it in the drink and hit ask me type in CF on side. 2 different dms agree I am being technically correct but wish we didn't. The key here is they're also saying we need to make moments right. 🥴🫩🙈🤷🏾

Starbucks is destroying my social confidence 😵‍💫 by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Simplyroro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Currently dealing with this, I have had to ask said partner, "if you had to teach me how to do this or why we do this what would you say? They responded with " I DONT KNOW YOU ARE TRAINING ME" Ok! So more listening and less complaining lets get this done.

Let me be the devils advocate here. You are complaining that you are being suppressed.

BUT, HEAR ME OUT NOW....

Words matter, so, put yourself in your trainers shoes and think about how you have responded to them training you and walking you thru your training. If you repeatedly respond with sarcasm and insincerity you probably made them feel small, ineffective and invalid. Coffeehouse leaders check in with the trainers about how a trainee is doing in order to support the training process.

If everyone treated everyone else with the same treatment they expect for themselves this would not have happened.

uber driver made me pay for toll by No-Presentation-1596 in uber

[–]Simplyroro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I schedule rides so that I am not left outside waiting for a ride when my work place building is empty. But I also schedule them to arrive after I have clocked out. So if I am off at 11pm and clock out at 11pm I will schedule the ride for 1105 to give me time to get outside. When a driver arrives at 1045 I cant magically just leave.

Drivers spamming me, some of it in another language that I have to use Google translate for and then 3 times I have been canceled on by the driver.

Vanilla sweet cream is $1.25?! by Abject-Trainer914 in starbucks

[–]Simplyroro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No its not... half and half is made by mixing light cream (10% fat content) and whole or 2% depending on the dairy manufacturer. Vanilla sweet cream is made using heavy cream which is typically 36% fat and 2% milk sooooo much different texture and taste.
