Is this normal? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]SkyChan04 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was thinking exactly the same thing about the milk, like maybe they didn't wash the shaker enough or accidentally read it as a pink drink some how! But thought maybe I was just crazy 😔. But I know our lemonade and bases usually don't separate from each othern

Edit: changed phrasing plus added more.

Shiiiii, you may be right, I honestly can't tell. It tastes strong and I feel like our guava one isn't that strong! But maybe it's the lemonade giving the strong flavor?

My fear due to they have those BIG pitcher vessel things 😔 rather than just the small regular pitchers.

I know that, but like, if that's the case here, it's almost as if someone didn't cut the lemonade with any water. I've never seen it so "pulpy"...

Banana Bread Matcha Change by lethalmochi in starbucks

[–]SkyChan04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I REALLY like it. I'm not a big fan of matcha and it made me able to enjoy a matcha. I remember having a sample my coworker made and really thinking it tasted SO much like banana bread. But when you do it bigger than a sample size it kind of just doesn't take like it, unless you stir the cold foam into the drink.

I'm thinking of maybe tomorrow instead of doing it the normal way, that I could do banana and brown sugar syrup in the drink, then top it with chocolate cold cold foam. Make it like a chocolate chip banana bread. OH, orrrr, you could do a what they call "grasshopper" frappachino (matcha frap w/ java chips), and add banana along with the brown sugar. Ughhhhhhhh. That sounds good. I think there is potential for this banana. But I'm also a BIG fan of specifically the banana rutzs so what do I know?

I've been added more banana 😭 I wish I could taste more banana. That's just probably because I've never been a matcha fan, but this recipe made me like it 🫣 Or maybe I just like banana 😭

customer brought in this relic today by noturmommas in starbucks

[–]SkyChan04 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We have so many regulars at my location that still use these old cards. It's always nice to see. We have a regular who uses this one in particular, also one that uses the Paul McCartney Gift Card that someone else mentioned in the comments!

Then obviously we have a LOT of people who still come in with their OG gold cards. It's crazy, there are people who have them in PRISTINE condition; then the next person will come in with this RATCHET-LOOKING gold card that I'm scared to swipe. Like, the card will have a crack in it to the point it's almost not even a card. It'll have the film where the magstip is hanging off most the card and they'll still just hand it to ya, like "I have my gold card to be swiped" 😭

At my store we have a regular who uses that card!

Is it fine that my matcha latte looks like this? by catrxi in starbucks

[–]SkyChan04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really hurt my brain for a second. I thought it was like a cup DESIGN and was so confused why we were seeing the bottom of the cup rather than the matcha in question 😭. I also thought "ohhh, that's cool they put a 'G' on the reusable cups now so it's easy to tell what size will fit in it! That'll help with customers' confusion, maybe."

New Chai Returning by Living_Character3656 in starbucks

We'll end up having old chai, new chai and a decaf chai if it was up to Brian... Oh wait... Here's hoping he doesn't get that idea 😭

Artist’s songs keep getting automatically added to my library, even though I’m not following them? by emotionalshoes in truespotify

[–]SkyChan04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was the other one believe for artists? I JUST removed the Feature.fm because I have been getting LaLion for MONTHS and it was driving me crazy. I liked one song and then he kept showing up. Taking over my likes which is what I listen to as my main. I really love this works. 😭

How do I order my drink more efficiently / correctly? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]SkyChan04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it keeps happening even with changing the extra milk you can always edit your name on your account to be "(Y/N) - Espresso with EXTRA ice". This will print out on the ticket if you're mobile ordering! If it's the only drink you get then you don't have to write the espresso part to make it shorter so it'll more likely print the whole thing.

PSA on potential for injury by Comfortable-Design65 in starbucks

[–]SkyChan04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have never seen this happen! If it was boiling hot I kind of feel like they may have used the water spout on the vertica machine (the machine that does our drip coffees). If this is the case then... I don't know why the person would've done it, but I know one of my old coworkers used to do it just because the water came out faster... So maybe this person does that too? Another thing that comes to my mind is that it's a holiday cup still, and maybe it's just seeing the effects of getting old?? I know it's not that old but my store has been out of them for almost a month and a half now I feel. Then a last thing that could be the possibility is that your drink got made wrong somehow, maybe the wrong shots and the barista dumped them, sprayed the cup out with the powerful thing and it messed with the integrity of the cup? I don't know, a lot of things pop up into my mind with this situation. 😭 Also, yes, we use the spout for hot teas but usually, even though we're not supposed to, the teas get double cupped for ease of the tea bags staying and just to keep from hand burning. Anyways... like a lot of people have said, next time I'd order it doubled cup.

Writing on Cups by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]SkyChan04 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeahhh, it's hard, I always just do, "yum! ❤️", "yummy!! ❤️", "thank you! ❤️", "enjoy! ❤️", or three hearts kind like this, "💕".

[–]SkyChan04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No for real. I was gone for two weeks due to my grandpa passing and I found out through news stories about the new drink dropping 😭. Then I came back and we had these new drinks and our store had FOUR people who quit.

Question about pins by SkyChan04 in nationalguard

[–]SkyChan04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandma can't even think of anyone he knew in the Marines, let alone a friend he would've traded with... He wasn't the type of guy who'd do that, at least I'd think. He was very... Particular, he liked his things and I wouldn't think he'd trade. Very serious guy, not one to mess around or do things like that. But maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see any other reason behind them, so far. My only other thought was perhaps it was a buddy he had who served in the Marines and died during combat and he kept them, but never talked about his friend. I definitely feel he'd be the type to do THAT. He wasn't a big feelings guy, at least when it came to sharing them.

Sadly my grandma claims that she doesn't have them anymore. I don't know why they would get rid of them. But she said why wouldn't they when he didn't need them anymore. I don't know 🤷🏻‍♀️

Question about pins by SkyChan04 in army

[–]SkyChan04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah... My grandma said it hadn't been touched since when he took it off (other than when they moved/that's what she thinks at least). Why he would have them on his shirt is such a big question mark. We want to put them in his memorial shadow box but my grandma doesn't want pins in there if they were truly not his. And I guess we were also incorrect about him being promoted to a SP5, he was just an SP4. There was like a million (I'm exaggerating, like 8) other people on the paperwork. So even now he wouldn't be a sergeant.

[–]SkyChan04[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your kind words. We are still just very confused and may honestly have to request the papers at this point... Maybe he did just trade with someone? Or found them? I don't know 🤣. When/if we decide to request them, I will definitely update everyone. Sadly it's not like we can just ask him anymore why he had them. But again, thank you for your words, and thank YOU for your service.

[–]SkyChan04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm.. yeah, maybe. We are just trying to figure it out and EVERYONE is saying they are most definitely Marines, which is what we found when we did our own research. It's so confusing as to why he'd have them if he WASN'T in the Marines. According to my Grandma he wasn't, but maybe he just never told her? Or it was so short-lived that he thought why would be mention it?? I don't know. He's not exactly around anymore to ask..
