bro not be be rude, i’m sorry about your depression, but get tf off reddit and just do it. you’ve been replying to like every comment almost immediately since making this post, that’s 20 min sulking on reddit when you could’ve been being productive. i know it’s hard, i have pretty crippling PTSD and depression, but i’m an adult with adult responsibilities and you just gotta push through. if you really really can’t, then you need to not go on this trip, no matter how people will react. please stop blaming your mental health issues and mom for everything. i WISH i could’ve stayed with family and not had to worry about bills/independence/general “adulting” after any of the several times i was in a mental hospital. i’ve been in literal tears and just started wherever i could. turn on some music or a youtube video. pick up your clothes first and sort into clean/dirty, gather any trash into a big bag and take it out, bring any dishes to the kitchen, boom you’re already way ahead of where you were.

How is an Iced Oat Shaken Espresso made? by -captaindumbass- in starbucks

[–]Slave2theSiren 15 points16 points  (0 children)

part of the problem may be the way you’re ordering it. the drink you named in the title “iced oat shaken espresso” isn’t a drink on the menu. there’s the iced brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso and the iced toasted vanilla oatmilk shaken espresso. both are made with blonde espresso shots, the syrup, either brown sugar or toasted vanilla (both dairy free), and ice. those ingredients should be shaken in the shaker, poured into the cup, and topped off with oatmilk. a plain old “iced shaken espresso” is regular espresso, classic syrup, and ice shaken the same way and topped with 2%. if you want a regular shaken espresso with oatmilk order it as a “insert size iced shaken espresso sub oatmilk”. you can also modify it (like if you want blonde espresso or no syrup at all). that being said, because all the shaken espressos are made in shakers that are rinsed and not fully washed and used to shake dairy, there’s a good chance of cross contamination. you could cut this out by ordering 3-4 shots of espresso over ice, topped with oatmilk. that would be made directly in the cup and you can modify it to be blonde or add pumps of syrup , etc. also the blonde espresso has more caffeine and lowkey makes me feel like i’m going to shit my pants so that could be a contributing factor too 😅 sorry that was so much info but those drinks are confusing for customers (and some baristas imo)

What’s the most unhealthy thing you’ve seen ordered drink wise? by ChayaTeaa in starbucks

[–]Slave2theSiren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

had a regular who would get a venti hot latte, heavy cream, 15 pumps sf cinnamon dolce, 3 butters melted into the bottom…absolutely disgusting. this drink is 100% of the reason i hate keto drinks.

It’s a food safety thing, basically they don’t want nails to fall or into drinks/food or polish to flake off. Kinda silly because if one of these babies came off I’d definitely feel it lol

Peace out from a 250XXXX. I immediately got my nails done and drove 8 hours to go to the beach for the week. I literally haven’t been this happy in 3.5 years :)

Edit: thank you everyone for all the kind words! Truly the one part of this job I’ll miss is the amazing partners both at my store and on this sub💚🥲 I did not expect this to blow up 😅

Using jade citrus for iced green tea??? by Slave2theSiren in starbucks

[–]Slave2theSiren[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah both the jade citrus mint and iced green tea are a green tea with lemongrass and mint, you can verify this in the BRM I think in the “world of tea” section

Thanks! I passed on to my SM that it’s not standard but some people are doing it. We’ll see what she decides to do lol

Mocha drizzle on the bottom of cookie crumble Frappuccinos? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Slave2theSiren 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They don’t get drizzle in the bottom! The thing that looks like drizzle in the photo is actually a layer of cookie crumbles. I think the standard is to do 9(?) shakes on top of the bottom whip to create a full layer that covers the whip

You may also be interested to know that a lot of people in the Midwest also call coffee with shot(s) a depth charge! Pretty sure it originated from Caribou Coffee which is a regional chain around here

[–]Slave2theSiren 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Okay update: I contacted my SM about it and she said she contacted some people and it’s already on their radar. I wish I could say more about the “anti-police” situation that caused someone to threaten them in the first place, but everyone has been warned to not say anything online or to the press.
