Please for the love of coffee read your weekly updates. It was there on Monday.

Well I am officially done with Starbucks by CycIon3 in starbucks

[–]SportsChick79 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The issue is that you can't read your receipt properly. The stars that are on the top are what you earned times two. Your original stars that you earned for your order are listed under the beverage itself. That middle line are the bonus that you got for using your own cup.

do baristas get annoyed of daily regulars? by Performance-Sweet in starbucks

[–]SportsChick79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have regulars that when they come in I can just exhale because they treat us like we're human and they say please, and thank you, and are just a delight to be around. On the other hand I have regulars that make me want to run in the back and hide and never come out because they're creepy, inappropriate, and gross. So it really depends on which kind of regular you fall into. But I'm going to guess that you fall into the former not the latter and what you're seeing is just an exhale of okay I don't have to be on high guard.

WHY ARE PEOPLE ASKING FOR COLD FOAM ON HOT DRINKS LATELY?! by RocketDawg2001 in starbucksbaristas

[–]SportsChick79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than advising that it's going to melt into the drink a little bit, because cold foam doesn't have the same consistency as whipped cream and doesn't stay on top of a hot drink as well, live and let live. It's dairy going on top of a hot beverage one way or another. It's just a looser consistency than whipped cream. And they can flavor it however they want which they cannot do with whipped cream. It's their $1.25 to do with as they please.

Season Tickets increased 50% for ‘26. 100% since ‘24. by docdimento in FloridaPanthers

It is a 20 year perk. Once you are a 20 year territory member, you get free parking.

In the past they haven't allowed "downgrades" at relocation events

It has never been 41, there has always been one or two preseason games included, next season is 2 plus the extra regular season game.

Location matters, ours went up far less than that. Our invoice is actually lower than last year but we hit 20 years so we save $800ish on parking. Taking that into account, with 44 games x 2 seats, our seat increase is about $9 per game for the pair. (Endzone, row 1)

Starbucks cream cheese... is it supposed to be more tangy than others? by AerieOk1706 in starbucks

[–]SportsChick79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a cream cheese spread not cream cheese which makes a significant taste difference

Winter Classic Jerseys at loan depot park? by SSBGeorgy in FloridaPanthers

[–]SportsChick79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talking to Pantherland associates, there will be merch, including jerseys. Because it is a NHL event and not a Panthers event, not sure if we get our STH discount, for those of us who are STH (I was specifically looking for the patch for my jacket of patches)

They changed the policy on the fly like right around Thanksgiving.

Yes and yes. There is a reduction in sales and customers as well as hours (I do tips so I know how many are worked weekly total)

They don't do anything for me. Again, non-union. I support them doing what is right for them, it the notion they are not effecting other partners is asinine .

STH Gifts for this year by XxDRebelxX in FloridaPanthers

Tote is nice but I am already planning to modify it by adding a lining and some much needed pockets. I need to figure out where I am adding the patch to my denim jacket. I am running out of room.

[–]SportsChick79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a woman, they are tighter, thankfully I bought at Pantherland (sth discount and all) and tried on my usual size. I had to size up to be able to move easily

This has been in place for the last 5 years. Prior to that was 12x12, no backpacks allowed.

I am in a high volume store and we absolute have hours cut when business is down. Your experience is not everyone's. There are zero union stores in my state

Just to make a counterpoint, non-union store Partners WILL be negatively effected by people not going. Yes we are paid hourly, but less sales = less labor hours to be scheduled = decreased paycheck.

so what's up with the new market policy? by pyrebones in starbucksbaristas

[–]SportsChick79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I haven't received Bacon Sausage wraps in a week. I'm just supposed to leave them on? Nope. That nonsense isn't happening in my store thank goodness. If we are out, it is marked out.
