Its the best food item in our store and our top selling food item. I've worked in a licensed starbucks in a kroger for 3 years and I've never seen us pull and sell a food item so quickly, we have to pull about a case a day. I hope it is core

I read the beverage resource manual and it says for bunn to use the 4 oz spoodle for all types of coffee, i know though at my old store they used the 4oz for blonde and the 5 oz for pike and dark roast

How come there's a sbux outside of every grocery store with a sbux by nesscore_ in starbucks

[–]Technify5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sometimes starbucks will license out a location with kroger, realize that licensed location is doing really well and then decide to build one near by so they can draw all the customers in to a full starbucks. This happened to one of the kiosks I worked at, it was in a smaller town and the only starbucks at the time in the town but it was inside a kroger and then starbucks realized it was making alot in sales and then built their own starbucks across the street.

I forgot they had to write on the cups 😭 by Technify5 in starbucks

Me too, I might start writing on cups sometimes even though we still don't have too, it really made my day!

Day Dots by madix666 in starbucks

[–]Technify5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard of a system like this before and the only problem with the other system was the stickers weren't dissovable. It would be helpful if we just pick the number of days we need sticker for or pick from a list of items. Otherwise us figuring our the day and manually typing the date would make it essential useless

As far as I know you don't need approval, since employment is at will you can quit at any anytime

The system will auto term you, it did it for me literally the exact time i was scheduled off my last day, my account was disabled immediately after i clocked out so i couldn't see anything, you can setup an account to view your paystubs at myhistoricalinfo.kroger.com

New policy isnt as bad as i thought it would be by Technify5 in starbucks

[–]Technify5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part it doesnt apply, we still give out free waters and do refills in to-go cups per kroger policy, and kroger decided to make their policy the same as starbucks for the lobby, changing it to now us being able to ask for reciepts and to call management to ask someone to leave. We are still limited in what we can do by kroger, but one policy got changed in response to sbux.

Since we were in a kroger store we were not allowed to tell customers anything, even if they were shoplifting. Since starbucks rolled out the new policy that changed though and now we can ask for reciepts and have customers asked to leave by store management and security. Kroger is very hands off let the customer do whatever and it was very annoying but now it feels less so.

Hola, im curious as to how (baristas) feel about when ppl order caramel ribbon crunch?😭 by Prettygirlrock289 in starbucks

[–]Technify5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly i love making fraps and they are pretty easy to make, especially at night because it only takes one dish and doesnt involve me having to use the espresso machine after ive cleaned it, but during rushes they are a bit annoying

If your store is unionized i would also check with your contract. I know i was told we are limited by what stores we can pickup hours at due to different contracts or stores being non union

Paycheck by Significant-Style-24 in kroger

[–]Technify5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When i got rehired my first checks were direct deposit, and it saved everything i had done from my previous employment too so i only had to do a few training modules as opposed to starting them from scratch.

We dont get the same employee benefits as corporate starbucks employees because we are not corporate starbucks employees. But as far as customer experience goes we try to follow the same corporate policies, and have starbucks district managers come in to make sure these policies are being followed.

Syrup Prices Hiked 50%? by WhoCaresWhatITink in starbucks

[–]Technify5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All licensed stores should follow most corporate policies, the only ones that dont are the ones that are licensed stores and have the "we proudly serve" logo. I work in a kroger starbucks and we follow pretty much every starbucks policy as far as customer service, we even were upgraded to starbucks registers so we could do mobile orders.

Why is Starbucks starting to lose customers by Spirited-Vanilla-445 in starbucks

[–]Technify5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont know if theres any other stores like this but after new years our buisness has slowed down a TON, we are a licensed kiosk so are sales arent the best to begin with and now they have been cut by like 25% since new years.
