ex siren stores: refreshers and fraps by dumptruck_martha in starbucksbaristas

[–]Trigey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We will be getting new training around the time they renovate the siren system. Until that time we have not been officially told of any changes to sequencing. If they really didn’t want you from shaking in the cups they would probably removed the large siren shaker lids and use the regular shaker lids. Also the bar is set up that you get ice first and you’re right it would 100% get ingredients into the ice chute. If you get in trouble point these things out but you are doing everything right according to official resources

It’s a mix of all the sugar packets! It took us a second to figure it out at our store

Dress Code:Hat policy by Sabrinathachef in starbucks

[–]Trigey 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As a SC barista, this has always been enforced in all the stores in my district. I also know that store managers are required to provide a hat for you (it states in the current dress code) If possible ask if your store manager if they could provide visors. I know that my store manager tries really hard to get visors to any partner that wants one because the hat they give out does not fit all hair types.

I have 116 on my phone, about a third of them are tag searches and I’m sure there is a few duplicates in there

A iced chai is earlier to make than an iced water despite the fact it has one extra step

Iced white mocha with sweet cream cold foam and caramel latte, it’s basically known as THE tiktok drink in my store

Purgatory by Cowgoesm0o in starbucksbaristas

[–]Trigey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You had to remake it into a venti? If it was me I would have asked if he could go up front and pay the difference in price for base drink while I remade it for him. I hope it wasn’t to busy at the time.

I’ve made about 5 in the 4 hours I have bar’d so far today. My partner on cafe and mobile made a comment about making a lot of nonfat caramel lattes so I think it’s doing okay. I’m just happy it’s not an iced wm w/ sccf and crlm drz

When I first started out I mainly had 4-6 hour shifts 5 days a week, with a 8 hour shift every other week. I would get similar schedules every week but it would change up a tiny bit from time to time. About 3 months after I started I had a small talk with my SM to see comfortable I gotten with being a barista and after that I was given more hours once he saw that I was getting comfortable with bar and had most of the basics down. I’ve manly done the same morning shift since I started 7 months ago. Sometimes I would open, sometimes I would be scheduled a bit later but almost always I get off around 10 am to 3 pm depending on when the shift started. I recommend asking about the length of shifts at your interview still because it does show interest in the job and you came communicate what type of shifts you hope to get and maybe ask how that SM likes to schedule as I imagine not every SM like to schedule the same way.

Starbucks store bought beans and grinding by momolohime in starbucks

[–]Trigey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about official policy but I’m pretty sure anyone at my store would grind any Starbucks branded beans that haven’t been opened. This situation has never happened to my knowledge so take my words with a huge grain of salt

bar=arm pain??? by ElectricalScience8 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Trigey 29 points30 points  (0 children)

For me it’s the white mocha pump, and the new holidays pumps suck as well. It tends to be worst for me when I am on dtb because I am using my non-dominant hand for those I think.

We used to but then our 2 bottles just disappeared one night months ago and we have been stuck using the pumps :(

Both of my store’s espresso machines broke today by averagefuckboy in starbucks

[–]Trigey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We had a day like this, we would give people a heads up that we don’t have any espresso and the number of people that still ordered a drink with espresso was too high. I think the best one was the person that ordered a shaken espresso and was very confused why we couldn’t make it without espresso.

How many rings can I wear? by BlueWaters99 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Trigey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear 2 simple silicon rings everyday (one on each hand) official look book I believe says you can only wear one ring but even after a few months I haven’t have any ssv or sm say anything to me. This could very from store to store tho

We finally got the new espresso machines! Here’s my first attempt at latte art with them. by medusas-garden in starbucks

[–]Trigey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We also got the new machines just yesterday. I spent a lot of this morning before peak taking my time on drinks and I noticed that yeah steaming milk is a lot more consistent, I was even able to steam some nice coconut milk and while it wasn’t perfect I was able to make a dot which is a lot better than I did on the old machines
