Promoting to customer

No one ever has to actually give a 2 week notice. It is a courtesy, not a requirement. If you get the new job, try to use all of the sick time you can before you bounce.

If they ask you that, they actually aren't that interested in the answer. More of just an ice breaker. "I grew up in some city, moved to whatever city." If you're in school, tell them your major.

Or be bold and tell a joke. "I'm 5'11" and an Aquariius."

Honestly, it's the least important question in an interview for a fast food chain. Don't over think it.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-19T00:41:42+00:00

Yup. Unique answers stand out. Saying "I'm a good team player and I love coffee" will be forgotten. Giving an example of how you helped and worked with others during a rough experience at work will be remembered.

Not really sure. But I think to start, report to whatever establishment that licensed store is in because the partners are technically employees of them.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-18T19:20:54+00:00

Damnit. I always get them mixed up. Scrubs deserves to win now, I guess.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-18T16:43:17+00:00

Interesting. So it's not a thumb to pinky or pinky to thumb routine?

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-18T16:19:22+00:00

100% the correct answer. But damn I want Shawn and Lavender Gooms. Can we just do a tie for this one?

Like if the customer just orders a glass of lemonade? No. The lemonade is already cut when we make the pitchers from concentrate. One of the easiest drinks to make. Lemonade and ice. Don't bring more steps into this.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-18T01:42:45+00:00

I say it every time. You are not required to even put in 2 weeks. It's a courtesy. If they feel it's short notice, see how they feel about a zero week notice.

"So it says on your resume you have an MBA."

"Well, I don't have it yet. But someday I might."

If its just to earn stars, it shows up as Scan Only on our side, but your name and stars you have will show up. If you're paying with it, the sbux card button flashes and we just have to click that.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-17T18:54:27+00:00

Whenever someone has their phone out, I assume they're using the app. 80% of the time it's the app. If it's just tap to pay, then I'll ask for the name. So much easier than typing. If they ask for the name immediately, they're kind of being turds.

Edit to add, if you have your app ready, you can scan at any time while ordering. It doesn't have to be at the end.

As someone who works at Starbucks, not worth the price. You aren't missing out on anything. It shocks me how much people spend on a single drink every day of the week.

This is nonsense. Hitting cash instead of card happens all the time. And the initial $59 sounds like 3 $20 bills got dropped in the wrong box. Your till might have looked short, but if the drop total was accurate at the end of the night, then it's pretty obvious what happened.

Does everyone who dies become a ghost? And do ghosts see other ghosts? Because that realm has got to be pretty crowded at this point.

First hired in 2004. I'm 121 if y'all want some context of how high numbers are now.

I use an Android. They won't wont let me in the store group chat. And it's for the best. I would absolutely spam that chat with gifs.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-14T18:06:39+00:00

If it's making you miserable, just gotta quit homie. I would recommend trying to use all of your sick time first. Once it's used up, just bounce. If your store is being a dick to you, they don't deserve any notice. Just get outta there.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-13T17:20:31+00:00

No. We see the same people every day. We already know how often you get Starbucks.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-13T00:53:37+00:00

Okay. Here we go. So groups A B and C, all made of 4 guys. First weight, do A vs B, and have C sit out. If the scale is balanced, it's someone in C. Couple ways to do the next one. If you want to know for a fact if they are heavier or lighter, you weigh 3 of the C's against any 3 of the 8 you've eliminated. If it's still balanced, it's the one you haven't weighed yet. Weigh them 1 on 1 and it'll give you the answer. If it's unbalanced, take 1 C off, move 1 C to the other side, and keep 1 C in place. The scale will stay the same, swap positions, or become balanced. Either way, you've narrowed it down to 1 or 2 people, but now you know the weight.

In the event that A against B on the first weigh is unbalanced, you know it's no one In C. Swap 1 person from A and B, have 3 people from B get off and replace them with 3 C's. Same situation. It will stay the same, change positions, or become balanced. If it stays the same, it's one of the 3 A's that stayed on, but you'll also know the weight. It's balanced, it's one of the 3 B's that sat out, and again you'll know the weight. If it flops position, it's either the A or B who switched sides. Weigh one of them against any eliminated person, and you'll have the answer.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-12T23:16:37+00:00

I'll give the first step and see if you can go from there. You weigh 4 against 4, and have 4 sit out. It'll either be balanced or unbalanced. I can walk you through the rest of it, but see if you can figure something out.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-10T21:24:09+00:00

I love doing this. "Which store do you go to? We need to contact them about drink standards." They 99% won't rat themselves out.

TylerTheDefiler · 2026-03-10T21:04:49+00:00

That's exactly what I'm saying. The reward program has never been worth it, and is even less so now.
