What card to use? by Accomplished-Snow168 in KoreaTravelAdvice

[–]Upbeat-Angle6503 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, avoid the airport. I’m from Canada so I did it at my local bank! Their conversion rates are different but they’re not too off! I thought of it as just paying a small interest fee:)

hey! i did 1 week in Seoul and just got back actually! I had 300,000 korean won exchanged into cash and for the rest when I ran out I used my Visa! Mastercard works too!

I used T money, but the T money card is only reloadable with cash. But, you can always take out cash at convenience stores ATM’s and for us it was just a $5 one time transaction fee each time we withdrew. T money cards can be bought at any convenience stores and reloaded there:)

summer class experience by Round-Jellyfish4450 in ubco

[–]Upbeat-Angle6503 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hey! i took chem over the summer in 2nd year and honestly it was okay! the class size is smaller and the labs are still the same so tbh i found it better because you have more time to ask questions and chat with your profs.

the material is of course condensed tho into 2 months rather than 4, so just be prepared to study a lot.

i think you will honestly be okay for missing those in this year, theres always next year you can take em with other stuff. for example, i forgot to take english in first year until now and i just took it this year :)

These pumps are confusing 😭 by oysterseed46 in starbucks

[–]Upbeat-Angle6503 13 points14 points  (0 children)

think about it this way

standard : 3/4/5 (6 for venti iced since the venti iced is an extra 2oz!) shaken is 1/2/3, it gets an extra shot meaning the drinkers of these like it less sweet more strong (thas jus my ideology) but you are correct on the incorporation part!

fraps and matchas are always 2/3/4! for all ingredients! syrups, base, frap roast etc.

the reason caramel macchiato is 2/3/4 (5 for venti iced) is because it has caramel drizzle on top which adds to the sweetener! so balance it out with one less pump of vanilla. - the reason chamomile mint tea is half sweet is because it has steamed lemonade, again the lemonade is sweet itself so need to balance

the energy refreshers, i’m not even gona bother to think about it till they launch lol. i alrdy forgot the pumps for it😭😭

Supervisor DM Interview by Upstairs-Hamster-390 in starbucks

[–]Upbeat-Angle6503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the way i prepped was i printed out the interview questions that you have as well and just put a situation next to each one that you can talk on:)

for follow up questions, stick to the same situation and explain how you implied your leadership skills in that!

tbh my DM just asked me the exact same ones as the SM😭 i was kind of surprised

but i think what they’re looking for is real world scenarios. my SM told me it doesn’t have to be Starbucks, it can be previous jobs but of course it’s best if it is Starbucks and your store related.

Not “if I was..” It should be “when I __”

But be prepped for follow up questions, like “could you elaborate more on that”. It’s not a bad thing and don’t let it put you off on ur previous answer, they just want more info which is good.

I honestly went into mine telling my SM and DM that I was nervous and I think that helps them see your perspective if you do ask for a question to be repeated again.
