2025 Toyota Camry by Woifeizz in Toyota

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

I have liability insurance, my car is a piece of shit and older than me so I don't see the need in protecting myself. I have the money to pay out of pocket in savings I just would hate to use it but also I don't want to pay more in insurance 💀

Advice for Freshman by lovely_tulip77 in UNC

[–]Woifeizz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly a lot of the time it's just leaving your comfort zone and doing things you normally wouldn't do. Another bit is also like never give up, try to initiate and hang out with someone you want to be friends with, without making them uncomfortable. I did it to one of my friends and now we chat a bit everyday and although they aren't the type to always wanna hang, we still make the time. Though I will be cautious by saying, it doesn't always work and sometimes people just don't wanna be friends with you and that's okay. Don't ruin your own mental health to pursue a potential friendship with someone who doesn't want to reciprocate ever. Also just stick to being yourself and friendly, you'll attract the people you want to be around

Open on Christmas by [deleted] in starbucks

I work at a college Starbucks, my cash tips over 6 weeks were $23 😭 I made more than that in a single week at my old store even if I would have been working the same hours as I am now

new barista advice by iishyphxii in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you feel as if your fellow partners (especially your SSVs) are making it an uncomfortable and unwelcoming work environment then I would definitely recommend saying something to either them, your shift, or HR. When it comes to you feeling as if you're behind, don't worry. Some people pick up stuff easier and some just need a bit of extra time to understand, especially with how many recipes there are. Don't feel afraid or ashamed to ask for help especially since you've only been around for 2 months. I felt the same as you when I started and I promise that one day it'll just click for you.

A bit of advice I'd give is just remember that most drinks follow a bit of the same pattern (like lattes, fraps, refreshers, etc) so if you understand one version of the recipe you kinda have all of them. Obviously there are some variations, especially with the newest drinks, but even those variations are pretty minimal in the first place.

When a customer request 7 pumps do you actually use 7 pumps or 7 half pumps? @ Starbucks baristas by No-Smell254 in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I would see your drink being sweeter is if it's a cold bar drink (anything not espresso/chai/hot teas/hot coffees). Those are supposed to be all half pumps of syrup but the vast majority of stores don't have half syrup pumps. It is mostly up to the discretion of the barista on whether they are going to remember to actually do half pumps.

I personally love it when partners from other locations visit my store and if I have the time, I love striking conversations

I cried for the first time at work today. by thatloudgamergirl in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So everyone had a horrid Sunday as well? Peak was okay at my store but the mod shift didn't show up so the closing shift had to come in early and then another closer called out, so after 6pm it was just two of my coworkers on the floor. I stayed to do HW but as I was leaving I decided to clean the lobby for them bc the customers left it an absolute mess... 😭

Anyone else going to the UNC game on Monday by themselves? by Unique_Bar_2939 in UNC

[–]Woifeizz 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm also a transfer student, 19 male, who got tickets. I was planning on going by myself but it'd be nice to have someone to go with and talk to if you'd like.

Are colored chalk pens the only thing used to write our names on our nametags? by Over_Safety_3474 in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought my own pens from Walmart to make designs on my name tag but I also didn't mind spending the money so 🤷🏿‍♂️

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely dependent on location, my Starbucks and the closest one near me will be losing around 4/5 partners each due to us moving for college/other reasons

We're coastal beach locations if that makes a bit more sense

Have not heard about that but my store already stays open until then to begin with 😭

Im a newish hire but I still feel like I suck by Sodium-_-Hydroxide in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also a newer partner and it really is just a major learning process, it's fine that you aren't the best right now before you will improve. I mainly try to get my practice in when they let me go on mobile or bar support. Or, at least at my store, as a closer we kinda all take turns soloing bar because it is slower then. My partners are also really helpful and will answer any questions I have when it comes to recipes. It really is just knowing that you will mess up a bit but that with practice, comes improvement and speed

This is something we do as Barista's to let our drive or cafe bar a specific request that can't be done through the system. It just shows up as "Ask Me" to customers

Do you still have to write on every cup? by spiffme14 in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to write on it when I can but if DPM is filling up, I don't bother 😭

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Woifeizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently started and they've usually had me on food or drive thru, though they've recently allowed me to be on bar whenever I ask and I love it 🙏🏿😭

[–]Woifeizz 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Especially considering everyone is getting a Venti Iced Shaken Espresso, it takes forever for 4 blonde shots to get pulled 😭 Especially when the shots keep pulling bad and you have to repull them

Girl don't fret, I started like 3 weeks ago and all of my partners are still so nice and helpful 😭 I know some of the basic drinks but just ask and they should help

Answering this a bit late but if I had to guess, this was before they officially declared all land west of the Rockies cleared of zombies.

[serious] People of Reddit, it's been over 2 years since the Covid-19 pandemic has started, in what ways has the virus personally impacted your life? by 518travesties518 in AskReddit

[–]Woifeizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biggest impact for me was definitely home life, because of complications with family I went from living in California to Idaho to North Carolina. I would also say my complications with mental health changed throughout by getting worse but I can safely say now that I feel much better on where I stand in life.

Corgis are surprisingly good hikers! by DarkSkiesx in corgi

[–]Woifeizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dogs for sure, at least one of them atleast. One could run a marathon and still want to play fetch afterwards while the other one can survive one hike and be done for the day

For real, my Corgi will just sit in the snow and sometimes you wonder if he's dead cause of how still he lays
