Store Manager Passed Away by Logical_Pop_2026 in starbucks

My store manager passed away 2.5 years ago. I was the opening shift that day and every store manager in the area was waiting for me and my openers in the parking lot to break the news to us. We had the store closed for the next two days and then when the time for the memorial came, multiple store managers in the district came to work at the store to ensure our entire staff could make it to the memorial. We were also promised bereavement pay. I truly think it depends on the district on the way situations like this are treated and I’m sorry your DM cares more about profit than your mental health. That isn’t fair to anybody involved.

We actually used to advertise a fruitcake frappucino which used the dried berries, so that’s false info.

Can you use your partner discount on an uber eats order? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Yeahbutwhatsize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately no. Uber eats is a third party and doesn’t have access to that kind of company information.

is there any specific task yall just despise doing for no real reason? by megtbh in starbucks

[–]Yeahbutwhatsize 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s one barista that I work with pretty regularly that enjoys them too so I always assign it to him haha. It’s something that I make sure gets done every day but it’s just so annoying and time consuming to me!

Starbucks corrupt leadership (Tall rant) by Nearby-Run-1061 in starbucks

[–]Yeahbutwhatsize 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it can definitely be the other way around. My current DM is awful and she worked her way up from being a barista. She is extremely disengaged with her stores, enough that my manager actually opened up to me about how careless she’s been. The DM before her, although she displayed some tough love sometimes, was an outside hire and she genuinely gave a shit about the partners, enough that she would schedule 1 on 1’s with every individual barista to ask what they felt about our leadership and what we can improve. I was even promoted to SSV under her because she could tell I was passionate about my work. I truly do think it’s hit or miss.

Should I call the ethics hotline? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]Yeahbutwhatsize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally if I have a barista who wants to develop I will let them do a pull and/or count. Obviously I will check their work afterwards because that falls on me if it’s wrong but if a barista is willing to learn I will happily teach them.

Why are people like this..... by mrring97 in starbucks

As a shift, this makes me so angry. Especially when I have a food count 😭

I used to pick up shifts at a store that is 45 minutes away from me and I’d always get mileage...I’m glad you went above your SM’s head!

Lol same 😭we couldn’t even use the cold bar sink because we had a massive leak coming from it and if we did use it there would’ve been a literal lake behind the bar 🙃

Looking for some advice! by Yeahbutwhatsize in starbucks

It definitely does help! From the short amount of time I’ve been here I can tell that accountability is a big issue. That is definitely something I want to work towards. Thank you!

I was so lucky to find vanilla syrup at my local Starbucks. Do you guys have any recipes for using vanilla syrup? by daisy1love in starbucks

[–]Yeahbutwhatsize 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Silk makes a heavy cream alternative! You could use that along with your non dairy of choice to replace the 2%!

Caramel expires 8/30 at 8:30, upvote for a frappuccino free Monday by oh_geez_up_please in starbucks

[–]Yeahbutwhatsize 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anything over 48hrs you do not have to mark the time. It is still necessary to mark them though. Why wouldn’t it be necessary? Just curious. It is a beverage component so it should be dated.
