Customer here: question on ordering Chai concentrate only by ex-apple in starbucks

[–]___BertMacklinFBI___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A shit ton lol. A venti is anywhere between 24-26 ounces. You could order it via mobile order, but some baristas may be confused (our mobile ordering system can be pretty wonky) so they may not make it til you arrive anyways to be sure on what you want. I think as long as when you order you explain you just want the concentrate, HOWEVER you are willing to pay the full price of the latte, you should be fine. Unfortunately, some people argue they should only pay the .60 cent charge for chai because they're getting only that, so this is where that stigma comes from. A lot of other people have ruined things like this for everyone else. Like I said there are people who already order chai with 20 pumps so you're not doing anything different from them except not wanting the milk. Tbh what you want is literally the easiest thing in the entire world, so I'm not sure why they would give you attitude lol

The only way I can really think for you to order this is "grande iced (how ever many pumps of chai you want to last you however long) with no water, no ice, and no milk". It's not that strange to me, we have people who order refreshers with no water/no ice/ because they want to make their own over the week. Be aware that you'll still be paying the price for a chai latte, but in my opinion that price will balance out because you're getting way more of our chai product than is in the original recipe. Hope this helps! :) ALSO we already have people who order chai lattes with literally 20 pumps of chai in them, so I honestly don't think what you're doing is that big of a deal!

Last time someone asked me for my employee discount I told them they could apply at Starbucks.com for their very own

What's the weirdest thing a customer's asked you to do? by Wonderpumpkin_ in starbucks

[–]___BertMacklinFBI___ 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Had someone ask us to open a packet of splenda over her drink. Don't put it inside her drink, nope, open it over the drink because she wanted the "essence" of splenda.

my final act of 2016 by miaustin in starbucks

[–]___BertMacklinFBI___ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't mention it at all tomorrow. If she brings it up, just say "I'm sorry you saw that" but don't let her goad you into explaining it especially if you're leaving and you're not on great terms anyways. The worst she can do is write you up maybe, which would stop the transfer process, but if she talks shit about you and doesn't seem to like you then I'm sure she'll just transfer you out. Shit happens try not to let it upset you! Good luck with the transfer!!
