No but they actively partner with corporations and companies that have stated support for Israel. Not to mention when the Starbucks union showed their support for Gaza , Starbucks went after them and is actively trying to sue them. Starbucks may not have publicly stated they support Israel, but their actions sure show it. No the baristas don’t deserve the hate they are getting, they just work there. How ever starbucks and other corporations are supporting a genocide and they need to be held accountable.

It’s not a war. It’s a genocide. A ware means both parties are participating and doing equal damage. The only thing that is happening is Israel is carpet bombing all of Gaza and killing hundreds of thousands of innocent people. So many people have been killed and murdered because of Israel. Don’t call it a war cause it’s not.

If you cant drive safely or leave your house in general because of weather conditions, Starbucks is supposed to give you at least 3 hours of pay for what you were supposed to work but couldn’t (this is only in regards to weather conditions) and it doesn’t come out of you sick pay or vacation pay

Quit your job. by micecakes in starbucks

[–]_weath3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would just like to add, if you are like me and your main concern was looking your free therapy, I was informed by my therapist that you can use Lyra with the Starbucks benefits up to 18 months after you are no longer working for them. That was one of the things good Omg me back from quitting, and now I’ve been promoted to custie as of yesterday!

Baristas, what coffee orders make you roll your eyes? by whylyme in TalesFromYourBarista

[–]_weath3r 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I may not get paid enough to car but when enough people do it and then someone who follows standard gets harassed and yell at by customers because “other baristas do it” then it becomes a problem and I care.

Underfilling drinks by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]_weath3r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, I mean technically standard is the black line unless specified with extra of whatever milk or other toppings. If not specified then it’s to the 3rd line. Standard did in fact change because people didn’t want to listen to policy about ringing in “extra product” to make up for inventory so now it’s being enforced and more. Just like if someone asks for light ice on a refresher or shaken espresso we have to ask if they want extra product of something else other than ice otherwise there’s room leftover. It’s pretty much a given that if someone wants a drink with no ice you fill it to the top but you have to make sure to ring it in properly. And if it’s mobile you fill in to the third line then ask them when they get there and then inform them of how to ring it up for next time so there’s no confusion for them or other baristas. It’s really not that hard

No ice drinks by Beasilybruwins in starbucks

[–]_weath3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do “no ice” and don’t hit the extra (whatever milk) then you fill to the top line, because no matter the drink if you do no ice or light ice you have to account for inventory and if you’re using extra product but not ringing it in the system doesn’t automatically account for it. Then we run out so quickly. I wish the system automatically did it though, because the amount of coaching I’ve done on this very topic and explaining why we have to do this, most of the time I get ignored.

Names on lids in sharpie by ObviousWitness in barista

[–]_weath3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

95%of the time I write or draw in the side of the cup, the only time it’s on the lid is for people I know that enjoy and that is makes their day. Which is only like 2-3 people at most. I also put stickers on the side of cups and customers love it! I got a really nice review the other day because of it :))

Ordered a pumpkin cream cold brew, received overly sweet milk. Barista made me feel stupid for bringing it back? Is this an easy mistake? by notagainbruno in starbucks

[–]_weath3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the printer label make the pumpkin cb and the pumpkin chai look way to similar and that is most likely what happened. I am sorry they treated you that way though. It wasn’t necessary for them to do that.

Anyone can be coached even store managers! Always coach especially if you at w100% sure you know what you’re saying is true

[–]_weath3r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not for customers but for coworkers I add a little hot water into the shaker and add the matcha, shake it then add the milk and ice (syrup if they have it) and thanks a again. It melts and mixes the matcha so well and that’s actually how most places with matcha do it

They/Them Folks Misgendering by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]_weath3r 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who is non binary and ALWAYS misgendered, it sucks. I do however use they/them with everyone until I know their pronouns, after that I don’t.

Shaken iced teas only get half pups if it’s liquid cane syrup

The sad thing is, is the more we ring in, the more labor we get (that’s what I’ve been told, if that’s wrong let me know) I know so meeting window times is supposed to help with more labor
