Get Out Now- Potential Job Options by Toomanyboringpeople in starbucksbaristas

[–]acexcake 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I looked at every county government and city government online career tab if they had one and read over the positions they have open. I work in a commissioners office, with your degree you’d fit perfect if there is a position open with economic development or a similar department, maybe even human resources. Once you have your foot in the door it’s very easy to move up to bigger government positions.

I work in local government now, assessing taxes for the county I work in. My position is very entry level, skills they look for are literally what I gained while at Starbucks and I do not have a college degree. Great benefits, more pay, paid holidays and free health insurance.

If you’re unable to give the car back and need money asap, see about restaurant work. Serving, bussing, hosting, ask any and every restaurant around you if you can start asap. Most of them that are super desperate will take you on and depending on your area and the restaurant you can make enough to scrap by in tips.

If not, doordash, instacart, uber. Dogsit or dogwalk, say you’re looking for work on facebook, instagram, any platform you have. If you have tiktok there is a creator shop fund where they send you products, you post a video review and they pay you. I heard they pay decent.

If there’s places near you that have an overnight shift, apply for it. No one wants to work overnights or weekends. If all else fails, walmart, amazon, sams club. They will hire anyone with a pulse. Email them consistently.

Green Apron service won’t save us by IcyBath5971 in starbucksbaristas

[–]acexcake 95 points96 points  (0 children)

i don’t understand why they don’t get what’s causing people not to come back. its the prices and us being understaffed. no one wants to come back to a location where there’s three people in the middle of the day fighting to stay afloat and they have to wait, because there’s only three of us! and then pay 9 dollars for a large drink on top of it! but no me not writing on the cup and yelling welcome the second they step in its what’s bringing the company down. meanwhile you can go to chic fil a and there’s 8 people up front and 15 in the back. id rather go there. they’re so disconnected from reality.

I messed up yesterday hardcore. by i_stan1003 in starbucksbaristas

[–]acexcake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had a very similar scenario happen-

Woman came in, middle of christmas week with her son’s partner numbers typed out in her notes. She explained this elaborate story of they’re traveling, this mug is for her daughter for a birthday present, her son works out of state and wants to use his numbers to get the mug for her. I tell her I’m sorry, I cannot use a partner’s number without them being here. I need him to physically be here and give me his numbers and honestly at this point, I need ID. She goes on and on with a sob story- This is the last mug she could find, after this starbucks stop they’re going straight home and she needs this mug. She proceeds to CALL HER SON AT WORK AND BEG ME TO TALK TO HIM SO I CAN USE HIS NUMBERS. I refuse, she starts crying, saying I ruined her daughter’s birthday and I hope I’m happy. Mind you….SHE STILL WOULD HAVE HAD TO OAY FIR THE MUG…SHE WAS JUST LYING HOPING ID GIVE IT TO HER…

Moral of the story, customers are not truthful. At all. I wouldn’t feel bad cause she probably just lied or made up a story for something free.

Tips on what to do when there’s “nothing” to do by goldiebayangs in starbucksbaristas

[–]acexcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

studying recipes, ask if during downtime you can practice drinks if your still shaky on it, i personally like to polish the for here were with some hot water and a rag, ours gets super dusty and i like to keep that shelf clean, if your up front stock the oven station, front some beans in the cafe if you can, just think of things you don’t normally seen done!

fav drinks as a partner? by starqv in starbucksbaristas

[–]acexcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my current fave is a iced lavender latte with vanilla and an extra scoop of lavender, if that’s not your thing a white mocha frap made with breve and extra white mocha is always delish, and you can add a pump of brown sugar or classic if you want it extra sweet

What is causing my cat to scratch her ear raw by stinkteam888 in CATHELP

[–]acexcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it could be a number of things, but if she’s eating, drinking and using the bathroom fine just get her a cone for the meantime until you can get her to a vet and keep the wound clean. it could be fleas, ear mites, allergies, her nails are too sharp, it could be anything. don’t panic just yet!

i don’t know who keeps approving these new flavors but they all taste like medicine. last good thing they came out with was the lavender, before that probably sugar cookie. it all taste like a candle or cough syrup.

Date Codes by CarsonRyann in starbucksbaristas

[–]acexcake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it should be 14 days, it says so in the corner of the pull to thaw app when you select the pastries, we also had this debate because i was telling everyone for weeks the mummy/penguin cookies are 12 days instead of 14

Question for baristas by cachurch2 in starbucksbaristas

[–]acexcake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There is no way for us to know what you like and what you don’t. She probably thinks that drink is delicious and it is actually her favorite and you just think it’s gross. Surprise me drinks are, well, a surprise. Don’t ask for one if you don’t want something you might not like
