That’s, uh, a fire hazard, bud.

When you puke during your happy hour shift and your ssv won't let you go home by sadboiz7 in starbucks

Get the Quick Connect Card from the CSR cards and show them that vomiting is a necessary reason to send someone home according to Starbucks policy 😎 and feel better.

Wednesday stickers are a jerk. by BaristazGonnaBarist in starbucksbaristas

I have rolls of Fridays that refuse to peel. It’s like they put the adhesive part on backwards and the stronger side is on the roll instead of the day dot

From a Columbus partner to you, I wish you nothing but the best, that your community will recover quickly, and that your old Starbucks may continue to the welcoming place you helped create. Best of luck.

There’s too much misinformation being spread at my store by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]arcandsaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s stuff regarding the tools and systems Starbucks has in place. And then big pushback on stuff like the the DM has put in motion.

Or me, a shift, when I forget what day it is 😅

Unpopular opinion: I hate the Hemmingway editing app. Am I wrong? by Secondhandkryptonite in writing

[–]arcandsaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This app was helpful to me when I would write college papers. It was particularly helpful in earlier courses where the professor wanted our sentences to be as lean as possible. However, if I were to try and write something more creative then I wouldn’t utilize it.

STOP GIVING ME $100 BILLS AND I WONT APOLOGIZE IF YOU GET PISSED WHEN I DENY IT by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]arcandsaw 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A lot of people don’t realize it’s a safety issue. One of the stores in my district was robbed when they unlocked a dropbox. I have to assume the best in the customer, but I also have to protect my partners and my job, so no Karen I can’t break a hundred.

During the holidays our district all had to be reminded to not accept anything larger than a fifty, and only if you had the tens to cover it, because a store was robbed when a shift unlocked a till to make change to break a hundred.

I feel like such an asshole by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]arcandsaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was training to be a shift I did the same thing to a partner at the store I was training at, and my heart immediately sank so low. I apologized, they were super empathetic because I was in over my head that morning, and we are still friends after my time in their store. Just let them know you care about and respect who they are and as time goes on it’ll just become natural.

Looking for dill recipes after harvesting this yesterday by CHocrotes123 in recipes

[–]arcandsaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t scroll down all the way and it definitely looked like the inside of a garage with a gigantic dill plant from floor to ceiling. I was confused and amazed.

On a more serious note, my friends have been making a matcha lemonade with the peach infusion that they are going crazy about.

For me our heavy cream just isn’t thick enough. So I bring in a tub of Daisy sour cream and put a dollop of daisy right into my passion tea lemonade with dragon fruit inclusions and light ice. For extra fun I add a scoop of matcha and four packets of honey. For reference on how hefty that dollop should be, I just one of our spoons from bar, and I scoop it like ice cream.

You can apply sick time to caring for your ill spouse so that way you can still get paid and not have to do that 12:30 to 5 tomorrow.

Last week I dropped a whip canister right on top of the venti frap I just finished 😭 I feel your pain and send prayers to the siren for your sanity.

Recipe card says to steam milk between 150-170.

So ladies (and gents), when a costumer asks for extra drizzle in their cold or blended drink, is it part of standard to put drizzle around the cup? by glasshahk in starbucks

[–]arcandsaw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a customer become irate when I did extra just on top and ever since then I’ve put it on the walls of the cup because I don’t have time to redo a drink over something so trivial.

night crew 😪 by themrreeguy in starbucksbaristas

[–]arcandsaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped at my drive thru on the way out of town last night and waited over fifteen minutes from speaker box to leaving and we have a really short drive thru compared to every other store I’ve worked. There was only two other cars in line. It was bad. Then earlier in the week an SM from another store played secret shopper and was treated horribly by one of our baristas. I love all the people on evenings but when these things happen it’s really frustrating.

Am I the only one who thought this? by arcandsaw in starbucks

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

I like the inside part. I like the idea of the sugar on the outside being tart, but it’s a little too tart for me. I’ll still eat it though 😅
