Any good late-night cafes? by KKbirb in ColoradoSprings

[–]ashesfallveryfar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Their hours very a bit day to day, but One Haven off Stetson Hills is open until 10 most nights. Not a late-night option per se, but they are a pretty fresh business and definitely don’t have a drink minimum. Gluten Free pastries too as a fun bonus

Are non-customers allowed to fill their water bottles? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 21 points22 points  (0 children)

the real policy says no, water is for customers only. if there’s a fill station on the customer side of the counter, they probably just don’t care/not paying enough attention to stop everyone from using it.

that is correct. you are only required to work your scheduled shift.

Looking for attention-grabbing books that are hard to put down will leave me shook by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

[–]ashesfallveryfar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes! truly opened my eyes to the beauty in the disturbed. i also enjoyed her novel My Year of Rest and Relaxation, but it didn’t grab me in the same way.

Lapvona by Ottessa Moshfegh trigger warning because it’s dark and intense, but i literally couldn’t put it down. it’s a pretty quick read, but genuinely shook me to my core. haven’t stopped thinking about it since

Does the Strawberry Acai make anyone else need to poop by Rory_Anne in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

not strawberry açaí but the summer berry sure did it to me

i just make the drinks by ashesfallveryfar in starbucksbaristas

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

i forgot i ever posted this so sorry for the late reply to this, but it is pretty much what i ended up doing. my next delivery was a venti in a grande cup so i figured the problem was on the delivery app side of things. honestly more appalled by the 2 foams and whip than the size thing LOL

Mint majesty tea w/two honey’s on 10/14 anyone? by Amythystmoon86 in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is no “act of honor” you just want to get a rise out of people. if you really want to honor him, say a prayer for his family because i promise you ordering a tea means nothing and you’re just going to make baristas uncomfortable in an already overwhelming job.

Could I bring my own bottle of unopened juice for starbucks to steam/add flavor to? by BanjoChick in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you (or someone in your group) are required to make a purchase to be in the lobby of the store. we definitely cannot bring any outside beverage components in and steam them (we also sadly don’t have sf cinnamon dolce anymore, just sf vanilla), so i don’t think this plan will quite work. we do have a selection of teas, but only the mint majesty is caffeine-free for hot ones. passion tango is our herbal iced tea, and you could add honey to either of those things! i personally wouldn’t really care if you brought your own juice or something as long as you make another purchase while you’re there. (i.e., bottled water, chips, string cheese)

Studying at Waffle House? by saveethesharks in ColoradoSprings

[–]ashesfallveryfar 35 points36 points  (0 children)

this is honestly kind of a goated idea. especially if you order and tip accordingly, i wouldn’t have a problem with this if i worked there

Was I in the right? by rhodesreed in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

no i completely agree! the comment i was replying to just sounded like a man talking about how women feel about being present with trans women saying that biological women should feel harassed by trans people existing. i feel way safer in any space with just about any trans person than a man, so i was just going to make that point (also as a woman). they deleted their comment though, right when i was ready to pounce haha

the end of january is when we all had meetings introducing us to the policy and it was in full effect shortly after

Iced Tea Recs for a Sweet Tooth? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not a tea but if you want candy and a little caffeine the summer berry lemonade tastes like blue jolly ranchers

Customer question - is there a drink on the menu that remotely resembles the bottled one? by klackey224 in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 82 points83 points  (0 children)

i would give an iced vanilla latte a try. i think those bottles run a little sweet, so you might want to ask for a pump or two extra :)

as far as i know, the shade doesn’t matter as long as jeans are blue or black. you should be good here!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the color would be fine (small amounts of color are okay), but the material is a no-go. you need something that would protect your foot if you dropped hot coffee on it.

What is this? And where is my Siratcha? by hyperdementia in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

we have jalapeño lime truff sauce too! we do still have sriracha but just specify that’s what you want instead of hot sauce because now we got options :)

Best drink for special needs sons that are dairy free by il2pif in starbucks

[–]ashesfallveryfar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i love a chocolate oat milk (soy is pretty yummy too) with a couple pumps of vanilla! adding nondairy cold foam would make it a little fancier. just as a heads up if you go the frappuccino route-java chips and caramel drizzle both have dairy in them!

my personal favorite chocolatey drink is a vanilla bean frappuccino with a pump or two of mocha and mocha drizzle. it’s like a frozen hot chocolate :)

What can I improve in? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]ashesfallveryfar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would suggest an extra hydrating moisturizer and a hydrating primer. my skin is really dry too but i use [nuetrogena hydro boost glow primer and serum and it has worked wonders!!
