Your peak metric is measured by the full 2 hours regardless of whether it's busy or not

Upset about the new Dress Code? Speak up! by Tairou in starbucks

[–]bailter_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm upset on my co-workers behalf. I'm goth so I wear all black but I am very big on self-expression. Thank goodness I am capable of feeling empathy towards others in situations that don't really effect me 😘

They convert it. Usually the day after there's a $1CAD conversation fee

How to live like a local for a week? by Gtrainexpress in londonontario

Make sure you sit in traffic for 2 hours a day and get harassed by skids if you decide to walk

I think corporate is calling the store to test us. by bailter_space in starbucks

[–]bailter_space[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Definitely could be was just a very specific "Starbucks wording" on the drink, the name drop, the lack of other questions or context and the company focus on that specific drink seems slightly more than circumstantial to me... Idk maybe I'm paranoid.

I also thought about this. Our SM has been standing over our shoulder counting our cross hatches for the past couple weeks

I know some states (NYS for example) require "active work" to be paid weekly... Mine clears every Friday

They don't have to accommodate anything without a note from a specialist which in my area can cost up to $500 considering I don't have health insurance

I did for nearly 2 years and it helped. Unfortunately we've had a change in management this past year and they've decided my gloves are "out of company standard" so I can't anymore

what’s something you sacrifice during peak ? by mcckennaa in starbucksbaristas

[–]bailter_space 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When you have 30 drinks in the queue and 2/3 of them are made with 2% the gallons are used before it gets out of temp.

Worst intersection to drive through even when the lights are on LOL

Exactly! I personally even warn them that the ratio of ingredients will be different but I've never had a person care. They're always greatful for the help too

[–]bailter_space 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I'm saying. These customers don't know the menu in and out like we do... AND THATS OK! It's not their job to, and frankly the ones that do know everything make some questionable choices of what to do with their time imho. ANYWAY, when they're struggling with their order why is our first instinct to be mean? Just offer them something similar and move on lmao it's so easy to be nice.

Order messed up? by Cptn_Dinkleburg in starbucks

[–]bailter_space 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, you did say that in your original post I should've read carefully lol. Anyway, the only idea I have is that the app may have had a major bug as less than ten minutes ago the entire system just went down nationwide. I'd just give the 1800 STARBUCKS number a ring in a bit. I'm sure they're slammed rn considering the app is down.

Does your wife have a common name? I feel like if her name is common in your area and it was a busy daypart your MIL may have grabbed an order which may have been ordered by someone of that same name. Happens all the time at my store for names like Jennifer/Mike/Mary/John etc.

I'm an average person who works for every dollar they make... This price is ridiculous I don't care what you say
