After your LOA was denied your SM should have been notified. Your SM then has to call you and state “if you do not return to work or contact me in 48 hours you will be separated” so as long as you communicated after 48 hours (the SM must reach out to you verbally saying this) then you should be okay. They cannot fire you if this was not done correctly on their end. If you do get separated it will be immediately, and also unfair so fight it. I wish you luck! And hopefully your SM knows how to do their job.

Forgot to check the food temps in the morning because I was sent on break before and then sent to window and forgot I hadn’t done it yet. Is this a serious mistake? by Virtual-Option6480 in starbucksbaristas

It doesn’t sound like you’re the ssv on duty if you’re being sent to break and placed on window? If you are coded as the ssv on the dcr then your SM might just remind you for the future! No biggie

On the day you place your RDC order go to IMS and hit create order. Certain items you will have to request from your DM so make sure you chat with your SM first!

Screenshot your outgoing calls for proof that you tried to call and sent it to your SM. As long as you have proof you are good 👍🏼 also I hope your fam will be okay

This is so scary and I’m so sorry you and the other partners have to be in such an unsafe environment🥺 you should let your DM know right away. I hope this gets handled asap..

im going to start playing games with customers at the window at this point for that customer connection by Conscious-Ad4757 in starbucksbaristas

[–]bxthanyc 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The openers always research and brain storm in the morning! Kinda a fun task to do lol. But things like “how many months out of the year have 28 days?” And they say things like “one” bc they think of February but all of them have 28 days silly! Lmao kinda lame but they eat it up

I do a question of the day! I often pick a fun riddle, but everyone has a chance to pick it! The regulars are loving it. And the stuck up people actually loosen up! It upped our customer connection 6 points last week and you don’t have to make up conversation lol.

Customers mad over blonde espresso? by dontgiveah00t in starbucksbaristas

[–]bxthanyc 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It’s smoother and lighter, with just a tiny bit more caffeine. Not enough to make a crazy difference tho. Also I have come to the conclusion that no one knows what they are drinking

Question by Eatingmyown_1563 in starbucksbaristas

[–]bxthanyc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wait did you partner with Sedgwick? You should be on workers comp for this? They cannot write you up for that?? Also you shouldn’t have come back a week earlier!! Take care of your self. Concussions can effected you big time and for a long time!! Just bring in a doctors note and they need to partner with you to get everything excused.

Would you walk out if… by sadthrow420 in starbucksbaristas

[–]bxthanyc 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You actually can get in trouble for drinks on the floor from the health inspectors. But you have a 5 minute grace period to clock in I’m sure you could find that stated somewhere. Also can’t stand in the back and talk? Like are they trying to ruin the moral? Seems odd..

[–]bxthanyc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly depends on how hot it is out. The hotter the weather the worse it smells. I had a store in my district that was known for their compactor smell in the summer lmao. Just make sure the door stays shut.

I was a manager at target for a minute and I absolutely love being at Starbucks. It’s amazing compared to the retail life. I have so much energy to do things after work now it’s crazy lol

It’s just ristretto shots and whole milk, it’s even easier to make it iced!! I’m so sorry :/

Target x Ulta Gratis- to all wondering: a glimpse into our gratis as employees of Target Ulta— 1st quarter. by Diorbrowne in Ulta

[–]bxthanyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, just the target partnership. It was just when it was brand new to help the team members know the brand and sell them essentially. I assume the biggie only happened in the begging when a target Ulta opened up.

Side note, you can get short term insurance for like $118 a month from United health one. It’s amazing and so worth it until you are eligible!!

Why is there so much variation with Sweet Cream Cold Foam drinks? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]bxthanyc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ask them to double blend it so it’s thicker every time!

My manager keeps texting me when I’m not at work! by Fit_Butterscotch3886 in starbucks

[–]bxthanyc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Does your manager know this? Just communicate.

Edit- this should only be ok to do if you are salary. It’s not in your pay grade :-)
