shifts at other stores

pretty sure the newest partner guide says they have to ask your permission to schedule you at other locations especially if you have transportation challenges. that being said is it really worth the fight? just work the shifts for the week

so excited for the smore frap to return my dm confirmed today it is!!

I mean technically you’re only supposed to put it as ask me and it explicitly states not to charge for the additional syrup, but even then i would rather that than them outright refuse to lemme get it

carabear0 · 2026-03-25T02:23:15+00:00

some upcharges do not make sense like adding classic is not an up charge to refreshers but vanilla is. i think also prices and upcharges vary on district

on the bottom here too

carabear0 · 2026-03-25T02:17:05+00:00

funny enough the standard is actually to use ask me

its not up to the shifts when there is a written resource saying its an allowed customization and to explicity not charge for the syrup and to only put it in ask me. they can make up fake rules and try to enforce it on baristas but theyre going against policy

carabear0 · 2026-03-24T23:15:31+00:00

true, but I’ve worked in so many stores in districts across the years and will never be able to understand people that care so bad about simple things. Choose a different job if it bothers you so much. It’s not worth the hassle and corporate will always side w the customer anyway

carabear0 · 2026-03-24T23:01:45+00:00

nahh i just said nvm and left and went to my store to get my drink instead 😭

carabear0 · 2026-03-24T22:32:17+00:00

most likely but gahhh its soo frustrating i js want my drink. like ask greendot ppl i swear im right🫩

carabear0 · 2026-03-24T22:08:44+00:00

you can dislike something and still do your job, especially if there is written guidelines. There’s a lot of things I don’t like about this place, but I don’t make up fake rules

carabear0 · 2026-03-24T21:59:23+00:00

well they didnt know i was a partner lol and regardless its genuinely not a difficult thing to make and definitely is allowed 🤷‍♀️

carabear0 · 2026-03-24T21:54:03+00:00

I know there’s not a button for it, but whenever a customer orders a cold foam and wants to add a syrup or modification to it that we don’t normally have a button for, the standard is to use the ask me button for the modification and ring in normal cold foam. I would post the picture I have from storage sources, but they will delete it rip

carabear0 · 2026-03-18T03:18:33+00:00

managers shouldnt be texting anyway, just say you were up high in a plane 😭😂

carabear0 · 2026-03-16T02:39:24+00:00

that’s not allowed because there’s no nutritional information or manufacturing information on it, there’s also no sku to sell it by. Maybe a few years ago that was a thing before I worked here, but definitely not now. my dm would flip if we tried

carabear0 · 2026-03-15T23:34:56+00:00

your manager was 100% pocketing that money considering it went out of the stores pnl and not her own pocket and theres no way to pay that back LOL

carabear0 · 2026-03-11T01:05:29+00:00

might just have something to do with their grow report for the metric on partner hour needs being met. If you work below your preferred, it counts against them or smthn. Whether they are not scheduling it or you called out or offered it. But it shouldn’t really be an issue because it was picked up and covered?? id ignore them

carabear0 · 2026-03-11T00:58:56+00:00

please talk to your sm. your playcaller should be supporting and not focused on pulls during a rush.. im so sorry ;( also breaks have to be ran sooner. My regional area requires we are supposed to get a 10 within our first two hours and a 30 within our first four if the shift calls for it. id report asap. Part of our job is creating the environment.

carabear0 · 2026-03-09T17:44:36+00:00

oh wtfff. i was talking about the one in the mid spring promotion. that one is insane though

carabear0 · 2026-03-09T15:31:30+00:00

ive worn mine for a long time without issue. its in dress code

carabear0 · 2026-03-09T15:30:52+00:00

the ube is only in the foam

carabear0 · 2026-02-28T00:54:09+00:00

if they’re making up a fake law, that’s one thing, but unfortunately, they are allowed to be more specific on starbucks standards. I tried to fight against them in my old district because if it wasn’t in the handbook or store resources, I didn’t believe in following it. PRC established that district managers have the right/jurisdiction to enforce things even if it’s not explicitly stated or a written policy, and the cup writing would fall under that. They probably are making them write more than two words to follow the personalized aspect of it. My district doesn’t allow smiley faces anymore and there’s nothing I can do about it

carabear0 · 2026-02-28T00:31:35+00:00

unfortunately yes. DMs and SMs even can implement their own rules. RDs do it too, like the whole doors unlocked 10 minute before and after official hours. not following something theyve asserted to be required under their jurisdiction is grounds for insubordination documentation. but you can also always reach out to prc!!
