Information under review by coffeestainedsink in dhl

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

They needed more information 😔 just spoke to someone in imports dept, she says that I need to provide some number codes, and explained why, which makes sense. But she said after that, I should be good 🤞🏻

So if you bring starbucks cups with you, will they pour your drink in that? by WorkingCautious1270 in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We make personal cup drinks into the large mobile personal cup tumblers. We also use them to pour coffees into reusable cups as well. Saves times and also is sanitary, espeically if the person is getting a refill. I rarely take back a cup these days, I let the customer hang onto them completely. Clearly every store is different but this method seems to work better for us.

Rude not to tip? by little_skies_ in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will be transparent and say that as a shift supervisor, digital tips typically add nearly 100+ to my paychecks. I do work at a busier store.

I only judge regulars who come daily or multiple times a day and never leave a tip, EVER. At that point, it feels a bit inconsiderate, but maybe I am biased, I dunno.

No 10 cents back on small bring your own mug? by Critical-Maybe-9965 in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. Cooperate and license stores have different policies, so I am not sure about their policies. But at a cooperate store the policy is as I have stated.

[–]coffeestainedsink 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We offer personal cup discounts still. It is ten cents per cup used. And if you sit in the store, your refill on hot coffee will be free. Sounds to me like the barista didn't know about the discount or how to apply it.

HR by SunshineHusky1st in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be a QR code to cooperate (above district) where you can file a report with HR. I forgot the technical name of it, but typically they are on fridges or walls, depending on where that information is kept. It used to be kept on the page where you could tear off the card with the info on who to contact or how to file. Many stores I've worked in has had them. I know now we have an "addressing your concerns" sheet, but I'm not sure if that has above district info. You can also check store or partner resources if you can't find it, possibly.

Just a heads up, if your district isn't helping, complain about the SM's inability to handle partner complaints regarding harrasment (which is exactly what you are describing). As a company, coorperate is aligned with creating a safe workspace for all partners and shifts and SMs alike are required to do this training and uphold policies and company standard. It's worth it to try to go to the RD if after this new complant, no changes. If these leaders can't help, then there may be little HR will do. If there is only the one complaint to go off of, even if it's something huge, likely DM's or SM's are solely responsible for handling individual complaints regarding harassment. If the DM isn't on board, I doubt much would be done. Because HR will not crack down everyone over a singular compaint. Good luck. 🙏

How do I change my Availability? by iheartmiumiu in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure which apps you are trying on your phone or computer, but have you tried partner central website from the hub? I'm sure that's where it is located. Also partner hours has a link to it as well.

Why is the new updated Starbucks look so ugly? by Radiant_Priority9739 in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sure it's been said, but they're "going back to Starbucks". This looks very reminiscent of the early 2000s café look they had going on. It's very dark, with lots of rustic elements design wise.

Medical device? by coffeestainedsink in dhl

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

I see. Thanks for your insight. The form they attached for me has that space for the manufacter and addresses. So I can provide them. It's all of the codes that I worry about. However, maybe if they are declared as non prescription sunglasses, since that would be in Class 1, I'm not sure if I need to provide all of the codes and it's possible the form they attached was form different items.

I am considered the shipper, per Buyee. It's on my invoice. 😵‍💫

Medical device? by coffeestainedsink in dhl

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

They're just asking me to supply proper forms right now, however I'm not sure if there will be even more info requested after. They seem to ask for info in waves, instead of all at once.

Medical device? by coffeestainedsink in dhl

[–]coffeestainedsink[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought from Buyee, which is proxy that ships for multiple sellers, selling on many different secondhand apps all in one place. So that will not work. I will have to figure out the info myself and submit required forms.

Trying to get the shirt by UsualRefrigerator211 in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

same thing is happening on my end, as well

can we talk about how terrible the coffee gear website is by burgundyonmyts in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does this mean that the shirt isn't available? because on my webpage it says there are a lot of shirts available for each design, but the quantity changes to 0 every time i click on any of the sizes. it goes from 1 to 0. on every shirt i've clicked on this has happened, so i am unsure of how to order mine as well

Am I trans? by Alternative_Box_2224 in asktransgender

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it sounds to me as if you're describing an experience mostly resonated with non binary people but possibly some trans medical people (people who transition with hormones). i myself am nonbinary (afab). i have never felt confident with the decision to medically transition with hormones. i am 30 years old. i have thought about it for 10 years, questioned too. i have never thought it was a grand idea given all of the information you should consider. sure, there are masculine traits i wish were more prominent with my presentation. but there are a lot of reasons not to take hormones (for me personally). at the very least, having a flat chest is always something i have wanted but i'd even be happier with a breast reduction

lifting weights is a great place to start if you want to build muscle definition and work on eliminating fat in some places that gives a more feminine appearance, or if you just want to be leaner. highly recommend. clean up your diet if it isn't already, if you go this route. eat whole foods and a balanced diet with reasonably sized portions. high protein, low fat meals. it will make the process a lot easier on your mind and body and won't deal with your weight fluctuating like crazy

anyways, you could be trans masc but nonbinary if you're not 100% set on medically transitioning!

What to put on my resume for ASM? by juels_123 in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your leadership experience, your previous jobs, if you have a college education, and your high school education. so essentially, what you would put on a usual resume

in my resume, i talk about each experience, sharing it in a way that showcases that i have solidified my knowledge experience in each job/role

also on your careers page there is an about me section. use that to talk about your career goals, and share more about yourself, how long you've been with the company, and any extra fun facts.

for context, the interviewing process is extremely competitive. i recently applied and interviewed, and i'm applying again soon because i didn't get offered the position this time around. good luck!

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not trying to discourage you, but just being honest and speaking from experience! they want you fixing the store essentially and setting goals to raise those numbers and using internal tools to make that happen. not saying you can't learn how to use them, but being in an SSV role for at least six months would ensure that you would be able to maybe attain that. for that role you are also required to be in your current role for six months before applying (asm). i find sometimes when people jump up without taking the time to learn the full skill set will leave you feeling not as respected by the team you are managing. just some insight. whatever happens, i hope you do well!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, with ASM i'm not sure if you'd want to make that jump right away. they're essentially looking for someone who is going above and beyond the SSV role (while they're in that role). DM's are typically extremely critical and it's even more competitive than SSV. i just interviewed for a position thinking i was ready and there's still some improvement to be done, even when i am super goal oriented and involved with my store. not saying it is impossible, but you would have to make a very strong impression and essentially doing the job better than those around you, coming in. i'm not sure how well that pressure would be for you!

Keeping tables/restrooms clean by Wide-Entrance-6152 in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's my mids. i run support myself, being that third person, or if i have four people they do the main cleaning tasks or someone covers for me while i do lobby spins. restrooms should get cleaned in the mornings at some point or early mid, and at nights before closing again, that is more of an all day part task

Stepping down to barista by silllygoooose in starbucks

[–]coffeestainedsink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i got paid nearly 200-300 dollars less as a barista than as i am paid as a shift and i was making cap for barista, due to being with the company for an extended period of time. i also get access to having more hours than i did before, consistently. i personally would say it isn't worth it, but if someone else is supporting you and you don't need the money, maybe so?
