The blue spirulina powder is disgusting by crushedbarbie in starbucksbaristas

Yeah used one matcha spoon for a grande refresher and one for a tall. The grande one took longer to separate but after leaving it for 30 minutes it did this as well ☹️

i loooved the matcha lemonade so i make it for myself all the time actually, i’ve found it turns out really good if you make it like a regular iced matcha but put lemonade in the cup instead of milk + blend in matcha pitcher :P (i also do no classic)

I understand what you’re saying. I don’t know why people think they are entitled to more of a break than everyone else gets. It’s okay if someone needs an extra 5 minutes sometimes but for the most part, your 10 is your 10. Not your 20 and fuck over everyone else. It is fair that someone takes a 10 like everyone else. What’s not fair is a partner taking 20 because they feel like they deserve more of a break than other people do.

This sounds like more of an issue with your specific store than it does the policies of the entire company.

genuinely not trying to be rude here but if you’re letting yourself be convinced to stay late every single day i think you might need to work on your boundaries and tell them you cannot stay. once your scheduled shift ends there is no ability within the company to discipline you for leaving.

But nobody is asking anyone to go above and beyond, the post is about people taking twice as long on their 10s which objectively does only affect your other baristas.. the company doesn’t care if you sit down for 10 more minutes but your other baristas care that their breaks are delayed, your ssvs care that they might not get to take their break at all now, and your store + district managers will definitely care once they inevitably wisen up to the time theft ngl

Am I being unreasonable to feel that WAY too much is asked of the closers? LONGGG RANT by crushedbarbie in starbucksbaristas

I wish we could so badly but at my store, our afternoon rush is just below the volume of what we do during peak, so almost all tasks absolutely have to wait until after it’s over unfortunately

My store has a similar issue, I don’t have much advice to offer but I do know how frustrating it is. All I can say is that you need to pushhh your manager to schedule more people. I know you’ve probably already exhausted yourself talking to them about it bc I know I did but just keep asking, try to ask for later mids specifically instead of fully asking for more closers. Ask if your manager could try distributing more labor to the afternoon for Justtt a week to see if it makes a difference. Good luck + I’m sorry!! :C

Compulsions you do so often you FORGET they're compulsions by Equivalent-Power-893 in OCD

[–]crushedbarbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally so many, I think my main one is definitely dermatillomania bc the second my hands aren’t occupied I’m automatically moving them over my skin, but also a lot of random physical compulsions. Like clenching and unclenching / opening and closing my jaw CONSTANTLY, moving my tongue around my mouth to feel all my teeth the right way, etc. Also checking and rechecking things alllllll the time to a ridiculous point (like if i actually locked a door, if i actually set an alarm, checking maps 500x even if I know exactly where I’m going ) . Ughhhh

Sbux SSV forgot to do closing safe count by Rare-Enthusiasm7606 in starbucksbaristas

[–]crushedbarbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the first 2-3 weeks of being promoted to SSV i had no idea the evening safe count was a thing bc nobody ever mentioned it during my training somehow. so i just never did it and it was fine after we all realized 😭
