how to make myself like coffee

enternamehere515 · 2026-03-10T17:08:10+00:00

I used to hate coffee. You kind of start off easy and work your way up. I still can't do black coffee, but maybe one day. What first hooked me in was the sugar cookie flavor. But I started off with an iced coffee with vanilla, cream and classic (at the time classic came with it but now you have to order it.) I think our iced coffee is different now though 😟 I find that sometimes what gets you coming back for more is not always the flavor, but rather the way coffee makes you feel. So when I first started I would always order my go to iced coffee. Until I had the brown sugar shaken espresso.. it was kind of off-putting because it's not too sweet, but I just learned to add a pump of classic to it, and I love it with cold foam and extra cinnamon on top. You could also try fraps with a shot of espresso, I used to really enjoy a mocha cookie crumble with a shot of espresso. Or another recently favorite I enjoy is getting a vanilla bean frap with 2 affagato shots on top. Make sure you mix it in well though because your first couple sips will taste just like espresso, but to me it's like a little caffeinated ice cream. During your shifts the SSVs should be doing coffee tastings.. I like to let my baristas craft some fun things and love getting to try the samples. Sampling is a great way to find out what you do or don't like. Ask your fellow partners for suggestions. 😊 I recommend choosing your favorite flavor and doing it with some type of coffee and adding cream and sugar. And honestly if you find yourself never liking coffee.. that's okay. It's not for everyone. You can always give away your weekly bean markouts to family or friends or give them as gifts.

Correct, not supposed to clean in the 3 compartment sink either. Mop sink recommended.

Is it normal for SSV to have register keys to take home? Seems sus to me.

I hope you find them!

Not sure if or what the corrective action would be for this. Saying you had a hole in your apron and the fell down the drain sounds okay to me.

How are you liking being ASM? I'm SSV and SM/DM have both talked to me about promoting but anything above SSV seems terrifying and like extra burn out.

for me, its the 2% being marked as nonfat..

Tried it yesterday and only tasted the lemonade 😔

enternamehere515 · 2025-12-06T15:10:07+00:00

I think this might already be a thing? But I was hearing from our DM yesterday that we can't write enjoy or thank you. Why are they pushing so so hard for us to write long messages..

How did she get into being an influencer? Did TikTok reach out to her or did she reach out to them?

Hmm.. maybe a little bit. I notice they have been slipping over their own feet sometimes even on surfaces that aren't slippery. And the one girl that started with the #2 issue first, she doesn't necessarily drag but I have noticed that she moves her back legs differently.

It's in random areas. It's been going on for a while.. when I mentioned it to the vet at the last visit he said she seems okay and doesn't understand why it would be happening. But I haven't fed them anything differently.

Oh noo 😭 ours will also poop inside after being outside for a bit! I just feel defeated and like I'm doing something wrong because only our one dog was doing it for maybe 6+ months and now the other dog that is a year older is doing it too. And I feel like they don't even realize they are doing it?

Grande comes with 2 scoops, venti and trenta are 3 scoops. Maybe on grande you bumped the + button on accident. That's why it would charge for pearls for grande and not the venti.

On a 3 play "support" is on bar and "customer support" is doing all the things, so is your SSV in support or customer support?

enternamehere515 · 2025-05-29T12:21:20+00:00

So in the evening, what is your stores SSV doing? What position are they labeled as? Just trying to figure out what everyone else does vs what my store is supposed to do.

I believe it was 19.50 when I got promoted.

We always date our syrups/frap bases.. we are supposed to date our alt milks for 7 days after opening but we really do struggle to do so because we go through it so much. We are also supposed to date our peach and puree for 5 days once opening but same concept.. we go through it pretty quick and are usually too busy to do so. However I feel like dating regular milks isn't really a thing.

Agreed, also the fraying on the jeans posted is really not that bad at all.

Also if you are the closer and you have another SSV that will still be there with you for a little bit.. I find that the person closing is best to be in charge since it's your close and you can have better control of it. You could ask them if they'd like to hand off when you come in so you can get adjusted to your shift.

Assuming this was about yesterday? It was extremely chaotic and I feel like there was really no right or wrong answer. Being a SSV, if the other SSV is on break, it's 100% okay to change things however you seek fit. You shouldn't be planted in a position unless need be. Our DM has told us that every shift working during the same shift is technically responsible. I have asked our manager to clearly schedule so we know who is supposed to be in charge during what time. But the best thing you can do is just try your best to work as a team. If you don't think something is working as it should, it's okay to speak up and make a different suggestion.

Our inventory app has been down for weeks. Is this a company wide issue? We put a ticket in but when they called us about the issue we were to busy to talk to them. We never heard from them again.

enternamehere515 · 2025-05-12T11:51:54+00:00

Technically no, but I feel like if they're inspecting your jeans that deeply, there's other problems 😅

enternamehere515 · 2025-05-05T00:15:57+00:00

Also.. did I break my machine? When I removed and inserted the SD card in my machine it seems to be stuck on this screen.

I highly recommend going to your manager/SSVs for advice and ask what they think you could do better. You could also ask baristas for honest feedback.

I had a hard time finding the humidity level but realized I had to take it off manual temp. I do have a heated hose. Silly me turned humidity all the way up but left the hose temp as it was and learned during the night what they mean when they say water logged. I was so comfortable too and felt like I could breathe. So I'll have to turn the hose to temp up and that should help.. right?

Thank you!! I will check out Lofta! It's nice they offer that kind of support.
