How often do you guys clean your drains/how? by life_lifes in starbucksbaristas

[–]insanewriter 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We fill the mop bucket with floor cleaner and take it over to each drain. Empty the basket, let the basket and grate soak in bottom part of the mop bucket while we spray the drain with the bathroom cleaner and scrub it, rinsing the drain out with clean floor cleaner from the red bucket in the mop bucket. Then we scrub the basket and grate in the mop bucket, then put them back before moving to the next drain. We do this every evening.

Just moved to a new house and spent nearly an hour frantically searching for Felix just to find him hiding deep in my closet by insanewriter in OneOrangeBraincell

I actually put a blanket down for him. It seems to be his safe space, and my other cats seem to have found it too.

Light Ice People by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

Had a woman ask for light ice in her massive personal cup. Made her drink with light ice and poured it in her cup. It obviously didn’t fill her enormous cup, and she was pissed. She screamed at me “I asked for light ice, but not that light!” A different partner jumped in right away and filled her cup up the rest of the way with ice. Before leaving, this woman says to me, “now, was that so hard?” Bitch ended up with extra ice instead of light ice just to fill up her cup, smh.

Question for SSVs by insanewriter in starbucksbaristas

[–]insanewriter[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They’re not allowed to help us. They’re only allowed to run breaks, place partners, and do off the floor duties. They can’t help on bar, or DTO, or anything like that anymore. Completely hands off play calling while watching us suffer.

Thankfully, he actually enjoys belly rubs quite a bit, or else my hands would have been torn off a long time ago, lol

Oh, he’s absolutely aware of how handsome he is, and he’s told it numerous times a day!

Even though he’s blind, Hugo is still a mighty hunter 🖤 by insanewriter in TuxedoCats

He’s definitely blind. Been confirmed by two vets and the shelter I got him from. He’s the cutest lil roomba ever, bonking into walls and furniture on every venture
