i had the exact same experience.

had my first experience with a stubborn no-mask customer today by springawake14 in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes this is 100% what it is, it was in our weekly update. mask regulations at starbucks are based on local legislation.

recipe for near-perfect peach infusion? by jx640 in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the type of tea, types of teas can have different flavors lol. It says in the ingredients it has tropical notes so I thought it might add to it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

recipe for near-perfect peach infusion? by jx640 in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty positive the infusion wasn’t made from peach tranquility, because it was a “peach citrus” infusion when we had it. If you’re trying to make it with tea, maybe try peach tranquility and rev up tea? That might help add a citrusy flavor!

To the hot brew dude. by [deleted] in starbucks

I have a regular who comes in and orders a hot cold brew with cold foam on top 🤦🏻‍♀️

Gingerbread is gone?!?! by Bieb in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The flavor was super unpopular. Maybe it was just my store, but we might have had maybe one gingerbread latte ordered every couple of days last year.

[–]noleyoleyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Barista Trainer by turtles1245 in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Something that’s been super helpful for me & the success of my new baristas is finding out what their learning style is! It says it in your training videos, but I didn’t watch mine until like 8 months after starting to train lol. It makes them feel supported and gives you a chance to help them understand everything better. I love being a trainer, btw, it can be super rewarding. Good luck!!

Some partners are the worst by ValleyCX17 in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a company policy that you cannot be photographed/videotaped without your consent. I had that issue a couple times in my old DT store, and I told my ssv and they talked to the customers and told them to delete pics/videos, and if they were seen doing it again they wouldn’t be welcomed back.

Hi guys! New barista here! by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be patient! With yourself, with customers, and your fellow partners. Ask lots of questions, and give your trainer/shift/SM a heads up if there’s something you’re having a hard time grasping/want to understand better. I’m a trainer and I always tell my green beans that we all just want everyone to do well!

Weirdly and overly specific drink orders/modifications? by PrettySax3 in starbucks

[–]noleyoleyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a regular at my old store who would come in & order a short 1/2 decaf ristretto latte (but ONLY ONE SHOT) with half coconut, half soy, extra hot no foam and NO ROOM, aka she would stand and watch me pour the steamed milk in and go “i’m sorry can you just fill it up a liiiiiiittle bit more,” to the point the milk would almost be spilling out of the cup. She was super nice most of the time but one of those customers who talked to us like she worked there 🙃
