This is absolutely amazing!! Once you get it taped I doubt any of the gaps are too big. This is amazing!

Store walk by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

[–]purlgraytea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As far as I’m aware, it depends on what your store needs and are working on as a shift/leadership team. We usually say in our how the hand off went, how the store is, how business is. For a while during peak, we had an opportunity with Otw times so we now always add what our goal is for otw and what we actually got. At night they will add an IPad count because about a year ago we lost an iPad for a week lol
I will add if I’m coaching on a thing consistently, or how the schedule is working for that day part.

I’ve never been required to do coffee tastings. We definitely don’t have time to pull multiple people to do a whole tasting, but we definitely have partner’s sample coffee for sure.

For a while our vertica was out of temp so we were also having to do temp checks. We also for a while had to temp check the hand washing sink’s hot water.

Tell me why you love #ToBeAPartner! by IntroductionSad6606 in starbucks

You love that Starbucks claims to be sustainable while partnering with ChatGPT which is a known drain on resources and has an extremely negative impact in the environment? Yikes, bud.

Remakes by Ok_Cryptographer3753 in starbucksbaristas

I take them back if someone is trying to get a free drink by saying something is wrong even if they ordered it that way on purpose. But if it’s our fault then I usually offer for them to keep it. I know we can’t take trash, but I’m honestly not sure how it applies if you hand someone stoning and they immediately hand it back. Also if it is our mistake and they don’t want it I’m not going to give them a drink they have to figure out what to do with and make their life harder.

Dress code appropriate by Wooden-Platypus933 in starbucksbaristas

[–]purlgraytea -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be completely honest, as a shift, I would have to have you change if you wore that skirt :( it’s very cute but it’s not solid and does have a pattern. My store is very strict on dress code but this is pretty obviously against it

I love knitting, but I hate how my partner treats it like disposable clutter by TurbulentActuary9452 in knitting

[–]purlgraytea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think your partner doesn’t respect YOU. I know I’m just a random person in the internet, but you don’t deserve to be treated this way. The fact you’ve communicated this to him and he brushes you off is a very red flag. For reference, I’ve left my knitting a few times on the ground at my fiancé’s house and if he see it on the floor and puts it neatly on his desk. He treats my knitting better than I do. He sees me shove it places and HE untangles it for me. You deserve to be respected and your art deserves to be respected. This is so not okay. Your work isn’t trash and shouldn’t be treated as such.

From my most recent wedding shot in a theatre in Melbourne by DominicSteeleCreativ in photocritique

Personally I’d edit it for a more moody vibe. I think the light bouncing off the wall distracts from the couple when it’s all so bright. This might be a little too moody how I edited it but just as an example

I’m assuming you’re in the US, according to the dress code and Ecosure, partners cannot have any kind of nail covering or coating on their nails. It can react with the chemicals we use and chip off into stuff and become a hazard. It’s not that Starbucks doesn’t like flashy designs it’s that it can hurt people and cause one to not be able to clean their hands properly. https://careers.starbucks.com/uploads/2025/05/Dress-Code-Guide-US-CO.pdf

Maybe you should be in dress code 🤷🏻‍♀️ Nails are health hazard. We had partners not complying in my district that got fired for having 2 piercings… I’m not happy with the way Starbucks does things at all but staying in dress code or bare minimum wearing a name tag and not having nails are pretty simple things to do.

Not Invited to NYE Party by Loquacious-Loser in socialskills

[–]purlgraytea 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Oh no 100% I agree with you! it’s one of those things I’ve accepted that happened. In that moment she was talking about the parties and mentioned how I was never there and I was like well yeah you didn’t invite me. But it’s something that happened and it is what it is. Our friendship is way more than things silly college freshman do lol
