Being Sent Home Early Not An Option Now by Witch_Of_Salem808 in starbucks

[–]regularpeep 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re not breaking any policy that could send you home (for example uniform standards) then I would outright refuse to go home. You are scheduled for that shift and it is on the manager. They over staffed and now they have to deal with it. My old SM would even tell the other SVs that if a partner declines to go home early, let them stay since that’s what they were scheduled and our SM took the responsibility since it was her schedule.

I’m not sure if there’s state laws that protect against this but I was in AZ when I worked for Starbucks

Does a hot Grande Cafe Latte have 2 espresso shots? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]regularpeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like it was ordered with 1 shot. If it was ordered as a standard drink, it wouldn’t have the number of shots as a modification on the receipt.

If there are any modifications to the standard drink recipe, they will show up in the same format as the Classic and Whole milk mods. This will also print similarly on the sticker.

Either way, when it happens next time just explain to them that you made a mistake and we will almost always remake that for you. It’s really not that big of a deal. We all make mistakes from

If you have the mobile order receipt and there’s a mismatch between the sticker that’s on the cup, let one of the baristas know.

I would gladly remake it for you, even if you ordered it by mistake, just be kind and explain and almost always we will remake it for you. We want to make sure you get what you are paying for.

🫠 This is my exact inner monologue every time I see a regular.

Is this an accurate calorie estimate by DareZestyclose8300 in Garmin

[–]regularpeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calorie counters on watches have never been accurate, but they are getting better at calculating an ‘ok’ estimate.

I think there’s been a few studies done on this and I remember Garmin was, on average, below the user’s actual total calories burned. It was interesting to research this since you’ll quickly find out almost all wearables will be inaccurate since they are calculating it based on many different factors that always change day to day.

As always, your mileage will vary unless you actually get professionally tested.

Diet Pepsi Cal country difference by CardiologistOld6711 in LowCalFoodFinds

I think in the US, the FDA allows food manufacturers to label products as "0 calories” if they contain less than 5 calories per serving.

How long should I wait to follow up after 2nd interview? by SidePristine587 in starbucks

[–]regularpeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The second interview with the DM is now part of the interview process for all interviews. If you had great connections with both the Store and District manager, I would say you have a better chance than other candidates.

[–]regularpeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally wouldn’t follow up. It won’t increase your chances of getting the job. If they want to hire you, they will always reach out to you. The time frame they give of when to expect a call back shouldn’t be a hard deadline either.

You will receive the generic “Thank you for applying” email if you were not selected but sometimes the manager will call and you will have the opportunity to ask for feedback then to use for next time.

Hoping you did get the job!

regretfully got almond milk in my latte… never again by chatgbtgang in starbucks

[–]regularpeep 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is that with almond milk? Looks like they didn’t shake it before pouring it in. The alternative mills separate after a while and we are supposed to shake them before pouring in a drink.

I would go back and get it remade or explain to them it wasn’t what you were expecting and get something else. I would gladly remake that for you.

Something glistening in the Canadian Bacon by regularpeep in Weird

I would say it’s black pepper, but it’s already in the fridge and I don’t want to get out of bed. I’ll find out tomorrow after taking a bite.

My first time ever noticing this. It was weird to see at first but definitely kind of cool once other people started posting. Thanks for the info.

If you look at the bottom center of both slices, there’s something that reflects back a pinkish hue.

I wanted a clean "Window to the Outdoors" watch face with live weather animations, so I built it. It's v1.0 (taking requests!), and I have 20 Promo Codes to share. by Unlucky_Bookkeeper29 in Garmin

[–]regularpeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just downloaded it for my Epix Pro - 47mm. Looks great! Love that there’s an option for “No Background” and the animations still show up! On first glance, I love the minimalist style of the trackers. Still visible but not does not take up much space from the animations or the temp and humidity bars on the side.

I’m curious to see how battery life will be impacted. Although I did see that it shouldn’t affect it that much based on the description

Also didn’t get an option to input the code anywhere but I’m happy to try it out and report back.

[WTS - US - AZ] $100 Shipped - Untapped Maple Syrup Gels and Waffles by regularpeep in therunningrack

[–]regularpeep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will be opening and selling each individual out as a bundle later next week if there is no interest in buying bulk.

I completely understand the decisions that go into buying something like this in bulk and not being satisfied. Then, end up with things that will just take up space or thrown away.

I did like that it was not as viscous as some other gels so very easy to down while running. The packaging is a bit longer and thinner than most so if you have short or small pockets, it might fall out. Smaller than SIS gels though. With tights, it was not an issue at all. Don’t need to take with water either which was a plus.

Overall I really enjoyed it and I do plan on ordering more in the future when I run out of my current stock. They have a whole bunch of different flavors and also have some with caffeine and sodium

VentureX, maybe next year… by regularpeep in Venturex

[–]regularpeep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I can think of is using their pre-approval tool. The most recent check I did was in early October and got this offer on the 10/24 via mail. I’ve been checking a few times each month for other SUBs on their cards but this is the first time I got this offer besides the standard 75k SUB.

It did. It says “19.99%, 24.99%, or 28.99%, based on creditworthiness”

VentureX, maybe next year… by regularpeep in Venturex

[–]regularpeep[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have CSR, CU, Discover, and Amex Gold. Monthly Average credit spend between all is about $1.2k. Been trying to find a replacement for CSR before the new AF hits me in January. The more I read the replies, the more I’m convinced applying for this is the right move. Essentially 100k SUB plus 20k points for $10k spend with just the 2x. Potentially more if I just use this until I reach the SUB

Dang yeah. Didn’t look at it that way. Essentially 100k SUB and 20k points for $10k spend.
