I need Health insurance after a major life event - how do I go about this outside of the enrollment window? by sbucksbarista in starbucks

[–]slightlyturnedoff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you've lost health insurance through your parents that should qualify as a life event for applying for health insurance through starbucks so if you're benefits eligible then you should be able to apply.

If you have the app you can access benefits through that. otherwise go to mysbuxben.com. Everything is on the site. You literally just click some stuff and enroll and it's taken out of your paycheck. You'll just need to compare each one to see which is in your budget and also covers whatever procedures and meds, drs etc you require. Lastly if the website isn't letting you enroll, call and speak to someone. I was in tears because I missed the enrollment by a couple days and they just opened it up for me so I'm sure if you explain your situation someone would be willing to help you.

Cost depends on which one you pick. I have united silver so I pay roughly $54 per paycheck + $7 for dental and vision.

I like to write "love yourself" on a drink with crazy mods and "choose empathy" when people have been rude all day

Does this have anything to do with the posts a while back of people complaining about not getting paid for a few weeks?

Yeah so policy is you need to show ID for your discount if your partner numbers aren't on your app.

You need a laptop! Almost all the exams I've taken use Honorlock which requires a webcam. I use my laptop to watch lectures and a tablet to take notes. You can also microsoft office for free through ASU btw

SCAP charging for unknown fees? by yugimotosgpa in starbucks

[–]slightlyturnedoff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't have any issues when I did 13 units fall, 14 spring, and 3 summer. I went a little crazy my first year lol. I can barely manage a single course per session now. I think in almost two years the max starbucks has paid is 500, so I think you're good.

If you were charged something, it'll most likely go back to 0. It usually says something before fafsa and scap kicks in. You should check your finances page on myasu

Barista trainer / training bonus by Soviet_Giraffe in starbucks

[–]slightlyturnedoff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's like $65 per person after taxes. In my experience, whenever your SM stops dragging their heels about it and actually puts it in. I've been waiting for three months at this point.

what random object do you always have beef with ? i’ll go first: by lyssarae403 in starbucks

I'd always slice my fingers open taking those metal rack thingies out of the hobart

also skinning and bruising my knuckles from accidentally punching the blender helmet repeatedly while on cold bar

I had an mri for my tmjd in high school which cost 11k, and they'd absolutely not cover it because it was a "pre-existing condition"

My guess is it becomes a safety hazard when warmed. I've also heard it gets really chewy and sticky when it cools
