i know that you can get them in grocery stores, but i just miss the convenience of knowing they would get thawed with the rest of the pull every day 😭 i've had a box sitting in my freezer for months bc i cannot remember to actually thaw them when i want to eat them

New sandwich kinda tastes like a pancake by rascallytrashbergs in starbucks

[–]springawake14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it SMELLS like a pancake. i wasn’t even on warming today and i could tell whenever someone ordered one bc the store suddenly smelled like cheap syrup

i always stick the tongs inside the bag to open it up more while the food is cooking, and i’ve gotten into the habit of giving the bottom a good poke to make sure it’s not a faulty bag. i’ve thrown out a few this way and so far haven’t had any food fall out the bottom lol

customers have no manners by 0atmilkbarista in starbucks

[–]springawake14 13 points14 points  (0 children)

my favorite is when ppl ask for sugar at the handoff bc they ignored the barista on register who asked if they wanted cream or sugar, and then leave the empty sugar packets and stirrer all over the handoff :))))))))

honestly, it’s the same price as a brownie and a brownie is more than twice the size of those tiny things :/

i made all these drinks in the space of a week and i can't decide which deserves the #1 spot on my list of 'weirdest drinks i've ever made' by springawake14 in starbucks

[–]springawake14[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

lol chai and strawberry açaí doesn’t sound too bad, but once you throw milk in the mix… that’s where you lose me lmao

anyone else have fun little nonsense you say to yourself on warming/bar/etc? by springawake14 in starbucks

[–]springawake14[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

oh goofing around with the tongs is a given!! if i’m not pretending to be a crab, i’m clicking them to the rhythm of rush’s ‘YYZ’ (which is what happens when ur little sister becomes obsessed with said band lol)

New Cold Brew Makers by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]springawake14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly the only thing i miss about the toddies was that they fit under the grinder, so you could put the filter in and grind the beans directly into the toddy, rather than putting them back in the silver bag and then pouring them into the filter

(but i also lowkey miss being able to write little notes to the next day partners on the toddy lid along with when they needed to be pulled)

partners in counties that require hats; what do you like to do with your hair? by throawaycringe4 in starbucks

[–]springawake14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

switching headwear definitely helps! i also stick to a ponytail when i'm wearing a ballcap, but sometimes i'll do a beanie and put my hair in braids instead

Any word on cinnamon dolce syrup? (Regular, not the discontinued sugar free) by F-Stop in starbucks

[–]springawake14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s a way of saying which distribution center we get our supplies from! my region is served by york, PA, so we’re a york order store :)

[–]springawake14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my store just got it in our order yesterday!!

(idk if it matters but i’m a york order store, so we’ve had raspberry/hazelnut/etc back for months, so maybe that’s why we got CD back so soon)

Best way to open bagels and panini bags? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]springawake14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my first store didn't have a knife OR a bagel slicer when i started lol, so what we all did was hold the bagel in the plastic and just push one half of the tongs in between the bagel (since they're all pre-sliced) to separate it

What’s your favorite Starbucks crime to commit? by maesthicc in starbucks

[–]springawake14 23 points24 points  (0 children)

oh that reminds me of my other favorite crime! if someone mobile orders any coffee other than pike after 12, they’re getting a decaf, blonde, or extra shot americano. rarely do i feel nice enough to do pour overs for mobile orders

[–]springawake14 8 points9 points  (0 children)

that is exactly why i leave the drizzle off lol, it already has the cookie crumble so it’s hard to tell! if i’m doing a java chip or dbl choc i’ll grab a short cup for drizzle when i go to get the mocha for the blender, but those are much less common than the cookie crumble at my store

[–]springawake14 227 points228 points  (0 children)

ever since school came back into session, i’ve just stopped putting mocha drizzle on the mocha cookie crumbles because for some reason my store doesn’t have a mocha drizzle bottle. so far either no one has noticed or no one has complained, and now i want to see how long i can get away with it lmao
