These 3 par mids are not going to work when 90% of the drinks are shaken espressos, matchas, refreshers, and frapaccinos. We need two people on bar until at least 5pm. I had customers waiting 8+ minutes in drive today because I could not keep up with all of the cold bev drinks, and I’m a pretty strong bar partner. It’s so overwhelming and results in stressed out baristas and pissed off customers. Don’t even get me started on the shit show that May is going to be with all of these deals. I still can’t for the life of me understand why we fully staff peak on these days and then cut down at 12 w ..read more

I work at a Tarbucks as mostly a weak day closer as I finish up my last month of high-school. I’ve worked there 2 years and have been through the ringer. I’ve had multiple managers, was training at 16 years old, and running the entire store from open to close by myself. I’m just putting that out there to prove that it takes a lot, and i mean A LOT to agitate me as a barista. I’ve seen it all. Well today, we had a family come in an only order a latte. They go to the end and pick it up and immediately hop back in line to order a passion tea with lemonade for their toddler. I told her the total ..read more

So I'm on day 2 of training and I'm getting the whole making drinks thing down, refreshers are honestly fun to make, same with anything involving expresso as well. The flat white might be the most annoying one out of the bunch so far but I am enjoying what I do. submitted by /u/Fine-Recognition1318 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
