Man I wish. I solo barred peak today and was steady at 43 seconds. Only to have the dm keep coming through and ordering cloud macchiato while I have drive, mobile, delivery and cafe orders coming through.. drive time went up to 49 and I was scolded about needing to keep drive thru times lower...

I’m sorry to hear that, but solo barring by yourself even at that time is impressive if you’re juggling all those orders. Seriously, you’re the best you can, and that’s all that can ever be done. As long as you’re doing that, don’t be discouraged. You’re doing excellent work, partner 👍🏼

How rude! Our DM supposedly rarely drinks Starbucks anymore except when new promotions are released as she’s tired of it after 12 years with the company

i’ve never heard of a dm coming through repeatedly and ordering drinks - is that new??

He was in the store since open. Interviewing and talking with the manager. So he was in the store and just kept ordering the clouds.

it's a manager's job to make things easier/more efficient by identifying problems, and the super important next step: FIXING them -- not exacerbating them...
guy should probably be fired or demoted

I used to work at a cafe store and worked a 3 person play because two other people didn’t show up. 20% mobile orders and an avg 50 per hour in cafe soloing bar. I cried to myself but it was fun!

I’d be ready to lock the doors and call my SM. My SM and ASM both day they’d never leave us alone, but there was one time where they had to shut the drive thru down temporarily because she was by herself. We’re the 3rd busiest in the district. My SM said you can disable the mobile orders but if you’re caught doing it for any reason besides like a power outage or robbery than you can be fired

our peaks are always the worst thing ever. whoever put a working a small kiosk in the middle of the mall by the food court is stupid.

There’s a mall store in my district, and my SM said she had to work there while training to be an SM (she has a college degree in project management so she was promoted from barista to SM) and she said she would advise anyone not to apply to a mall store. She ran the mall store for 3 weeks and said that it was non stop Frappuccinos and refreshers, often you’d work with only 2 people, it was too tight of a space and the big milk fridge and dish room was a 5 minute walk from the kiosk.

yup that's like exactly what happens, except most of the time we get lines of 20 people with big orders and my old manager was dumb and would schedule too little people on super busy days and too many on empty days. love working in a mall.
