Mother fucking Jazz and Alicia Keys (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Tarable-03
Is anyone elses store predominantly playing God damn Alicia Keys and Jazz NONSTOP no matter how many times you change the station??? Itll play some reggae or whatever you choose for a couple songs and you forget what's playing them BOOM!! The same damn Alicia Keys songs over and over and over or some crazy loud jazz. It might have been less today but I'm still irate.
(Rant is over. Thanks for listening to Tarable's bitchfest. Come back next week for The fury of the Secret Menu orders)

We've gone rogue. The cafe isn't open so we've just been hooking up our own Spotify playlists. All clean versions of course.
I Know we aren't supposed to. But desperate times call for desperate measures.

My store has done the same thing. Tomorrow I’m setting up my playlist because they haven’t let me do my music yet

I do that when I'm cleaning somewhere away from the drive-thru and its chill enough to hear it and just play it on my phone in my pocket or some shit. I just press shuffle, clean or not. Yeah, I know. I'm kind of a rebel.

We do that too but if we have an aux cord it gets hooked up to the main system too.

Same! We've got to have some fun while dealing with this craziness.

Clearly they got a deal going with theme Alicia Keys people. Change it, and 3 songs later BOOM she is back. Probably guaranteed a certain number of plays in some promo tie-in.

Yep. It was going on for about a week, but then my fellow partners and myself have been swapping playlists! It makes the work less bleh.
Tarable-03 [OP] 1 points 3y ago
Do you hook it up via aux to the system?? We just turned our music completely off again. I'm gonna have to talk them into playing some of their own music tomorrow.

Yes, we do. Usually we use our Spotify playlists, so no ads. Best fo luck convincing them! Hope this helps!
