Starbucks Baristas: The daily grind

Just got told by customer I don’t know how to do my job (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by jezebelbell
Ordered two white mocha frapps.
Asked me how many pumps went into their frapps, i told them two.

“You do know that it’s supposed to be THREE PUMPS right?”

“Well, it’s actually standard to use two pumps for both grande and venti”

“No. It’s three. I know this. You obviously don’t know how to do your job”

I explained, they argued, so I said goodbye and walked away. They waited at the goddamn window for an extra 3 minutes.

I’m so tired of these kind of people

I always want to tell these people they're welcome to put on an apron and come work peak on bar if they wanna 🥴🥴

Why wouldn’t they just ask for the number of pumps they want rather than arguing? Customizing drinks is a thing.

Oh wow, it finally makes sense to me that the drinks in the US taste so different to the ones where I live... Here it’s 2-3-4 for cold bar and 3-4-5 (!!!) for hot bar. I think we also use more espresso (2-2-3)?

Anyway, what a rude customer. Sorry you have to deal with that so much.

Pretty unnecessary of her to pull that

As a green bean, I did not know this! Perhaps they thought this because on the app it says white mocha fraps get 2-3-4 pumps?

Hot bar pumps pump double the volume of cold bar pumps, and since there's no mocha cold bar pumps, it's always 1-2-2.

pretty sure it’s 1-2-2 hot bar but yes!

I thought it was 1-2-2 shots? 😬 (I’m a green bean though so I’m probably wrong)

Yes for hot bar hot drinks! But fraps are pumps of syrup 2-3-4 cbs and 1-2-2 hot bar pumps into the frap
