Incoming Hire (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by storm_and_puddles
Hi there! I’m a new barista at my local Starbucks and my first day is next week; does anyone have any tips, tricks, advice, or need-to-know information that will be useful as a new hire? Thank you all in advance! :)
Update: Thank you all for your advice; I regret to inform you that I hate my job and fantasize about quitting and walking out every shift 💕

I guess I could say the there's gonna be a ton to learn and you're gonna make a ton of mistakes. So don't be afraid to ask questions and try learn from the mistakes instead of getting discouraged

my advice to any newbies: don’t be afraid to ask questions. it’s better to be slower and get things right than to be quick and do it wrong and have to remake it. That goes for ANYTHING— drinks, back ups, teas, hot coffees, cleaning, anything. don’t be afraid to ask questions. I’m a 2.5 year partner and still ask “dumb” questions sometimes. lean on your team & make friends, it’s a lot of fun to enjoy the people you work with! <3

sometimes your coworkers might be annoyed at/mean to you for not knowing how to make some drinks, how to punch things in, being slow, etc, but remember it's not your fault at all! also /r/starbucks and /r/starbucksbaristas are pretty useful if you forget anything
