No batch blend, only 5 seconds

You can fit four if you put a g/v dome lid on the top of the blender before you close the lid 😏

I use a refresher lid. Super sturdy. 😂

ooo ill try that
Avuneon 1 points 2y ago
My manager got rid of the lids, so it's just loud, and we hold the top on by hand

You should just *accidentally* forget a blender pitcher lid so they can see how stupid a decision that is.
Avuneon 1 points 2y ago
Oh, that occasionally happens. Honestly, the worst part of it is the deafening noise. I wouldn't be surprised if my coworkers and I have done hearing problems as a result.

three ventis??? oof i get scared at two!!! i told my bar partner one day that there were five talls of the same and was kinda like "...maybe just do two and three?" naw she did all five and i was just kinda... watching in fear

Hahahahah I am that partner. So dead at how everyone just stands and watches in fear at the 2 ventis and grande I have blending.

I got a great tip: add an extra pump or two of base when you have Ventis or multiples

Our DM didn’t say anything when she saw us batching. Our SM does it herself. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Rather be yelled at by a superior from a low paying job than at a customer who doesn't know what kind of stressful job we have and why we're not getting hazard pay for it 🙃

It’s not your SM, it’s a corporate policy. Trust me, our DM ripped us on it during a visit once and it was the most degrading experience I’ve witnessed. We are very high volume but we will dump anything we see double-batched because isn’t worth me getting written up for. Trust me, do I think it should be possible? Absolutely.

I’m in a high volume licensed store. I’m sure the policy still stands, but I haven’t seen the district manager yet and I’ve only worked with the starbucks lead twice so I’ll continue to batch until someone says something
