Made my first board! Needs work but still excited me 😂 (also thought it was funny because I literally just saw a post telling people NOT to order this drink due to the hassle)(i.redd.it)

You must hate your coworkers

This is really simple. What's the hassle with it?
spook-17 points2y ago
it’s encouraging “secret menu” drinks , if someone comes to my starbucks ordering a “love bug frapp” it’s like ??? sorry we don’t know how to make that, so it makes it confusing for customers as well.
Agartha33-5 points2y ago
I still don't get it. I just tell people that if they can tell me the ingredients, that I'm happy to make it. Otherwise it's an unofficial drink.
I love seeing the creations people have.
It gives them power to make their drinks and learn about our menu, and know what they like.
Edit: Honestly ya'll, getting upset about this is ridiculous.
DragonS0l2 points2y ago
I think the problem is that people usually don't remember the recipes. They just remember the name. Then they get upset because we don't know it and say that they always order it at another starbucks. It's not our job to know "secret menu" items. Sure if they know the recipe then that's fine. More often than not they don't though and get mad at us.

I volunteered to make them all when I’m here, but when I’m not here.... well 😂

I work at the busiest store in our district and modifications just SUCK unless it’s something like an extra syrup or a shot or something SUPER quick
Bryancreates5 points2y ago
At least you listed the price with inclusions, vs. the made up drinks that get advertised randomly and customers don’t realize will end up being like $8-9 for a grande drink or whatever.

Pretty sure frappes are something McDonalds sells, not Starbucks.
Allison_822 points2y ago
It’s the shortened version of Frappuccino, I’ve been working here for nearly a year.... thanks
gjroberts934 points2y ago
Fair enough, these secret menu drinks are trash and suck for those of us who work at busy stores though.
Allison_821 points2y ago
My store is crazy busy and people looooove doctoring the shit out everything..... it’s ridiculous

You did an awesome job the hearts are so pretty!! ❤️ 💕

I'm curious as to what normal mods are made to a drink in your areas that adding chips and a topping are a hassle, lmao. im about to transfer!
Allison_822 points2y ago
I meant someone posted on reddit that it was a hassle.... Personally I think it’s fun
jasonsamoacookie4 points2y ago
I would think it’s fun too! I work at a kiosk and no one orders fun drinks, everything’s just standard. I think it’s bc we don’t have mobile and people are embarrassed to lol.
ea3746162 points2y ago
Ughhhh and a kiosk would be the perfect place to get weird with it. Come up with crazy drinks and offer them as like a "try this today..." type of thing.
I would print the sticker for my drink that week and pin it to my apron as a suggestion.
Allison_823 points2y ago
This is what we do! Im at a kiosk too but people don’t stay standard at mine. They doctor the hell out of everything 😂
jasonsamoacookie1 points2y ago
Oooo we don’t have stickers but that is such a fun idea to make like a daily drink and put it up for people to try!! My store isn’t fun like that haha.
c_reckless352 points2y ago
Don't listen to some of these people! You tried doing a really nice thing and I thought it was very thoughtful of you to do something so creative!
c_reckless352 points2y ago
Like it's not even that complicated.
Anxious_Database2 points2y ago
It’s Frappuccino not frappe. We don’t work at McDonald’s
Allison_821 points2y ago
Maybe get off your high horse and chill out he fuck out
Anxious_Database2 points2y ago
Nah I don’t think I will. It’s also just very annoying to have to deal with dumbass secret menu drinks with unnecessary modifications. Have you ever worked in a store when the drive through line wraps around the building, the cafe is packed full of people waiting for their drinks, and you’ve still got mobiles coming in? It might seem simple to you but every unexpected mod people make on their drink slows us down and stresses us out.
Allison_821 points2y ago
In case you didn’t notice I posted the sign in front of my store not yours 😁
Anxious_Database1 points2y ago
Ok. But then after they see it at your store they will come through my drive through and order something that’s not on the menu then get mad when I ask for a recipe because “well they made it for me at the other store”.
Allison_82-1 points2y ago
Guess you weren’t taught that frappe is the shortened version of Frappuccino 👍🏻
Anxious_Database2 points2y ago
Nope, it’s not. Frappe is something you ordered at McDonald’s. The shortened version of Frappuccino is frapp
Allison_821 points2y ago
I didn’t put the accent over the E, like what the fuck is your problem. Literally just trying to post some thing that I thought was cute.....
spook-10 points2y ago
you’re being such an ass in these comments, just come to terms with the fact that no one likes your poster because for one we don’t sell “frappes” & we sure don’t sell a “love bug frappe”. We sell frapps. It’s wrong. Move on with it.
Allison_820 points2y ago
Fuck off 😂
spook-10 points2y ago
“The difference between a frappe and a frappuccino is that a frappuccino is a Starbucks trademark and so only they are allowed to sell them. The word Frappe is used more generally to mean a blended foamy iced coffee drink.”
