Newbie Tasks (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Interesting-Start408
My first day was yesterday. I learned Customer Support (? sanitized high-traffic surfaces, made whipped cream, prewashed/loaded dishes, etc). What is following the next two weeks you think? Thanks

my training was only 5 days but after learning customer support i did register training, and then drive through, then bar and the last day was cold bar!

Cool. I figured the bars would be last. Thank god, right. Is register difficult?
Thanks!
Thanks!

it’s really easy! there are a lot of buttons but once you get the hang of it it’s super easy

customer support is a great starting point but i wouldn’t consider it a ‘newbie task’! it’s a super crucial position to helping support all of your baristas 💕
-you’ll probably learn pos (Point of Sale, aka the register) next, so you’ll be ringing up customers and getting to know the computers! it takes awhile to get used to because there’s soo many buttons, but don’t stress yourself!
-if you have a drive thru, DTO (Drive Thru Order) will go alongside POS training, where you’ll be taking orders over the headset.
-you’ll also learn warming, aka the ovens! this is the food area, you’ll be dealing with breakfast sandwiches, wraps, paninis, and pastries!
-From there, hopefully your team can get you some bar time! getting here depends on how busy your store is and if they are able to set aside the time to teach you.

Cool. No drive thru at this store, but there’s one at the new store I’ll be working in. Which is y i have to work at a diff store next week. I don’t mind all the buttons. I’m more concerned about bar lol. Thank you for replying.

My trainer didn’t really train me well but my coworkers helped me out. You’ll be fine. You’ll probably learn DTR when you cover DTO.

My trainer hated me for some reason. She was also my shift and tried to get me fired.
