I barely know the drinks on our menu

someone made like a iced chai 2 pumps of caramel 2 pumps brown sugar oatmilk a splash of heavy cream with vsccf on top with cinnamon powder and cr drizz. i commented saying damn why make our jobs harder and they were like “stop being lazy” yea ok totally not like we’re already hella understaffed working 3 people being the only starbucks in a 70 mile radius and getting fucked by customers who tell us how to make the drinks. so yea ig i’m lazy

Honestly I wish all tik tok baristas would get fired already. I’ve already seen about a dozen videos on the new summer drink, which is hella not supposed to be advertised. Tik tok is the worst thing to happen to social media.

I despise tiktok Baristas with every fiber of my Siren-bound, soulless husk of a being

I thought it was just me that hated this. Why turn a 3 step drink into a 10 step drink?!?!! You can’t even sequence effectively without having to keep checking the label

I think Starbucks just spoils customers. Too many options and people just want to make weird shit and expect us to be cool with it. I love bar but if it's peak and I got 25 crazy ass cold brew concoctions with sweet cream foam in a row, ya boi is gonna need a minute to solve it 😂

Idk how you can work here and morally make a tiktok with an annoying recipe

i just saw a tik tok where they CRUSHED UP DRAGONFRUIT PIECES AND MIXED IT WITH WHITE MOCHA TO MAKE A DRIZZLE like can we even do that?!?! even if a customer asked for that i would say no, but like what’s the policy on stuff like that?

Had a lady come in asking for a king cake frapp and she wouldn't stop calling it a king cake frapp like lady please.

someone the other day came through the drive thru and was like “can i have a pokémon go frappe?” and all of us legit said “what?” out loud lmao

rule of thumb: if they dont know... i dont know...

Spoiler alert, they are just selfish douches who are trying to become influencers. I saw the same thing when Vine was big and then it was blogs.

There’s a happy medium between customer and barista, I remember when baristas would refuse to acknowledge what a pink drink was.

Haha!! I've wondered this also!! Lol! Change it up at least with something different to say! Those drinks are too much! All that sugar, omg!!

“I’m so sorry. I’m not familiar with that drink. Do you happen to have the recipe?” In my sweetest saccharin customer service voice while also flipping off the camera screen. 🤷🏼‍♀️

dude every time i see a tiktok drink on my for you page i want to comment so bad to tell them to stop. my store is always busy and all of these new drinks just make my job 10x harder. plus it feels so gross to be giving people a drink full of that much sugar

I swear to god if one more person asks me to put pistachio in the vanilla sweet cream cold foam...

What I don’t don’t is how do these people find time to pull out there phone and record a whole video?? We’re always mega busy. And I would instantly get in trouble for being on my phone out in the open

traitors to the apron 😔

Someone came into my store asking for one of those things and said because a barista came up with it we HAD to know what it was and that I should lose my job because I didn't

TikTok baristas are the biggest assholes. Like we get it, you work in bum fuck nowhere, but some of us work in actually busy stores. Fuck that TikTok drink noise. I say no

I saw one on tiktok that's 'ask for a mystery drink'. If you make them your favourite, at least we know what's in it.

Imagine whoring out your job, against the will of your every coworker, for internet clout.

Say it louder

I saw one where they had a frap that required the barista to make a whole new syrup using white mocha and something else to drizzle in the cup. People in the comments were LOVING it, some complained their baristas “were bitches bc they refused to do their job and make me what i want!”

I tried telling people that yeah, we aren’t going to make it because it’s really fucking complicated to order and a lot of us work at DT stores. I’m not getting my ass ripped about times because you want a cup of blended sugar ice. You can imagine the replies I got, telling me to quit or asking where I work so they could get me fired since I hate my job sooooo much 😆 Tiktok baristas and their minions need to touch some grass and get a reality check.
