Today I accidentally crushed a venti white mocha when I was trying to put the lid on. Quite the mess.
tempests-ofdust18 points2y ago
hey we must be twins..... today i crushed a venti mocha and spilled it all over myself, the bar, and the floor during a massive rush.

Pro tip: double cup just to put the lid on and remove it before handing the drink off. It gives stability so the cup doesn’t collapse and send a venti no ice chai with cold foam directly into the ice bin. Ask me how I learned.
mattbones16 points2y ago
100% i still surprise my coworkers when i do this
astivana8 points2y ago
Wait why were you putting a dome lid on a cold foam drink
olivinemultichrome8 points2y ago
They wanted whip on top of the cold foam and without ice it’s less messy to put the whip on through the dome lid so it doesn’t just overflow the cup 🙄
lilLivvyp3 points2y ago
I haven't had a cup collapse on me but I'm going to do this just so it never happens.
Saradigm3 points2y ago
I have to try this!
Saradigm16 points2y ago
These lids are frickin killing me
Fucking caramel crunch
Or always on my perfectly topped works of art it gets all messed up
lilLivvyp2 points2y ago
Same! And I always put a tad too much frap in the cup, so that when I put the lid on, drop liquid squeezes out.
AndrewSaidThis16 points2y ago
Why do grande cups repel them?
GimmeCl0ut12 points2y ago
Tik tok drinks will be my demise
cilantroprince8 points2y ago
when the whole cup buckles as you’re trying to put on the lid ✋
ryzzostar5 points2y ago
I feel this deeply in my little siren soul...
xEman26x8 points2y ago
They snap on those reusable cups with ease though

I AM SO GLAD THIS ISNT JUST MY STORE. I’ve almost broken BOTH my thumb nails trying to get them on my poor thumb is so red and scratched from trying to get them on. I’m OVER IT!!! Had to throw out a whole sleeve of dome lids 3x today. Nobody could get them on.
lilLivvyp2 points2y ago
To save your thumb nails, try this method. Thumbs together and pointer fingers together and press on the lid edges at equal pressure, if that makes sense.
Still a little struggle but no physical pain.
E-X-P-A-N-D6 points2y ago
I thought I was the only one! My coworkers put them on so easily at times
SpookySteve3 points2y ago
Or better yet...
Teenagers ordering the same fraps: You can't defeat me. Baristas: I know, but he can. Venti dome lid on a blender lid making three vents at a time:
Lollipop_Lawliet953 points2y ago
LOL FOR REAL!!! If that lid slips your whole hand is going in there ;-;
Brgnbo3 points2y ago
Does anyone else’s tall dome lids straight up just not fit the tall cups?? Ours are super loose and fall off if I grab it to rough
InevitableOk57722 points2y ago
Ours have been like that for over a year, I've just accepted it at this point
bryceofswadia3 points2y ago
it’s the tall dome lids for me. they don’t even go on anymore, they just kinda sit on there
starphasedbabe2 points2y ago
this morning i was one more difficult venti dome lid away from a mental breakdown
yeeet-haw-baybee2 points2y ago
dude our tall dome lids are always loose af too i always have to be like pls be careful with your lid i promise i put it on the best i could but they’re Garbage
PartTimer_PandaSan2 points2y ago
memes like these make me laugh, and make me thankful I no longer work at starbucks.
hot damn
Lebeanbarista2571 points2y ago
At my store we have the same problem but the dome lids fit the venti they won’t fit the grande to save our lives!
c8ham1 points2y ago
I’m so glad it’s not just me
uwojwbsc1 points2y ago
Mmm so i’m about 3 weeks in or so and made tall frapp today… for some reason our tall dome lids are higher than our grande/venti dome lids so ya girl grabbed the wrong lid in a rush and spilled frapp *everywhere*. My sweet little shift’s were very sweet and comforting because they could tell i was beating myself up 😅
thehj171 points2y ago
i thought i was the only one 😭😭
kxnkycxrly1 points2y ago
especially when they don’t wanna fuckin fit
agigante021 points2y ago
no because FUCK any type of dome lid
TheGoaT1581 points2y ago
I love when the cup collapses when I try to force the lid on
r9kAnna2 points2y ago
Ive dropped the same drink 3 times bc of this. I had to leave the floor....smh
SyerenGM1 points2y ago
Yeah I dont know what it is using the grande cup + dome lid lately but I gotta fight with it to get the darn thing on. A few I had to just pour into a venti!
[deleted]1 points2y ago
Or when you manage to finally get it on and your thumb goes right through the goddamn hole
ZaftigZephyr1 points2y ago
It's both dome lids for me but I figured out it's much easier if the rim is completely clean and I haven't had nearly as much trouble with them but still occasionally.
TemplarSensei71 points2y ago
V-venti dome lids?
Been years since I worked at Starbucks, what’s that, and how is it different from the dome lids for grande and venti?
Add in edit: unless that was the personal cup?
C0ffeeCoffeeC0ffee5 points2y ago
It's the same, it just hits different when you explode a venti iced white mocha vs a grande.
TemplarSensei71 points2y ago
Ah. Yes. That’ll do it.
ryzzostar1 points2y ago
They seem to fit the grande just fine...but the venti...I think the cups are actually the culprits here...not the dome lids...at least at my store.............
