I just remembered this (self.starbucksbaristas)

The other day I made a drink I don't remember what it was, maybe an upside down caramel macchiato. That doesn't really matter though. I call it out, the guy comes and thanks me and walks off as he tries it and he walked back to tell me it was perfect 😁

It's the little things that keep me going

I was on DTO/DTW the other day and a passenger at the window asked me who made her drink. I told her it was Partner A and the passenger told me to relay the message that the drink was “the shit.” I told this immediately to Partner A while standing next to the open window. The passenger corrected me and said “this drink is *legit*.” Roaring with laughter I shrugged and relayed the correct message, and a good time was had by all.

Love the compliments from happy customers!

One of the rare times when it's important to hear the word 'the'

Yesterday someone asked for a dry cappuccino and smiled in surprise and told me it was perfect when I handed it out. It's so nice when people appreciate your craft

what is a dry cappuccino? just foam?? no foam?

a dry cappuccino is a really really foamy cappuccino. For reference, normally you’re supposed to aerate the milk for 6-8 seconds for a cappuccino. For a dry cappuccino tbh I just aerate it until it reaches 170°. It’s delicious and quite an awesome craft :)

Should be all foam for a dry cappuccino as far as I know

This!! A couple days ago, I was on register and some older lady was asking me all kinds of questions about if we still had pineapple and what I think she'd like. I offered the pineapple matcha, and the guava passion fruit drink, but she really wanted a Frappuccino. I told her we don't really have a pineapple Frappuccino but we have our pineapple ginger syrup that we can add to whatever she wanted (ultimately being a strawberries and cream frap with the pineapple ginger syrup). And a little later on after she had gotten her drink, she made sure to get my attention and give me a thumbs up and a smile!

One time I got a phone call from a customer telling us we made his drink perfectly. Another time a woman ordered a Pink Drink in the drive-thru and said, "I could marry the person who made this drink!"
