2nd day as a barista! (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Redecide
First day was super boring and a lot of the basics... The second day (today) was all the customer support role. Really fun and it's so nice to finally be doing stuff!

Y'all are so nice to the new people, it's insane! Love every single one of y'all ❤️

Yeah, this post hurts my soul because I know they’re in the same honeymoon phase I was. I don’t want the flame to die out but it’s hard not to be cynical some days at Starbucks. 😔😔

Alright I’m a month in. I’ll admit this job is chalanging and i can only imagine what it’s like at a busy store. But this is a sub where people vent about work. Not many people will talk up the job here. But don’t let people discourage you. If you have trouble remembering things just ask,99% of baristas will gladly answer any questions. The job has its bad moments. I’ll admit I’ve cried on the clock. But i genuinely like this job for the little moments. I work at a store without drivethru so i get more customer interactions. And sure you get the occasional group that wants food and drinks right now and will pester you. But for instance at my store there’s a regular who comes in and he’s just so awsome. I actually burned myself making his drink today. But just seeing the smile you can put on people’s faces makes the day for me.

When a customer gulps the drink and lets out a sigh saying “yep, this is good.”

That gives me life. It’s rare, but it happens!
