Dome lids (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by shmeep10
Is it only me or are the dome lids really hard to put on all of a sudden
Buxxbarista 29 points 1y ago
This! I feel like they’re extra thick right now

Nah, I find it to be fun, I love squishing a drink in front of a waiting customers eyes /s
I have no idea what's wrong with these lids but if I accidentally crush another drink I'm gonna cry

Thank s happened a month or so again, was fine for a while, and now we are having issues with the nitro lids🙃 ngl tho, way less of a pain in the ass when it's nitro lids and not done lids for frapps😅

It’s the best watching someone attempt to put one on then spill the beautiful drink they just created…it’s happened waayyyy too many times to count

Rip the venti caramel crunch with extra extra caramel drizzle that was sacrificed today because of the dome lid

It’s been a 3-4 months for us …. Love smashing an exxxtraaa carmel drz frap all over me (especially since we get one case a week though we go through one case in a day ) …. my fave thing to do

They’re difficult to put on on and off. Sometimes it’s the dome lids being warped. Sometimes the cups are incorrectly sized. I found that out by experimenting with putting a single dome lids on different cups and it slid easily on one but wouldn’t fit on another

The magic trick is often putting it in another same size cup and then trying to put it on and then remove the extra cup after. It stabilizes the cup. Not always useful for green beans because it’s still hard anyway, but try it once.

shmeep10 [OP] 2 points 1y ago

Cassssssssandra 1 points 1y ago
some mfs are just cracked out ig, I just sit in window all day so thankfully I don't have to put on too many lids or I'd be exploding a lot of frapps
shmeep10 [OP] 1 points 1y ago
I'm on bar most the time or up front and the amount of lids I have to use is crazy, one day I hope to be cracked

Double cup it! It’s how I did every drink w whipped cream and worked so well
Dominicmeoward 2 points 1y ago
I spent a good 30 seconds putting on a lid the other day, and then 20 seconds on my next one
Pretend-Coconut-3767 2 points 1y ago
I have already squished so many drinks
natalieeil 2 points 1y ago

stealingsight 2 points 1y ago
its on and off for long periods of time and also depends on the store
xoMisaa 2 points 1y ago
