I like that no fruit flies can get in there. We are currently battling with fruit flies in our inclusion containers… 😐

In my experience, if there is a fruit fly issue in a store its always the drains. Now I don't mean the typical drains, but the dump sinks internal pipes and drain. I use to get the hottest sanitizer water from the back, and dump it down each dump sink. Then take boiling water from the coffee machine and pour 2-3 entire mark-out pitchers. A 6 digit DM told me about it and sure enough, it helped clear up 2 different stores that had terrible flies. Good luck!

Also sweep behind fridges and spray with bleach if you're not doing that regularly. We had one of our bars go down and moved our fridge to find that it had a ton of stuff behind it 😢

What does 6 digit DM mean?
juiceyluicy 22 points 1y ago
Their partner number is only 6 digits. They’ve probably worked with the company for nearly 20 years if they’re still employed with starbucks. The oldest numbers I know are 6 digits starting with 12 and they’ve been working with the company for around 15 years. All new hires are at 8 digits, but they changed it from 7 to 8 before going through all the numbers. It switched shortly after 300’s started.

My partner number was 7digits, and I haven't worked at Starbux since 2002....

This DM has worked for SB for 24 years I believe. Started as a summer job in HS if I remember correctly.

I love how the whip charges are just left out in the open. We had workers steal them from us constantly until I locked them in a back room in a safe :"(

What…?
TheSuntannSuperman 3 points 1y ago
Yeah. The Co2 cartridges for whip? You can huff them and technically get high off of them. A girl who used to work with me would constantly steal them, and those things aren't cheap
nikkicarter1111 3 points 1y ago
What the fuck.
TheSuntannSuperman 3 points 1y ago
Yup, no joke

HollowGrey 2 points 1y ago
Better than using tubs without the covers. Im not saying we had fruit flys, but there was certainly fruit flys
