Starbucks Baristas: The daily grind

There should be a way to save crazy drinks for regulars (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by RewardInteresting521
This lady comes in every day and orders a
venti caramel frap:
Double cup,
Two scoops venti ice,
No whip,
No drizzle,
7 pumps frap roast,
6 full pumps caramel,
2 pumps classic,
Triple blended,
4 pumps cream base,
1 pump coffee base,
single

It literally takes FOREVER to ring up. I wish I could just search her name and it would save it.

Have you guys though about teaching her to use the app? Then she can just save it and order it that way.
RewardInteresting521 [OP] 51 points 1y ago
She can’t customize it that much in the app. Literally more than half the stuff we have to write in ask me, so she doesn’t have that option.

In theory an ask me button for customer would be great, but good lord would it make everything so much worse in reality.
glittersparklythings 13 points 1y ago
Ahh gotcha. Yeah that is a pain then. That would be a great feature

Great idea in theory, until 9/10 “ask me” is VSSCF or extra caramel drizzle or 4 shots espresso over ice “filled all the way with oatmilk” and it’ll just be more of a pain in the ass for baristas to explain over. And over. Why we can’t do free up charges for everyone

She sounds like a god damn nightmare.

Thankfully she isn’t rude, just very particular

How does this fit in a cup?? If it's more than a venti size, she should be paying for two drinks
RewardInteresting521 [OP] 24 points 1y ago
We just fill up the cup and dump the rest 🤷🏻‍♀️ she never complains about not getting everything

I had a nice regular with an odd order who couldn't remember all of it every time so I suggested she take a picture of the sticker to show the cashier (or read to the drive through I guess? We weren't a drive thru.)

Dutch Bros has a system like that and once again Starbucks fails to catch up

RewardInteresting521 [OP] 1 points 1y ago
Lmao I know. Like it really changes the taste
FfierceLaw 3 points 1y ago
We’ve got one of those too and she expects the extra with sleeves on both cups. What does this concoction do for them?
Slow_Truth8 1 points 1y ago
Double cup?
RewardInteresting521 [OP] 1 points 1y ago
Just a cup inside a cup
hammerkat605 1 points 1y ago
What does double cup mean?
RewardInteresting521 [OP] 2 points 1y ago
She just wants a cup inside a cup

I’m assuming a cup inside of a cup the same way we do for bagged teas and short cups but I’m not sure why she would want that here?

**Double Cup is the first studio album by footwork musician DJ Rashad, and the sole full-length released during his lifetime. It was released on October 20, 2013 via Hyperdub.**
