Damn y’all so out of almond milk you wrote it twice?
Seriously, that’s how the other store in my district is. Luckily, knock on wood, mine has been pretty well stocked aside from some food items.
Siren_Song252 [OP]49 points1y ago
People won’t stop asking for it 🤣
garbanzone25 points1y ago
Spoiler: they still won't stop asking!
emileeavi11 points1y ago
If they ask again, make one sign with "OUT OF ALMOND MILK" in bold letters
sh3nan1gans_4 points1y ago
It doesn’t help the sugar cookie is an almond milk based drink either
Elliotisnotokay1 points1y ago
Weird. In Canada its made with oat
celcity61 points1y ago
You mean oat? What
sh3nan1gans_4 points1y ago
The sugar cookie is made w almond milk
Lost_Treat_629673 points1y ago
😂 automatic ordering is so hilarious to me.
We don't have any alternative milks other than coconut, I fucked up our last package of mocha (don't even ask), and the only food we had yesterday were egg bites and grilled cheese. Literally. This shit is a fucking joke
defendpoppunk7733 points1y ago
I hate automatic ordering with a passion. They doubled our order by accident so I had to find out what to do with 400+ breakfast sandwiches. I came close to crying.
rnaggie5310 points1y ago
At leas it’s good to know all the stores are struggling bc of it. My store we keep doing everything right w the automatic orders but we’re getting nothing. There was one day though they sent us like 12 trays of sandwiches.
fawnaluna7 points1y ago
automatic ordering decided to give us TEN CASES (NOT BOXES) of soy milk. they ended up outliving their shelf time and we had to throw a lot of it out.
Lost_Treat_629617 points1y ago
y'all took our fuckin soy milk is what I'm hearing.. 🤬🤬😂
fawnaluna5 points1y ago
the only warning we got was someone writing “my sorry” on the boxes 😩
canidieyet_3 points1y ago
i swear it’s always when you’re using the last of something that it gets messed up lol
honeybeebi3 points1y ago
me,,, who dropped and spilled our last two boxes of chai
crackcuttinjoe2 points1y ago
I live in a remote location so we get 1 shipment a week for everything and our automatic ordering for food has cursed us. We haven’t received any bacon goudas or sausage cheddars since then. We don’t carry any paninis or sandwiches for rtde at all due to freshness. ONLY FROZEN
SelocAvrap66 points1y ago
For any lurking customers, no it's not called a "medicine ball" and no it doesn't have medicine in it. That's just a nickname for the Honey Citrus Mint Tea, which you **should not come to Starbucks for if you are sick.** Don't be that guy
Edit: phrasing
IfuDidntCome2Party4 points1y ago
I thought for sure someone was going to flame the partner for listing it as a medicine ball, since many of you here despise making it and having customers who order it. Surprised someone would list it as that in a store.
SelocAvrap4 points1y ago
Yeah idk why they didn't just write "HCMT" since it's so much shorter. I don't want to flame them though, they're just doing their job and kind of drowning
NothingToSeeFolks0 points1y ago
At my store we have so many brand new baristas that barely anyone knows how to mark cups anymore. They would have no idea what HCMT means.
Craftyallthetime1 points1y ago
And since we’ve been out of honey blend for months and now are out of honey, we’ll have to come up with a different sweetener (I recommend brown sugar over agave for ease of serving and not dealing with stupid plastic packets that get sticky).
CampbellsCat27 points1y ago
we literally ran out of 2% at 5pm
ghetto-skooter9 points1y ago
yesterday we ran out of 2% at 1pm, out of whole at 5pm, and now onto out little bit of nonfat😔 we’ve also been out of half and half and heavy cream all weekend… our opener (me) forgot to order some on saturday and then never came for sunday. im also a closing ssv and new to opening
hailvy1 points1y ago
It happens. A new shift forgot our milk order last week and we struggled, but we made it
ayakowantsmemes1 points1y ago
I've gotten used to starting my shift (block starting 1pm) without much 2% ahahaha :')

tangerine46x21 points1y ago
The only holiday drink we had left was toasted white mocha today & ran out of heavy cream so no whip
Various_Ad_297219 points1y ago
We’ve had no 2% for a whileeee now and yesterday we were completely out of food by 4pm and on top of that, no mocha, and superrr low on heavy cream 😊
sero507418 points1y ago
I think you’re out of almond milk
Best_Strain313315 points1y ago
One of our Mastrenas is down, nitro is down, and almost no pastries..... Sunday had no mocha. We are in the same parking lot as a Walmart so we don't hurt too much about milk.
sero507412 points1y ago
We’ve been out of caramel brûlée, mocha, chestnut praline, strawberry açaí and mango dragonfruit, all of our grande sized cups, all our cake pops and sugar plum cheese danishes, 2% milk gets low every day, apple juice ummm what else…. Thanks automated ordering!
haydensidun7 points1y ago
Holding up better than you apparently
Fluffybunnybadass6 points1y ago
Oh god i'm on vacation this week and come back on thanksgiving, i'm afraid of what i'll find
I know we were out of a handful of things and got over-ordered on nonfat so bad during tay's drink that we had to use it as a primary milk cuz we have maybe..... 7 nonfat total in the store at any one time? That's how little it's ordered? And often two of them are expired on the floor when i go to check their dates...
nerdsonfire3 points1y ago
I see you still have fucks in stock.
Siren_Song252 [OP]1 points1y ago
Barely
Several-Government823 points1y ago
Well last week we were out of ice coffee, regular espresso, and cold brew beans….literally don’t know why we stayed open 😵💫
There's more. I just can't remember because the list is on my register. Lol
gryyfin2 points1y ago
We’ve been out of pumpkin sauce for like a week and a half 😭 god help me
arash18192 points1y ago
At the beginning of October, this women came in asking for a pumpkin spice latte, and i was like i am so sorry but we cannot make this today. She got upset, and i could see it on her face which tbh I understand the feeling. Then she said: can i just have a latte? Me: ok. She: can you add 4 pumps of pumpkin sauce to it?

Superduperfreddy2 points1y ago

mini-maggit2 points1y ago
The only pastries my store has left is scones and bagels 😭
wildaloofrebel552 points1y ago
Out of mocha, caramel brûlée, peppermint AND the god damn app keeps letting people order all of it on mobile
Oh! And boxes for travelers
taylortherod2 points1y ago
My store is out of almond milk, oat milk, grande iced cups, grande dome lids, a shit load of food items, and I’m pretty sure there’s more but that’s all that comes to mind
fannytraggot2 points1y ago
We’re also out of almost all milks, toasted white mocha, chai, sugar cookie, vanilla, and sf vanilla syrups. Going in to open now and not looking forward to the angery customers
Necessary_Low9391 points1y ago
One time we were out of all non dairy milk except for coconut. Our store just went to Walgreens to get some.
Over_Environment_5621 points1y ago
good to know my location isn’t the only one <3
hippiewitchtravels1 points1y ago
Glad we’re not the only store… I’ve come in twice in the last week and any pastries we do get in the order, are left out by the delivery people also 🙄
dull-plastic-s1 points1y ago
Not holding up well. We have no oatmilk, peppermint, heavy cream, sleeves, stoppers, trays, peach tranquility, dragon inclusions, sugar cookie syrup, sugar cookie sprinkles, soon no chestnut praline, Irish cream and chocolate powder 👁👁 these customers are going to come for my neck
maddawgg7101 points1y ago
I swear this was my store today😂😭 one of our machines was broken and I was the only one on bar 😭we also ran out of 2% mid shift
sbell-txt1 points1y ago
Literally the only food we had today were blueberry scones, ham and cheese croissants and cranberry bliss bars 🙃
WonderfulYam24401 points1y ago
We’ve been out of every single goddamn pastry for the past week.
spacebrain4201 points1y ago
We ran out of all alternative milks for about 7 hours the other day. It was so slow because most people in our area get alternative milk so it was nice to have a change of pace.
xoMisaa1 points1y ago
we ran out of nonfat today!🥲🤙🏻 we didn’t have almond for a few days, we don’t have h&s croissants and we haven’t had them for DAYS now and we barely have any pastries left! gotta love automated order!🥲🥲🥲
the_monkey_socks1 points1y ago
I work at a Tarbucks
Our whole Target store is out of 2% and Heavy whipping cream. Has been for nearly 3 weeks now because thanks Prarie farms.
We haven't seen hazelnut or toffeenut in months.
We have so many boxes of trenta lids because they keep sending us trenta lids and just... no cups at all. We end up using our food avenue cups for venti and trenta cold cups.
We ran out of grande holiday cups
Almond milk is a joke
Sugar cookie is gone
Oat is hanging on by a thread
Strawberry Acai is clinging to life.
We got only one package of reindeer cake pips. That's it. That's all we got. People are pissed at us and we order and order and order and JUST DONT GET THEM. WE DON'T SELL ENOUGH CRANBERRY BLISS BARS, STOP SENDING US SEVEN BOXES EACH ORDER D:
the_monkey_socks1 points1y ago
Oh and we aren't allowed to post signs about it. Hehe thanks Target management.
SplashStick1 points1y ago
Yesterday, my store was out of toilet paper, trash bags (bought both of those at Walmart all week but smh), all breakfast sandwiches, all lunch sandwiches, and just about every pastry besides scones and bagels. At least we had milk for *most* of the day…
[deleted]1 points1y ago
[deleted]
Gameb0i61 points1y ago
Damn. We have all that at my store.
RinnTheOtter1 points1y ago
As of when I walked out today, we had run out and gotten more grande hot lids from a nearby store, but we’re still out of sleeves, carriers, nonfat milk, and now sugar cookie syrup. Honestly I’d say we’re holding out okay 👍
StealthModePhoenix1 points1y ago
No honey blend or honey packets for medicine ball No small shopping bags No sleeves No holiday venti cups (people throwing fits about getting a white cup instead) No warming bags No sugar plum cheese danishes No snowman cookies I'm just so done 🙃
Strong_Challenge13631 points1y ago
We have no food 🙃. We're all tired, our SM has made several of us cry 🙃🙃🙃
vandilor1 points1y ago
we are out of oatmilk, almondmilk, espresso, and grande cups! and plenty of other things
Zestyclose_Ad46981 points1y ago
Automated order is killing us
Blue-Jay271 points1y ago
We are out of every pastry except brownies. And those aren't gonna last much longer. We're also in a mall, so black Friday will be... Something.
extrashotE1 points1y ago
lol we are suffering and two days late on the RP
sh3nan1gans_1 points1y ago
Awful. We’ve been having to go on a milk run nearly every day. And customers get fussy when we don’t have their alternative milks when the starbycks down the road a bit does
XxSleepypanda1 points1y ago
Out of oat milk, blonde espresso, caramel drizzle, white mocha, straws, and I’m sure we are out even more today 🥲
nevernot6131 points1y ago
we got 7 gallons of 2% my last shift
the1noir1 points1y ago
Fine, but having product makes my day easier
ryannmm51 points1y ago
my store was just closed from the 11th-21st so we’re pretty good on most stuff rn😳
wok3less1 points1y ago
oat milk, blonde espresso, sugar cookie syrup, stoppers, sleeves, grande iced cups, every single breakfast sandwich, employees… need i go on ?
arash18191 points1y ago
Every store in our city is out of stopper 😖
SuggestionShot13121 points1y ago

No_Introduction86891 points1y ago

whatisprofound1 points1y ago
Starbucks bout to celebrate the 50th anniversary by going back to selling only brewed coffee. Except we never get enough Pike either.
kingkira1231 points1y ago
Yesterday we were out of every food item, since our truck never came to deliver product.
hailvy1 points1y ago
The other day we ran out of 2%, nonfat, and whole milk, as well as almond and soy, and it was a Saturday
ObnoxiousR1 points1y ago
Yes
growinginnyc1 points1y ago
Cue tantrums from cranky customers
Impatientone931 points1y ago
My store they keep not sending us food so we’d have no breakfast or lunch sandwiches and then no pastries on top of that. And our milk man likes to not bring our full order so that’s always fun.
Waggles04211 points1y ago
We have basically no holiday syrups 🤷🏻♀️ except chestnut praline and we just got a single box of peppermint so I don’t expect that to last
distraughtcato1 points1y ago
We were out of mocha, lemonade, chai, cake pop, half the paninis, and a bunch of other food items
verkruuze1 points1y ago
Public health inspector here. How are you cleaning your bathrooms if you're out of cleaner?
distraughtcato7 points1y ago
All Starbucks have sanitizer so they probably used that, but not really the place to announce yourself unless you have any helpful tips
verkruuze2 points1y ago
Thanks for your helpful reply.
Using sanitizer for the bathrooms is expensive and of questionable efficacy. Bleach is a great cleaning agent, and is cheap.
PeachGreenTea__1 points1y ago
It’s not normal to run out of restroom cleaner ie bleach. But when we are working, we don’t always have someone available to just run to the store. I’m sure they notified the manager and someone is working on getting some cleaner but until then they are out and will use whatever is available to use.
It’s not like they are going to wait a week for the correct cleaner to show up, this will be resolved quickly. Likely before they need to even use the cleaner.
IfuDidntCome2Party1 points1y ago
The SM or DM could go to a grocery store and buy some things they need for stock, as they do with milks. Someone needs to be fired.
There is no excuse for waiting for an order of cleaner to arrive.🙄
I worked at a restaurant and the SM would go buy cleaning products all the time, because we weren't waiting for a shipment. Our location was always rated the cleanest, and we went through a lot of cleaning products.
