Starbucks Baristas: The daily grind

Honking at drive through (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Potet0mash
Today I was talking to one of my favorite customer at the window. He was waiting for his drink and today was the worst day for my location- we ran out off 2%. I think that explains it all. It took a while to get his drink and while his drink was being made, we talked. While we were both having fun time talking, the car right behind him honks. A guy who looked mad was honking at me. He was shouting to me as if I was delaying the line by talking to the customer. Why are people these days so impatient and rude? Genuinely don’t understand. Or am I too mean/sensitive?

We mix 0% and 4% and call it magic milk

ETA: when you run out of 4% use 0% and a dollop of pouring cream
Potet0mash [OP] 31 points 1y ago
Is 4% whole milk?? If so, we were out of whole milk also… our store was literally breaking down. No sandwiches, two percent, whole milk, oat milk.

0%=skinny=red. 2%=regular=green. 4%=whole=blue.

Once we ran out of non-dairy, green, blue, and BEANS. And yet... Were still open. W H Y

Do different companies label milk jugs differently?? Is that a regional thing? Because where I live the colors are

Whole = red
2% = light blue
Nonfat = pink
Normal_Human_4567 12 points 1y ago
Ah yeah I've heard there are different colours for different countries! I described the UK colours :)
mysterious_yams 3 points 1y ago
Oo. Ours is
Whole = red
Nonfat = light blue
2% = blue
Heavy cream = light pink
½&½ = brown

In Canada non-fat=blue, whole=red, and 2%=pink

It’s definitely regional. In my area of the US, whole is red, 2% is bright blue, and nonfat is dark blue.

BEANS? WHAT IN THE HELL
Normal_Human_4567 1 points 1y ago

elodieme1 2 points 1y ago

The fact that I read this entire thread and have no idea what color our milks are. I’m colorblind. I have to read the jugs 😂
Normal_Human_4567 1 points 1y ago
Oh no 😂 that'd annoy me so much, having to check everything before I opened it!

someone was talking too long at our order screen the other day and the person behind her honked, it scared her so much she farted crazy loud, it was so funny and sad

.....did you yell at the next guy? That's disrupting the third place and not acceptable.
Potet0mash [OP] 8 points 1y ago
No unfortunately I did not get the chance to do that 😒😒
Ceja-01 1 points 1y ago
What? Nah I would’ve thrown hands with the next customer. I don’t care about the third place in that moment when Im being disrespected.

no people are mean. starbucks customers always seem to feel like need to be the rudest. i have worked at stores all over the country and i swear they are all the same

That literally just happened to me today too!!!
Some guy in a blue truck was yelled and screaming about how long the line was taking. The car in front of him and behind him were like wtf is his problem?
