it’s absolutely mind boggling that they would even expect that

Homies be shook when they realize chef Mike is just 2 buttons and a caffeine addicted tong wielder.

People complaining about the pre cooked bacon being raw is my favorite

Wow

people need to do better 😭

“Can I have a bacon Gouda extra cheese extra bacon”

I mean...technically the "kitchen" does close a half hour prior to closing.

what??? 😭

i call it a toaster. it's not an oven; it's just toasting.

To be fair, if he only ever goes through the drive-thru, he would never have seen that.

Also people are oblivious

Toaster oven yeah

that’s what i don’t understand. everything is visible. i think some people like conflict.

what leads people to think this is an option

LMAO that’s so funny i didn’t even notice

that’s so frustrating! we’re basically mcdonald’s like cmon

What island???

Seriously I don't understand the thought process. At every other place in the world where you get handmade, fresh cooked food, it takes more than a minute. And these same people complain when their order takes more than a minute or two! Do they think we've defied physics?

i could see if it were a small business, but it’s a global chain. that makes zero sense honestly who are these people? the have to be NPCs these aren’t real thoughts people have.

if they want it that way they can pick it out. but low key the feta is the best part.

Chipotle does make their gauc, chips, and rice from scratch every morning. The cheese is also freshly shredded from a block. I do get your point though.

Dunkin makes their sandwiches fresh!! I was in charge of that at a Dunkin for a while that's how I know

Wendy's is now handing out a flyer that they hand crack their eggs (unlike McDonald's). I know Hardee's still makes their biscuits. Oh! Little Caesar's makes their dough and sauce. That's the only ones I can think of, though.

Panera! When I worked there they hired overnight bakers. Everything was made fresh every single day and if we sold out, we sold out. Bagels, loaves, pastries, everything. We always had fights over who got the last brioche buns cuz they were GODLY.

We also hand made our yogurt and fruit cups. We had huge tubs of chobani yogurt we would mix up with granola and fresh fruits that we would prep and cut in the back. Making the fruit cups was the best cuz when we would cut the pineapple specifically, whoever did the prep would always save everyone a ring cuz it was our faves lol. Also any messed up fruits just went to us. I remember having a full like fruit salad as a lunch one day from the fruit scraps.

Not to mention the quiche things we had were handmade and when they went out of date when breakfast stopped, whoever in the front would be like “hey does anyone want these” and we’d all be in the back for like 5 min just eating em lol.

Although I work for starbucks, i will always ALWAYS respect Panera for being pretty much the only chain that hand makes most of what they sell.

i wish i could omg

Tell him you’ll have to charge him for both. When my store first opened, I had someone in DT ask for sausage cheddar and egg on a bagel and I explained that it came pre-made but I could charge him for the bagel and the sandwich. He actually went for it. If you give them something that sounds like their only option, they’ll usually go for it.

That typo made me giggle. Thank you

Hehe glad I’m not the only one who saw that

Right, and you raise the animals, too 🙄 /s

that would send me over the edge.

that’s upsetting :/ i feel crappy when i eat too much starbucks food and my skin starts to breakout … that’s probably not a good sign

at least you were nice about it. no harm in not knowing as long as you’re nice!!

The cheese on the bacon gouda already looks like a Kraft single.

IM DOING THAT

Wait, has it really already been frozen for 6 months by the time we get them? I've never thought about it, but now I'm curious.

why is that low key really sweet though

i stg

the joys of working for the bux :)))))

honestly it was shocking but my fellow partners and i had a good laugh

i feel so bad for you. that sounds awful.

fair enough. i’m just upset he thought he could scream like a child about his precious cheese danishes lol.

they come frozen but they’re never frozen for long. we do a pull the day before to let them thaw and they go pretty quickly. anything past the date dot sticker gets thrown out/donated at the end of the day and fresh frozen pastries get pulled.

but that’s the best part…

it would be nice to have higher quality food but honestly with everything else we’re responsible to do i don’t know if i could handle adding a whole ass kitchen/ bakery.

that’s ridiculous 😭

ms. girl if you want the whole loaf bake your own 😭

LMAO

that’s a good tip, unfortunately my store could use it :/

>Without a doubt every one of you is ignorant of something

Well nobody is acting like theyre perfect or have no imperfections or like know-it-alls. We are on a starbucks subreddit specifically for baristas. We are allowed to talk about, relate, and vent to eachother about anything starbucks related. If u dont like what ur reading, u shouldnt be on this sub commenting. The one for both customers and baristas is r/starbucks.
