Neat, grats on the near 10 years.I've had 13 different managers, I think, it's hard to keep track. Your experience will differ VASTLY depending on store, coworkers, and manager. The old saying, "people don't quit jobs, they quit managers," is definitely true at Starbucks. Some have your back, some are down in the trenches with you, some are corporate slimeballs that couldn't steam a latte and can't actually manage. Yeah, some of our pastries are way underrated. Try the pumpkin cream cheese muffin, especially if you can get one for free. YugiNoob posted... Two questions regarding the name procedure:
If a customer is joking around, I might joke around with their name. "Bob? Oh, short for Bobert! Cool!" "Drink for A-a-ron!" I actually got a guy named "Kane, like the wrestler," today and we talked about the Rock coming back to WWE. The only people I've ever purposefully made wait in line are people who try to order stuff at the handoff, especially waters. It depends on the store and how busy it is. And, yeah, if someone doesn't pick up their drink after the second time I YELL it out, I'm not going to keep bothering. Don't have time for that. It's kinda hard to get other baristas used to projecting their voice, though, and many will just call out the drink without the name. But then there's always the chance someone grabs the wrong drink which just means you're remaking at least two more drinks. --- "You're sorely underestimating the power of nostalgia goggles." - adjl http://www.smbc-comics.com/comics/20110218.gif ...
