On a popular Reddit thread, a Starbucks employee made a viral list in the hopes of customers seeing it. They say it will help to make the whole ordering experience run more smoothly. Number one on the list: \u201cKnow what you want ahead of time. If you know you are going to Starbucks please know what you want or ask for recommendations, it keeps things flowing and the baristas can do their jobs efficiently.\u201d Number two relates to greetings, \u201cWhen you get to the ordering screen, wait for the greeting. we are told to greet everyone so there WILL be a greeting\u2026please do not yell into the screen as soon as you pull up. Also, keep in mind that there is a good chance the barista taking the order is doing other tasks for their job.\u201d Number three speaks about customers\u2019 manners \u201cWe appreciate manners. a simple please and thank you will do. We are human beings too.\u201d Others involve pulling up close to the window, and being payment-ready. Another states: \u201cWe don\u2019t appreciate commands. It\u2019s very discouraging when people start their sentences with \u201cgive me a\u2026\u201d or \u201cy\u2019all better have\u2026\u201d People weigh in on viral Starbucks list After the list was posted on Reddit, many were eager to weigh in with their thoughts: \u201cI\u2019m so sad to see that baristas feel the need to post this. It just shows how s**t we\u2019ve been treated when all we\u2019re doing is our jobs.\u201d \u201cPLEASE pull close to the window! I can\u2019t tell you how many times I\u2019ve went home with literal bruises on my hips from leaning out the window,\u201d another shared, followed by a crying emoji. One barista claimed that customers greeted them after pulling up to the screen, instead of waiting until the barista is ready to serve them: \u201cIs it annoying? Yes. Fuck yes. Holy shit, yes, but telling them not to greet you at the screen, or even a \u201cHey I\u2019ll help you when we\u2019re ready\u201d will not change this behavior.\u201d One had their own rules that they\u2019d like to add to the list: \u201cWe can hear what you say at the box. So that knock about our jobs, the high pitched giggles about something you think is funny but really isn\u2019t or personal conversations we can hear and we will judge you for it. Don\u2019t want prying ears? Wait the 5 minutes until you leave the window with your drink.\u201d Another Starbucks employee went viral after an altercation they had with a \u2018Karen\u2019 at the drive-thru.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
