    Eventually, somebody with a clue will realize that you can't calibrate a thermometer for a steam wand in ice water. It needs to be calibrated in the temperature range that is being used. Source: 30 years of analytical chemistry and a lifetime of common sense.

    For now. I know you are not in CA, but this is all the rage lately: https://nationalpost.com/life/food/the-hidden-cost-of-almond-milk-exploited-and-disrespected-bees-are-dying-by-the-billions So, I think that we all are going to be moving on to oatmilk in CA.

    Yes, actually I have worked at Tarbucks. I worked there for almost a year. I gave notice and took a job elsewhere making $30 an hour. Follow along. We have lots of different ethnic groups in CA. You won't find a more liberal state in the USA. I think that we have surpassed OR and WA in...

    We put in one pump of peppermint. We never charged for one pump of any syrup.

    I am actually allergic to juniper oils. What are the odds? I never even really think about it because why would anyone eat it? It's stinky. No issues with gin though. :)

    Archived New market TL...help meeeee

    This is generally done at a different store too. A full 1-2 weeks of training for a TL and less than 4 hours for a TM (but is should be 40 as well).

    Try to order it yourself on your app. You can find your answer right there. (Xanatos is correct though. It is an extra charge.)

    Been going on for months in CA. So, after going through this song and dance about 100 times (no lie) what the TM's do is to just stare them down and say, "Not today. Not later. Not ever." Or of course, there is the simple hit a key numerous times and say it is not working today, sorry. Funny...

    Makes sense, and I don't think that it happened. How could you be the TL and not know where your cert is when the Dept of Health (not steritech) is there???? No minors should be scheduled after 9 PM in CA, yet, a 17 year old was scheduled to close and work until 11 PM at the same store. So...

    As they should be. I am sure that this TL never took the test.

    No joke. I asked if there was a guide or if it was all just hearsay. Not a single ETL or the SBX-TL had any sort of reference guide for the inspection. I KNEW that it had to exist. I think that the new SBX-TL couldn't find the "manager" food handler card for the health inspector because they...

    Thanks for the info. I was only concerned about the distance from store A to store B. Not the distance from home to store A.

    Since when are labor laws and wages subject to approval? Isn't it a yes or no issue?

    Can you do that if you were assigned to (agreed to) work at a different store to help out? A team member (barista) was told that they could not do that by the SBX-TL, no less. I think that they are supposed to do a punch correction for drive time at least?

    hahahahahaha So when they only schedule one person for happy hour and nobody comes for back-up, this is wrong? I have lost track of the number of times this has happened. It's every week pretty much.

    They had the fruit for awhile. Then, they were out of the infusions. It has to be the worst run store in the system.

    That's a great list. My store was out of all of all of those last week, but also add: Caramel sauce, lids, black tea and dragon fruit. Yep. There's no ordering system whatsoever. It baffles me.

    Yetive helped me pull the numbers last year. The only reason that they weren't in the hole was that I and another TM took charge of reducing product waste. We cut it back (sandwiches and pastries) by at least 75%. We also increased the grab and go by a huge margin. Having the product up...
