Like To Think Most People Are Decent

May 31, 2018 on Reddit

What percentage of Starbucks employees do you think view this as a "day off" and completely blow the training off as something they don't see a reason to care about?

Hopefully most of them: I like to think most people are decent, and don't hate because of ethnicity: they hate because customers suck. :P

What does Starbucks plan to do for their paying customers?

May 31, 2018 on Reddit

I am a Starbucks shareholder, and it pisses me off when I am there and see a line of ladies waiting for the bathroom $in the old days when we were separate$, and when I notified a barista of the issue, they find a guy that was passed out from shooting up heroin... The lunatics are running the asylum... I don't want to go there and sit next to an unwashed individual who reeks... And I feel we should have some rights as well... What does Starbucks plan to do for their paying customers?

> What does Starbucks plan to do for their paying customers? Provide them coffee while increasing company over head and turn over costs as the management weighs the organization down with new "bias training" modules and bathroom cleaning procedures that have resulted from a diversity of new bathroom messes that have erupted from welcome mat being layed out for homeless people at every Starbucks now. It's financial suicide, and too many people are mentally shoe-horned into being blinded to it by righteous indignation.

So how exactly are you supposed to remove unruly people/customers from the store now?

May 31, 2018 on Reddit

So how exactly are you supposed to remove unruly people/customers from the store now? Obviously the policy has been changed and you no longer have to make a purchase, but say a homeless black guy was in there asking patrons for money, did the training cover how you would handle this?

The training stated that people who are disrupting others can be asked to contain themselves (in the event of harassment or inappropriateness) and if they choose not to they will be asked to leave. We're not forced to put up with unreasonable people or people who are actually breaking the law.

Why does Starbucks pay their employees crappy?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

Why does Starbucks pay their employees crappy? I own a pizza shop and pay more than Starbucks. I pretty much hire their workers and all of them say they hated working there. I love how they want to train you on this stuff for minimum wage lol

Hows your health insurance? Basic plan at Starbucks is $20/month pretax for workers.

So homeless people can now stink up the bathroom and bathe in there without so much as a question?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

So homeless people can now stink up the bathroom and bathe in there without so much as a question? Thats weak... a $1.90 bagel/cc is the price of admission to a Starbucks toilet - and it was fine, least we used to think it was.

If you've never seen homeless people in starbucks before you just haven't been paying attention. This will change nothing.

Can a Starbucks employees start denying service to customers who actively say racists stuff?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

Can a Starbucks employees start denying service to customers who actively say racists stuff? I really hope so. It's very frustrating when some ignorant idiot ahead of me is tying up the line cause he's *** about "the Mexicans" to someone they know can't tell them to STFU.

You can deny service to anyone who is being disruptive or harrassing someone. I kicked a girl out once for calling another customer the n-word while they were in line. I've denied service to people for screaming at me or other employees or for name calling. *** that ***.

Probably The Coma, Because Then At Least...

This might not be for you but for the company doing the training but if 8000 stores were closed and these seminars were held in house (in your store) - did they have 8000 trainers available?

This might not be for you but for the company doing the training but if 8000 stores were closed and these seminars were held in house (in your store) - did they have 8000 trainers available? Or did your manager do the training?

Our manager did the training, guided by an iPad program

Do you get 'extra' pay if you speak a language other than the one spoken locally?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

Not really related to your training but I was in Boracay once, and a Filipina barista spoke fluent mandarin while taking the orders from a Chinese couple. I was very surprised. Do you get 'extra' pay if you speak a language other than the one spoken locally?

I've been tipped for speaking a foreign language to a foreign customer, but no you don't get a higher wage for it. Edit: German

How useful do you think this training will be 12 months from now with normal turnover?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

How useful do you think this training will be 12 months from now with normal turnover? How do you think this compares to the last time they closed all stores for training?

Starbucks is developing 12 MyTraining modules (mandatory, online training pamphlets/exercises for all employees) for this training program, which will then be added to the curriculum for incoming employees. I've yet to see those and I'm unsure how effective they'll be, but they definitely seem to be accounting for turnover. And I'm unfamiliar with the other training shutdown, sorry

Think The Company Did A Good Job

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

So, how was it?

I think the company did a good job with the program, and my manager did a good job setting everything up. It went really well and my coworkers seem to agree.

What is the general consensus of the employees at Starbucks?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

Its great that corporate Starbucks thinks this is a good idea however, if you are in a location with a lot of homelessness ie., any major city in America, this will present safety issues for the workers and customers. What is the general consensus of the employees at Starbucks?

My coworkers are somewhat divided. Most of us, especially the closing crew, already deal with a lot of homeless people every day. I don't think any of us are worried for our safety, as the homeless people who come to my store are typically harmless. The issue that some of us are worried about is the mess that some homeless people will leave in the bathrooms. We get an older lady who will try to wash her clothes in the bathroom sink, and another person who aims for the wall. We make it a point to clean up after these people, of course, but the mess they sometimes leave is incredibly unsanitary, and in some cases is such a hazard, that policy is to shut down the bathroom and call a professional sanitation team. The vast majority of homeless do not behave this way in our bathrooms, which is why we're kind of divided. There's the band that believes our new policy will just invite more people who try to do this. And then there's the band that suspects little-to-no change to our current problems. I'm in the latter camp, but I'll concede that while I don't think they'll worsen, I certainly think this limits our ability to *improve* our bathroom conditions.

Nothing Special

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

did you guys get any commemorative gifts / proof to show that you have went through the racial sensitivity training?

No, nothing special. We got to clock in so it was 4 hours of pay, but that's it.

What was the vibe of the room?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

What was the vibe of the room? Was it awkward?

The room seemed pretty comfortable. It was just our coworkers, managers, and some iPads, so we made ourselves at home. The manager also brought a ton of snacks and Dominos so we were in good condition.

What is one thing you think they couldve handled better at the meeting?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

What is one thing you think they couldve handled better at the meeting? Thank you for everything you do and thank you for this ama

To be honest, I entered with low expectations and left thinking they did a really good job. I'm not totally sure how much credit should just go to the company itself, or how much should go to my manager, who I think handled the meeting incredibly well. If I had to nitpick, I'd say I wished they had explored implicit associations a little further. If you've ever looked into implicit associations online, you'll probably have found something like [this](https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html), which is a test you take to see if it's more difficult for you to quickly associate "good" and "bad" adjectives with white faces or with black faces. This kind of test can make some people uncomfortable, which I imagine is one reason Starbucks omitted it from the program, but I would have like to see it. What we got instead was something like [this](http://s3.mirror.co.uk/click-the-colour-and-not-the-word/index.html), which is similar in concept but I think has a weaker effect.

What do you think about Starbucks new open door policy and that anyone can just come in and sit or use the restroom as they please?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

What do you think about Starbucks new open door policy and that anyone can just come in and sit or use the restroom as they please? It sounds like more trouble imo. Edit: the open door policy is apparently not new. The training is to set guidelines, etc. for employees to follow.

Ultimately, I don't think customers should worry about this new policy. Starbucks employees will still reserve the right to remove people who are disruptive or behaving inappropriately, and if it turns out that the policy is yielding low-satisfaction rates among paying customers, then the company will probably amend it. That being said, if a significant change does happen, it would be to our nighttime shifts which already attract a larger number of homeless people than the daytime shifts. And of course, the new policy could very well make our stores just all the more attractive to people who otherwise don't have the greatest source of shelter at night. It makes sense. I have some coworkers who worry about this, but I'm rather optimistic that the change will be negligible. I'm not opposed to changing my tune if I'm proven wrong, however.

How many more of these sessions will happen?

May 30, 2018 on Reddit

How many more of these sessions will happen? Or is this the only one? Also was it just watching a video, and a few questions and answers type of thing?

I think this was the only formal meeting we'll have, but the company will be adding related modules to our MyLearning page (an online training course where all employees learn the basics and such before actually going on the job). There were a lot of videos involved, yes, but they weren't exactly *training* videos where they tell you what to do or what to say. They were more like what you'd expect from a Vox video, where they provide information along with a message of some sort. We also received notebooks that contained prompts to answer, but they were more like open-ended, thought-provoking questions, rather than multiple-choice or short-answer questions with a right or wrong answer. For example, there's a page with the title "The first time you..." and then a series of statements to finish that prompt, like "...noticed your racial identity," "had a friend of a different race who regularly visited your home," etc. We also had group activities where we would discuss our answers to these prompts with each other.
