I guess they want them to start spelling people’s names correctly.
Is this a 3rd party site? Every barista job on Starbucks’ actual site says no experience or education required, so I’m pretty sure what’s more infuriating is how god awful pretty much every job site has become.
Indeed app.
Indeed has been trash for years, so that tracks. That’s why I’ve only ever used it to figure out who (maybe) has jobs open and then apply directly - they have so much bad information.
What app is better? I’ve had bad luck with LinkedIn, Glassdoor and Ziprecruiter?
LinkedIn to find the job. Then straight to the company website to apply.
None like they said you apply directly on their site. It sucks it seems they all use Work Day as a platform but you can’t share logins and data you entered between different applications.
Most of the indeed postings link to the employers site or workday anyway.
That’s the best part - they’re all bad! I’m lucky I usually stick to government and most use governmentjobs.com, which isn’t perfect but it’s miles better. But when I’ve been looking for a second job or trying to see what’s available in the private sector, I have yet to find a site that isn’t trash.
Yeah Starbucks literally partnered with the Orion homeless youth shelter in Seattle to train teens to be baristas.
Due to instability during their upbringing, for some of these kids just being able to show up at a certain location at a certain time is a job skill they’re lacking. Yet there’s a little half-Starbucks on site where they can learn that and more.
Lol, back when I worked at Starbucks, I joked that one day this exact thing would happen. That the education industrial complex would require a bachelor’s degree for all jobs, as it would ensure debt and desperation in the vast majority of people who solely wish to survive.
I also claimed back then that we would all live to see the disastrous effects of climate change. No joke, people back then shook their heads and thought me nuts.
My next prediction: the majority of people who are parents today will wish they never made the decision to have kids in the next 20 years. Good luck everybody.
That’s not much of a prediction. I ask every woman I get to know if they regret having kids. If they could just go back, and not do it.
Some feel bad about saying yes. Some feel like they’re bad moms. Or bad people for wishing they never had kids.
Some happily say “fuck these kids! Ruined my life!”
Some think about it, and eventually say yes.
But so far, no one has said no.
And this is going back to the 90s.
What a weird incel-energy comment to make.
This is next level irony. A coffee shop requiring a gender studies degree.
The CHUDs would have a field day.
Bachelorx degree lol
I’d wager that the “not” symbol in front of it means it’s not required
No if I qualified it would say “bachelor’s degree” in green. I only have associates so when they want it, it is green and says matching qualifications. If I click on the orange button, it says you may not have all the qualifications.
On the indeed app you can filter by qualifications, so this doesn’t come up.
Ooh i see, my bad. This is indeed mildly infuriating.
It’s saying that it doesn’t match the job-seekers profile, ie seeker does not meet requirement
No that’s not how LinkedIn works. If a job lists specific qualification tags like that, it marks those tags with symbols and colors them red or green to indicate if your LinkedIn profile has those qualifications listed. Those can be education requirements, certifications, skills, etc. That tag shows that their profile doesn’t have a bachelor’s degree listed.
This can’t possibly be true, otherwise the college grads that work there do not understand basic English… I order a grande nitro cold brew, add a dash of sweet cream. What do they try to give me? A milk white beverage that is at least half sweet cream. WTF? I want coffee with a splash of cream, not cream with a splash of coffee… Doesn’t anyone like coffee flavored coffee anymore or is it all candy and sugar now? If they really are college grads then thank god they aren’t engineers or doctors.
They are just terrible at paying attention to what you order.
But… if OP’s assertion is true, how could they possibly obtain a degree in ANYTHING without paying attention? I mean, Mc Donalds drive through minimum wage non educated employees get my order right and these Starbucks “college grads” can’t figure it out? Well, I guess that’s why they work for Starbucks rather than their degree field?
Lol, I posted that comment on the description of my post as a joke because people always say their name is either misspelled or purposely misspelled to make you remember your experience. There are senior year students working at college Starbucks and they are terrible at remembering their customers’ orders while my wife with no GED, and almost a decade of food/barista service experience can remember all the college board members’ usual orders including repeat student customers.
paying attention to what you order.
Does not mean they don’t pay attention to anything. Much like you paying attention to baristas mistakes but only half reading the comment you’re replying to.
I’m sorry, what? I am actually asking you a sincere question. If I order a grande nitro cold brew, add a splash of sweet cream, what would you think I was ordering? No, really, I am truly asking you what beverage you would then hand me after I pay you. It has been my experience that I will get a cup of cream with a splash of coffee. Is that what you think I should receive from my order? Are my standards too high that I think a trained basista can provide me with my actual order? Should I just take what they give me, regardless of what I wanted, and just pay them because they “tried”?
I see you paid as much attention to my comment as the barista did to your order.
“… coffee flavoured coffee…” is a phrase I utter quite often - nice to see someone else uses it to.
