I AM A STARBUCKS BARISTA!

Can I take your order? :p


I bet you guys a bit surprised why suddenly I made up my mind to work as barista at Starbucks right? Well, actually it's my own decision and some other reasons why suddenly I want to work. To gain experiences(of course!), to solve my financial problems, to prove someone I'm not a spoil brat little girl in family and if I'd listed I think it's not enough though. Hihi :D so let's roll people.


First stage : Interview

Stroll myself with le girlfriends at Mines Shopping Centre located at Seri Kembangan. Then, I saw Starbucks Coffee kiosk. I filled up the application form and passed up to the staff. Actually I didn't put too much hope to get this job. But then after 2 weeks later, I got a voice mail (because I woke up late that day hahahahaha!) and he said he's from Starbucks The Mines and asked for call-back. Then I called back the store and the one speaking is the store manager who asked me to come for an interview. So I told him I'm only free on Thursday since I didn't have classes. So accompanied by Ms. Safrina, my vah-vah-voom favorite lecturer cum my English advisor for my FYP group I went through the interview. I'm still not sure whether i can get this job or not but you guess what? I MADE IT! I MADE IT! I MADE IT!


Second stage : First Impression



excitedness~

Blame me for the excitedness. Can you bear with me because I'm too 'gedik' and 'teruja' with this thing. You know I really want to become a Starbucks partner because it's a new thing for me. I don't like coffee  like AT ALL. I wanna try this new thing I told myself. Meet my new partners, Sarah, Ain, Vincent, Za, Syahid, and Shark. Our store's management team, Mel, Adli, and Azman. Ops did I mentioned before why we called ourselves as 'PARTNER' not 'STAFF' OR WHATSOEVER you called it? In Starbucks, we called ourselves as partner because we want to create a family bonding which is friendly and lovely environment. Wah gittew kauuu. So my first impression is with Azman also the store manager. The first thing I had to do is GREASE TRAP! The cuci-cuci paip yang penuh dengan wasted whipped cream, chocolates chip, milk things! Euww sikit ah nasib baik Starbucks only have wasted milk, chocs chip, chocs and dairy thingy in their grease trap. Sarah, a gorgeous barista looks like Neelofa taught me how to make FRAPPUCINO AND HOT DRINKS! I struggled for like 3 weeks to master. And it's a must for every baristas to handle Point of Sales (POS) means you'll be handling with cash. 


I'd prefer pictures do the talking. 



Also working in here. :)
