I still don't understand why people tip Barristas for making coffee? I guess to be a nice guy? Is this really an important issue to you? |

Only if she does the wiggle jiggle dance on my lap. Then I'll feed quarters into the slot.

It's too late.... I'm addicted! I think they've been putting heroin in my coffee or something. I JUST CAN'T STOP! It all started with one shot of esspresso and now I'm up to a four shot a day habbit. I just can't get this monkey off my back!
And tipping to be nice just doesn't cut it. And yes, I do think it is a "big deal", because it just sounds stupid to pay somebody a dollar for putting a cup under a spicket and moving a lever. Do you also give money away to strangers who enter an elevator with you and push the button for you? As much money a Starbucks is making, I just think it should be their responsability to pay their employees. |

Why tip anyone? There is an old-fashioned solution to this. My grandad showed me this years ago. This solution is cheap and convenient; it's called a thermos.

This solution is cheap and convenient; it's called a thermos. This guy from Arkansas gets a job on a construction crew. His first day at work and they break for lunch. He sees a guy pouring some coffee. "Hey, what is that?", says the Arkansawyer. "It's a Thermos.", says the co-worker. "What's that?" "Well, it keeps hot things hot and cold things cold." "Where can you get one?" "Any hardware store or Wal-Mart." The Arkansawyer shows up with his very own Thermos the next day. The co-worker says, "Hey, you got a Thermos! What'd you put in it?" "Two popsicles and a cup of coffee." The scene: a sex shop. The manager goes out to run an errand and leaves his assistant in charge. A white woman walks in. "How much for the white dildo?" "Five dollars." A black woman walks in. "How much for the black dildo?" "Five dollars." A woman from Arkansas walks in. "How much for the plaid dildo?" "Twenty-five bucks." The manager returns and asks, "Well, how'd it go?" "I sold two dildoes and some gal from Arkansas bought your Thermos for twenty-five bucks." |

Quoted: ok, im a retard...wtf is a barrista? Like a soda jerk, but with coffee. But "java jerk" would get them confused with web programmers, so they just call them barristas because that's Arabican for "java jerk." Retard. [:D] [size=1](just kidding)[/size=1] OK, I made that up. It's the person that makes your cup of coffee. Now where's my medication? |

The only thing that scares starbucks more than columbian droughts, is the armed home owner with an espresso maker! Grind your coffee at the store, then keep it in tupperware in the fridge so it'll stay fresh.

You buy 4 cups of coffee per day at $3.00 a pop and you're bitching about leaving someone some change?
Best bet is to buy your own machine and grind your own beans or just quit drinking it... I would leave a buck or two if she was cute and had big boobies though....Boobies RULE! |

No, AZ Redneck.... that would be four shots of espresso in one cup of coffee at $2.60 for the cup. But I guess I couldn't expect someone who's not from Seattle to understand the fine art of espresso... LOL!

No, I guess I don't understand..Probably because I don't drink that crap... I like my coffee and I drink it black, but I can't drink that stuff...
Anyway, if it is an art as you say, why not tip the artist to show your appreciation for their work of art? |

If you think there uderpaid why dont you ask them how much they make and see if that solves your tippong issue. I ussualy dont tip for much of anything call me an ass. I have a friend who works at a starbucks inside of a safeway he makes $11 an hour. tho he is the manager of the starbucks stand and has 2 people under him. He is also a union safeway employee tho so that could explain it

I just could never see what all the fuss is about Starbucks coffee. It somehow tases scalded or burnt to me. But I just drink plain black coffee with none of that sissy stuff in it to mask the real taste [BD] You either like coffee or you don't. |

Starbucks does not sell Coffee Flavored Coffee; I agree that what they do sell tastes crappy, like a pot that has been sitting on the warmer all day long, then cut with water - yech!

LOL! ahhh...so you think Seattle Starbucks is different from AZ Starbucks? guess I cant expect anyone who pays 3.00 for a cup of coffee to know anything. LOL [stick] seriously though, id buy one of those new fangled Mr Coffee espresso machines and a thermos. |
