Leanne
got a job with a Cruise Line, and Soo came back to Seattle early,
only so she could pack and MOVE BACK to Korea.
UPDATE:
I quit Starbucks in May, shortly after I was in the newspaper for
that Best Barista thing.
With school completed, it's time to get some clients and work on
websites.
I am sad to go, but enjoying sleep (I woke up at 3:30 a.m. to open).
I miss my homies. Some of them miss me. |

Happy Anniversary to our Starbucks store!
Two Years!
We had dinner at Romio's on Greenwood, then headed to Leilani
Lanes to sit in the bar and listen to karaoke.
Arnold and Stephanie joined up with us, and I called Sean and told
him to come down too.
Our store's anniversary was actually last October, but it took us
this long to get organized and find a night when we could all get
together. |

Rach
& I |
(my rack) Mole,
Kidd, Heidi, Rachel, Amber, Erica |
Yeah,
that's my rack. I was sitting too close to the girls to get a good
picture of them, so I had Chris take the picture (he was sitting
across from me). I said "Did you get my boobs in there?"
And he looked at the camera and laughed and said "Yeah! I did!" |

We
got a new manager, Heather. Chris went on to greener pastures (get
it?) at Starbucks corporate. We took this picture for him as a going
away gift. Soo couldn't make it because she's in Korea for 7 weeks.
(Rachel is also not pictured.)
I'm only at Starbucks on Tuesdays and Thursdays now, and I miss
it.
And I miss working with Truly. She laughed at everything.
Below are some pictures of my cops, who always give me a hard time,
and I give it right back to them. |
CONGRATULATIONS Truly! You're edjamacated now! A
Bachelor's Debris!

The girls decorated
the store with streamers, balloons, and photocopied enlarged pictures
of our cops for Erika's birthday. She was thrilled.
The two in back have left us - Tera and Cassondra.
In front are Robin, Chris, Heidi, and Nicole.
Heidi cut off a foot of her hair and donated it. It's still long!
Robin's car got hit Sunday when someone tried to reverse out of
the drive-thru, got caught on the curb, and floored it right into
her car. It's such a bizarre story, I'll have to convince Robin
to type it out for us.

Happy Anniversary

Starbucks store!
In
one year we've memorized hundreds of names, pet's names, drink
orders, and price totals.

Suzanne
is accounted for - she was sick.
Ann gave us a store review and we did pretty well.
We finally got the glass replaced in the front of the store - it only
took three weeks. Now we can begin the repairs on the inside.
James's birthday is October 21 - the same day Soo is due.
That is all.
~Oct. 09
The
missing regulars: Trevor is accounted for. Still missing: Suzanne (grande
vanilla soy latte) and Jon (triple grande vanilla latte and a [various]
cookie).
I remembered a couple others this morning, but it was like 5 a.m. and
I am not the same person right now, so I'm satisfied with what I have
remembered.
Don't regulars realize that
they come to the same place, and get the same thing, at
the same time, every day, and they think they can just stop
showing up, and we won't worry? What's wrong with these people?!?
Customers: if you are going to take a vacation,
you need to let your Starbucks crew know. Nothing formal or written
required (hmmm..... but that's an idea, a "Regular Customer Vacation
Form" with Name, Drink, and Vacation Dates). And for Chrissakes,
if you move, let them know! Shame on all of you who have deserted
your Starbucks Crew-of-the-Past! Call them. [Make sure you
call at the time you used to go there, or they'll have no idea who you
are.] Look them up in the phone book and say: "Yeah, Hi,
I'm the guy at 7:12 a.m? Tall-nonfat-no foam-chai? Yeah! Hi! Well, I moved/got
a new job, so I go to another store now, and I just wanted to let you
know that it's not personal, and I'm okay."
Is it too much to ask? Sheesh!
~Oct. 03
We got more
Anniversary Blend in! Woo hoo!
Has anyone seen Trevor (iced venti americano no water)? Did I stalk him
too far? Or how `bout the triple-grande extra-hot no-foam breve latte
guy? .... Okay, he can stay away. Or Jessica (iced single-venti
caramel macchiato) in the Audi? Or Lisa's Mike (iced grande americano)?
What other regulars have been missing lately?

A
car drove into our store.

SO FUNNY!
I thought having a car drive into the store would create some interesting
conversation with clientele. Alas:
What happened to your store? Someone drove into it.
He really wanted coffee, huh? HAHAHA
He made a new drive-thru, huh? HAHAHA
He made it a drive-in instead of a drive-thru! HAHAHA
Didn't he know the drive thru was over there? HAHAHA
Ninety seven
*&%@$$# times I had to laugh.
Michelle is
leaving us to go work for Headsprout.
It's perfect for her!
We also welcome Jennifer and Amy! We can't really call them
fresh meat since they're both transfers.....

Chris Muller
is back!
(We're impersonating her dog - don't ask....)

Today
was Thomas' birthday and we didn't even remember until he was almost off
(he worked all day!) He's 26. It's been determined that we are all Virgos
or Libras. There were too many Virgo birthdays so we need to compile them
into a birthday party for everyone.

Starbucks
Snow Line: 206-318-7669 - so far it says we are open as usual tomorrow.
We closed
today around noon. All Starbucks stores did. It's the first time I've
ever "closed."
It was so weird hearing bits & pieces on radios in the drive-thru.
The first person to tell us anything was Robert (quad venti not-too-hot
mocha) at 6 a.m. so we were informed pretty dang early. It was also
strange telling some regulars to put on their radio because they didn't
know yet.
Our Truly is stuck,
relatively speaking. She works at 5 a.m. tomorrow but I believe James
is covering for her. She & her man Chris were stuck in San Francisco.
Last I heard they actually got a hold of a rental car. Truly, please
check
in with us.
Also looks like
Chris had to cancel his trip to Italy which is terrible - I guess a
bunch of his family was going. Also, Heidi and Kirsten were scheduled
to fly to Iowa tomorrow. I doubt it will happen.... at least not tomorrow
as scheduled.

Hi
Y'all here's the page so far.
We can list "events" (like Michelle's stuff), parties, birthdays
& what-not here.
Truly, isn't your birthday Sept. 13th? Any other important dates coming
up?
I'm still working on Soo's Shower -sorry I don't have more details yet.
Just keep Saturday Sept. 29th at 1:00 pm free.
From what I remember,
Michelle's volunteer program is having it's first meeting at the Holman
Road Starbucks at 9 am this Thursday. Speaking of Starbucks Literacy
stuff, I think we should all bring in a children's book to put in the
donation basket since it's empty. Even from a thrift store. We could
get it started this weekend.....
Chris was supposed
to work today but I didn't see him - maybe he'll be in tomorrow before
he takes off.
Chris Muller are
you gonna write to any of us this summer? When do you come back? And
what will your schedule be like? Lisa Relth is back and she's dating
Iced Grande Americano. Ahhhh Starbucks love.
And Hello to Shelley...
please let us know how you're doing and I can post it to this page.
We all miss you!
Best wishes to LeAnne moving to Korea and Amber leaving us for college...........
Over and out.
