Tumbler or Cup ? ... ;)


Share Some pictures of my LOVELY Tumbler which i bought from my Store "FINALLY " =D ... a " Cup " look Tumbler !? look at photo below that I've captured with my phone :) .... i love this tumbler very much ~ though some of the peoples might said " a stupid design " which no different with other " CUPS " in Starbucks ... as for me XD its a very cute + special design =) ...the first time i saw this cup was the time I'm training in Cameron Highland, a New partner " Ken " who had the same class with me ... that time I'm curious with the cup which he was holding on... i was like ... hmm why the cup looks so different .... so then i try to hold the cup with my hand... but something surprised me was the cup was " HARD " @_@ not the softy kind of Cup that served to the customer.... so then i take a look properly this time and then i only notice that !! that was a " TUMBLER " .... for the moment i looked at it ... I've already Fall on this Tumbler ... but unfortunately ... its out of stock in Cameron Branch for that time... but i kept looking for this tumbler after i back to Ipoh, even i asked my friend to look for me in KL Branch as well ... but they couldn't find any of it... and finally ~ few days ago while our store doing Re-stock ... i heard they have a new Tumbler ... and i immediately check out in BOH !! and i were so happy to see the TUMBLER that i want is finally came to our store !! but just only 4 are available .... without hesitating ... i immediately booked down 2 of it from manager Carene ... actually i want 4 of it ... cause cousin birthday another 1 to give my friend which i promised to get for her .... but Manager not allowed me to get 4 ... so only can get 2 after all ... so ~ LOOK AT THE PICTURE below =D ... i like it very much =D Love This Tumbler :) ...



Closer View =)


With the Markup boxes ... Exactly the same with the S'bux Cup ...


Spinning Lid to lock... so your drink wont float out when you keep inside the bag ...


Shiny Thick Plastic !! not the Softy Cup Plastic !

P/S : If u Purchase drinks in Starbucks with " TUMBLER " you'll get RM2 off !! so this the tumbler ! as well as the CUP !! Enjoy ^^ ...

Life + Starbucks =)

It's 6.30am now.... cant fall to sleep after i awake from my dreamland =s ... so then finally make up my mind to write up my blog XD ... cause its been almost 1 month ++ never update my blog and plus didn't visit some of my fav blogger's blog...

So what I'm doing for the whole month lately ? XD ... i couldn't write out all here ... cause that's a lot for me to put here XD if i really do so @_@ this entry might full of WORDS again XD ....

It's been 1 month ++ I've working in Starbucks, yet that's also one of the reason why i didn't post up my blog as well ... after I've work... I'm become slothful =s ... not only didn't update my blog but also didn't go work out in Gym lately =s i paid for the Gym Fees but attended myself just 4 days for the whole month XD ... totally wasted =( .... still in thinking whether i should continue or not though ... because of working schedule, so I have to sacrifice my time for it, sometimes friend who ask me out for tea at night as well, therefore... not much time left for me to do my stuff~ sigh ... Nevertheless .... i still love my job very well =)

There's so many peoples ask me about my job, whether is a good place to work / fun or not .... the answer / feedback from me would be definitely a big " YES " XD ... i enjoy very much on working in Starbucks ... yet i love all my partners/Manager/Shift Supervisor =) i get to learn a lot of things from here ... a lot peoples thought that a Barista is a job which nothing different with a waiter job ?? ... but well ... the answer would be totally wrong if u think like this XD ... Barista is a Multi-tasking job, which not just serve peoples with drinks, yet we also take the roll to communicate with our Customer, get the opportunity to learn / taste the World Best Coffee Bean / Coffee Knowledge, and might as well can learn the so call " Legendary Service " from Starbucks. Of course there's much more I've learnt other than the above I've mentioned =) ... That's why i always felt Lucky to be one of the member in Starbucks =)

So What happen for this month was aaa ... yea of course for a newbie ... must have a lot of " MISTAKE " 1 lor XD ... last time I've mentioned that i burn a croissant... but now ... not just a croissant anymore hahaha... Some common mistake from me " wrong drinks " , " wrong ingredient for the drinks " , " key in the wrong items for the Counter Machine " POS " , " Wrong call up drinks "..... those are the common mistake i always did, but of course now ... getting better =) trouble is getting less ... but still sometimes there's still a possibility I'll do something wrong again ? who knows ? haha... but yea human being is like that ... learn from the mistake =) also ... have to say Thanks again for Starbucks ... cause Starbucks culture ... they will not scold / blame their partners =) that's one of the Pros to work in Starbucks as well XD cause u can get to learn things without Stress like others Restaurant does ... Manager scold their staff in front of Customers... this will never happen in Starbucks for sure =) That's why you can really enjoy working in Starbucks.

Lastly, since so many peoples asked me about " Where's my uniform " Pict ... so I'm gonna post up here =) ... Thx " Jill " ex-partner who work in Starbucks before took the photo for me =)... glad to meet you & "Asrul" the supervisor in taiping branch XD ...
