Jeudi 28 Janvier
Posted in: Beverage,Thought,Work,sbux by LeeChien on January 28, 2010
Shift work is somehow tiring.
Tiring of opening shift.
As i hafta spend about an hour or more to get through the congested traffic to reach store.
And another hour to get through the slightly less congested traffic to reach home.
Closing shift is still fine.
As i don’t needa stuck in the traffic for so long and i can get enough sleep as well.
Though more works to do during closing.
But i likey.
Problematic.
Unpunctual.
Lazy.
Stubborn.
Opinionated.
Headache and dislike partners with the ‘symptoms’ listed.
What i can do is only practicing the what-what-why, what-what-why and verbal warning.
Lastly, let store manager to handle.
How tiring..
Why can’t people carry, improve themselves and be initiative?!
But some partners do let me relax and release.
Even a few minutes only.

Even just a cup of 3oz green tea latte topped with whipped cream.
It could be a short enjoyment as well.
I need real rest.
Awaiting for next month..
15 days to go, yay!!!
This will be the longest holidays i’ll be taking since i started working here.
Starbucks First Drive-Thru in Malaysia
Posted in: Beverage,sbux by LeeChien on December 09, 2009
Finally, we’ve got it as well.
Starbucks has the first drive-thru in Malaysia.
It’s located at Setia Tropika Johor.
Never been there yet.
But i will.
One day.
Some of the photos got from the web.

Seems like the Maybank signage is much bigger and obvious than Starbucks.

Drive-thru is at the side of the buidling.

Line partner (with headset, don’t play play!)
Awaiting the next one in KL.
Sbux, Anyone?
Posted in: Beverage,Promotion,sbux by LeeChien on October 17, 2009
Discovered these Sbux products in the market.
Not available Sbux stores (yet?).
Pricey as well..

Java Chip Frappuccino Ice Cream
:] :] :] :]
Outing the day before Mooncake Festival.
Went Tanjung Harapan, followed by Darul Salam.
Won this so called Super Barista Award.
And my prize is a Kuala Lumpur Tumbler from Sbux.
Never seen anyone using this tumbler before, serious.
Anyone want it?
Beat for it, ha…
Except last year, it’s been many years that my Mooncake Festivals were without families.
Mooncake i had for this year:-
Ipoh’s brand of mooncake, and it’s from a customer.
I don’t know who, but he/she left it.
Many days already and partners asked me to take back.
Quite nice though.
But just too sweet.
