After working all day in a cubicle, I'd spend my nights as your friendly, neighborhood Starbucks barista! I remembered your name, made each drink exactly to your specifications and did it all with a bright smile. I've served celebrities, worked both drive thru & cafe stores, worked every holiday and have kept the customers from knowing about all the craziness that goes on behind the scenes... until now. Ask me anything.
I'm not aware of any aside from employment laws on age. Starbucks will train you in everything you need to know, but a good attitude and customer service experience won't hurt.

Frappucinos are the most annoying drink to make, they're time consuming with a lot of steps and waiting. But it's also part of the job... if a person doesn't want to make frappucinos they shouldn't work at Starbucks.

Nope, not that will significantly reduce your calories. In order to do so you will have to sacrifice something. A good place to start is a smaller cup if you want the exact same taste. Otherwise, for a minor effect cut the number of syrup pumps by 1.
Switching to sugar free won't make a difference in calories and switching to fat free milk will definitely mess with taste.

There are no franchises in Starbucks, they are all owned by corporate. The stores in grocery stores and airports are operated by a third party.
Profit depends greatly on the stores location and hours. My store made five times the daily/weekly profit than the store a quarter mile down the road. We were also open 21 hours a day attracting mall clientel. The other store was open 12 hours a day attracting condo residents. Different target audience, different profit.

I actually never had to use it and purposefully got only the most basic, but let's be honest, in today's world of absurdly high healthcare costs any coverage is better than no coverage at all.

It is a standard two week training that all employees are required to undergo. You will be trained on the bar and on the cash register, as well as other tasks required of a Starbucks partner in a store.
Share Answer: 
Yes. There is a program to train new employees and you will be trained on everything you need to know.
