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.
Yes.
The iced green tea latte has the matcha powder, more milk and simple syrup and the frappucino adds ice and an additional syrup.
I applied online and the store I selected had an opening for the night shift. The more flexible you are with your time, the easier it is to get hired. And usually when a manager says they're not hiring, they really aren't hiring. We only hired three times in the year that I was at my store (including me).
As a side note, my manager really disliked when people came into the store to follow up on their applications--this is personal though depending on the store and the store manager.
The minimum age is dependent on your states' work laws. The likelihood of a 15 or 16 year old being hired is probably pretty slim since you don't have a lot of prior work experience. Almost everyone I worked with was in university or university aged (or older).
It's easy to pour out the extra that you don't want into the trash can. We get more complaints if a cup is NOT filled all the way than if it is too full... it's easier for the customer to pour some out than it is to add more for a customer that wants it filled all the way. Although typically, saying "with room" tends to work pretty well.

Are there social cliques (like "cool kids") in old folks homes?
I think for Starbucks you are overthinking it. Really most Starbucks locations hire for fit and availability, and I doubt they'd reject you over asking about benefits.
It depends on the store manager. For my store it was about 10 hours (a very senior person who had been with the company 20 years) but my guess is that most managers were prefer to invest their time and money in someone who is available around 15-20 hours.
They are done weekly.
