Is it hard working as a Baristas?

so there is this tea place called Teavana that's hiring for baristas and im thinking about applying but like do you have to memorize all the ingredients that go into the drink? What happens if you forget what goes in the drink? Is it a hard job or is it something easy to pick up on?

    No lie, at first it`s hard.

    You do need to memorize what goes in a drink, but everywhere I`ve worked there were cheat sheets on the walls, inside the fridges or on cupboards. After making a drink so many times though, it becomes second nature.

    You also need to learn to not stress fast and work quickly, efficiently and under pressure. It definitely makes time go by fast and its good experience

    It depends. I lived in Seattle for a verrrrrry long time and I was a barista. I had to memorize one or two categories on the menu, and someone else would do the other half. But there are directions everywhere so do not worry.

    But I also lived in the South and it was reallllllly slow and the baristas took foeva.

    it's not that hard.. once you get into the routine everything will be easy. but it can be tricky at first but you should be fine.
