4. is this a yes or no question or am i supposed to choose one?

do you drink alot of tea?
do you get free tea for working there?

I drink lots. And yea, you're encouraged to drink tea during your shift so you can become acquainted with them, you get unlimited free hot or cold tea during your shift, but are limited to 1 matcha and latte a shift. Purchases are 50% off

●what is a matcha, what is a latte?
●so they don't let you bring any tea home, they just give you 50% off purchases?
●how much do you make per hour and would you generally say you enjoy the job
●is the store usually busy or usually not so busy? or does it depend on the day

I wanna work at my local location whay tips do you have to get hired as a sales associate

1.a. matcha is a type of green tea that is grown under cover and ground finely by hand. Growing it undercover gives it a higher chlorophyll content which gives a nice grassy taste, as well as a higher l-theanine content, which counteracts the caffeine to give you a more relaxed stimulation. It's fairly expensive, which is why we only get one.

1.b. Our lattes are pretty much half tea and half steamed milk. because you use less water to steep the tea to make room for the milk, we actually use four times the amount of loose tea in a latte than we do in a normal cup, so the flavour isn't lost in the milk.

2. We don't get free tea to take home, just the 50% off, but I'm more than happy with that because of all the free tea I get at work.

3. As of Jan 2018, pay is getting raised to $14.25 CAD to stay competitive with the minimum wage increase here in Ontario.

4. It's really busy from around 12-5, then it dies down a bit

It might be tough right now because most locations would have hired seasonal associates, so if they need any extra help, they'd just keep those guys a bit longer.

But you really want to push that you like to tailor everything to the individual customer and that you are dedicated to learning as much as you can about all the teas so you can help each customer decide on what's right for them.

1. WTF is DavidsTea?
2. How much for a glass of sweet tea?
3. Who's your favorite porn star?
4. What's your favorite kind of porn?
5. What's your favorite cola beverage?

whats ur fav tea

you're probably right on the seasonal thing but my location is in a pretty small area compared to others so idk
Thinking of applying right after new years and if I get the job keep it through my winter semester, should I tell them I want to be hired for a long time?

interesting
the only question you left unanswered was if you enjoy the job or not
if you have time, let me know and then i'll be heading off
wish you the best with everything tea user

1. We sell loose leaf tea. Lots of different blends and straight teas. Also tea accessories.

2. We do make cups of tea as well, it's around $3

3. I like Abella Anderson

4. Facefuck

5. Either Coca-Cola or Vanilla Coke

Sweet Ginger Heat is one of my favourites we have. It's a green tea with ginger, peppercorns, licorice root, and some others I can't remember.

I don't know if it's my total favourite, there are too many to decide. It's probably my favourite green tea blend though

I do enjoy it :) It's probably my favourite job I've had so far :) Have a nice night user

Do you work at the davids tea on Michigan Ave in the loop?

I don't think it needs to be mentioned, as any position they would offer after christmas would be consistent. Where are you located?

Nope, downtown toronto

...

...

Why does the strawberry rhubarb tea taste like sour assholes and when will you stop tricking people into buying it?

It's one of my least favourite teas and I have never recommended it to anyone. Some people love it and I just don't get it

Excellent, what about the walnut tea? Why does it taste like ghost cum?

Which walnut tea? Orange walnut scone? Toasted walnut?

Orange

I work at Starbucks. Fight me TeaFag.

That's one of our christmas teas, not one of my favourite holiday teas, but I don't hate it like I hate the strawberry rhubarb one. People do seem to like it though, I've used it for samples and have got many positive reactions. Sleigh Ride is my favourite of the christmas teas.

I work across from a starbucks, it gets strange when we both go out to sample at the same time

Starbucks for cucks
DaveTea for red-pilled Gen Z

Why does everything in the cheese and fruit tray taste like shit?

I make sure to sample our teas when i see a Davids girl doing samples outside.

If i where to come into your store and completely ignore you until I decide to purchase something would you dwell on that for months on end and remember my face?

You guys always get many more people coming to try the samples than we do, to be honest

Do you ever get the annoying downtown toronto hipsters showing up and telling you why certain teas are better than other teas?

I probably wouldn't even notice that you ignored me. I would say hello, you wouldn't respond, and I'd probably just think you didn't hear and carry on with other guests.

I assume that real hipsters probably don't shop here, it seems a bit normie. I find people with english accents seem to be the most knowledgeable, they know the origin of most of the straight teas

God dam your good.
What if I came in to return a box of tea bags with only one bag left saying I didn't like it. Full refund?

Do you at least get hit on a lot?

No refunds on food items is a general retail rule. If you were annoying about it, I would completely refuse, if you were cool or funny about it, I'd probably make you a free cup of tea.

What if i was super cool, not funny at all and said I made the missing bags all at once for a party and my guests hated it(lie)

I've only been working there 6 weeks or so, but I can't remember being overtly hit on.

it just depends if i like you or not, if you're a cool likeable guy, I'd probably let you pick a hot tea for me to make, but I wouldn't give a free pack of tea bags.

I have hypnotic eyes and years of sales experience, without raising my voice I will break you down until your inner being quivers at the thought of the possibilities of my ultimate retaliation. I have done this before and I will do it again DavidsTea so help me god

UofT? Ryerson? Ocad? No life prospects?

Checked the online store, the teas are shit. Cheapest chinese teas flavored with garbage.

>Cheapest chinese teas flavored with garbage.
is this true???

nah their teas are decent.

consuming tae is a trend of the past.
Your day must be boring with an empty store.

come down to yonge station and try me

Planning on going to Humber, not in school currently

We source our teas from many countries. You can probably expect a lower grade of tea in our blends, because it isn't just the tea that is supposed to shine through. A lot of our straight teas are pretty good quality though

Business is doing very well, we've been beating last year's sales

Vaudreuil in Quebec lol

Whens your next shift?

Also, why do girls working there spend 30 min telling me about their fav teas and having me smell literally every fucking tea in the store, and then don't actually try and sell me anything? Are you guys trained to do that?

ok well it's not doing good where I live.

I'm working on wednesday. Part of the training is to bring down lots of teas to smell so the customer can narrow down the choice. They probably just like talking about tea a lot, we're not on commission so there's no pressure to sell anything, we just show you stuff we think you might like and you can decide what to do with that.

Where is that?

Okay, nvm, I'm not familiar with that store at all

You seem nice. Are you single? If so, can I bring a single friend (attractive and sweet asian girl) to get tea advice and your number if you're into her?

I'm not single, but I'd love to meet one of your friends :)

maybe we will drop by and say hi once! If someone says "heard about these on Sup Forums" that's us. thanks for all your intimate david's tea knowledge!

you know the location im talking about right? i'm in next wednesday evening if you wanna drop by :)

...

i don't know what that means but i hope i see you and your attractive asian friend! around how old are you guys
