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.
All Starbucks partners (employees) start out as baristas unless you have extensive prior experience which a 16 year old is unlikely to have.
A 16 year old would probably be paid slightly above (like .35) the state or federal minimum wage wherever that person lived. This can be increased at performance review time.
Customer experience can be gained many ways, I recommend Google. It can be jobs, either paid or volunteer, as well as any community experience you may have.
As for advice, there are suggestions further up in this thread. It will depend on what the store manager of the particular store you are looking for wants. My manager interviewed people based off availability, not anything particularly outstanding in their application. The interview depends as well.

Yes.
The iced green tea latte has the matcha powder, more milk and simple syrup and the frappucino adds ice and an additional syrup.
Share Answer: 
To my knowledge, no. You as a customer are always free to leave and spend your money elsewhere.
Starbucks corporate dictates rules like that and you can direct the suggestion to them through the Customer Service page: customerservice.starbucks.com/app/contact/ask/

I think individual stores can still have the cool, hip vibe. As far as Starbucks as a corporate entity, I do not know.
