>The coffee chain staff member went above and beyond to try and help the 18-year-old in need as pointed out in a viral Tweet in January 2023. X user James Herring, @itsjamesherring, shared a picture of the coffee cup that had the message scrawled on it.
>Trying to keep drama to a minimum, the Starbucks barista used a hot chocolate cup someone had forgotten to pick up and wrote the note: "Are you ok? Do you want us to intervene?"
>X user James posted alongside the photo: "Kudos to the Starbucks' barista who checked in on a teenage girl by writing a discreet message on her cup.
>Others on X were quick to praise the barista for her efforts to help the teen, with one writing: "Deserves employee of the year award." Another added: "All credit to the staff. What a dreadful state this country is now in".
>"She was holding the cup and knew that I would love that someone did that for her," the mum told the outlet in 2022. "It made me feel so grateful that the Starbucks employees were watching out for her.
>"As a mom, that is my worst fear that something would happen to my child and nobody would be there to help."
