I just got hired at Starbucks a month ago, and am doing very well so far. I love my job, and I don’t mind the stress. However, during my interview, I was asked about my future plans. I mentioned that I planned on going to graduate school in the future, but wasn’t sure on when.

I very recently made the decision to accept an offer from a graduate school. It was a difficult decision, especially because it involves moving (I’ll be going to New York City). I have not told my manager yet. I don’t want to like upset her because I literally JUST got hired, but going to graduate school is something that I need to do to get my dream job one day. How should I bring this up to her? Also, are there any hopes to transferring to a location in New York City, so I can live on food other than ramen?

Thanks!

P.S. I don’t need to move until late August/early September
