Okay, so I’ve been working at Starbucks for a good while now, and there is another partner that works with me who got hired I want to say a month after me. So to give some contexts to my problem:

This partner and I got in one scuffle like 6 months ago because they felt I was being rude to them when essentially I told them “no” when they asked me to skip a bunch of other drinks to make theirs first. In that encounter, I had a talk with a shift and eventually my a about my attitude (even though I think I was justified) and that’s done. However, ever since the partner has been rude to me. Sometimes they ignore me entirely when I talk to them, sometimes they snap at me, or roll their eyes, or just make rude comments about me or my actions, or just are overly sarcastic in a rude tone, and overall they’re just kinda mean. I’ve been putting up with it for a while, and I’m just kinda sick of it at this point. I love my job so much, but this partner makes me dislike coming to work. I see their name on the schedule and I think “ugh”, when it should be like how I am with almost all my other partners like “yay I’m closing with [name]”

My concern is this tough: I’ve heard that they accepted another (part time) job, and I don’t know for sure. But if they have, and they’re is a chance they might leave, should I really bring it up.

I want to talk to someone (probably my Sm, since they are the only higher up I know and trust) but I don’t want to start unnecessary drama. I don’t like it, and neither does my Sm. I’m normally a quiet problem, and confrontation like this that involves me sorta scares me.

I know if it was someone else, I’d give objective advice, but I can’t really do it for myself. What do you all think?
