How not to feel guilty - tips (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by catholicprincess
Guys and Gals,

Yesterday was my last day at Starbucks, I decided to walk away from it all into something a little more promising, weekends off and nights free except for one. Better paying as well. I have almost a year old son, and I wanted to be at home with him as much as possible. I came to Starbucks (hired on and everything) after two months of having my son. It was my dream job after college except that it wasn’t I expected. I thought it would be this welcoming environment where partners would be all talking except for my team was all cliquey. I felt a lot of anxiety working there. I got talked down to, and on. Partners played favorites and I would say eventually pushed me out. I ended up missing work because I didn’t feel welcome there (I was on my last final written warning).

I need some tips on not to feel guilty about leaving.

Never ever feel guilty about looking out for you and yours. You and your family are #1. Starbucks is high turnover for a reason but this applies to any job. The work is not for you to contribute to whatever the company is doing. The work is to support your life. Not be your life, support it. If it is not supporting you, move the fuck on.
