One of my worst days (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by im-so-tired-always
I work in a kiosk and today was just extra terrible. First of all I’m 16 and just honestly really stressed with school and everything. I’m friends with most of the people in my store but our kiosk currently has 4 employees and 3 of us are part time. I have been working extra extra hours and have been working full time on every break I have. Today I worked alone all day without any breaks, I had to eat my food in the kiosk because anytime I try to take breaks customers come in the break room looking for me. Don’t get me wrong I love the job but I hate working 9.5 hours all alone with zero breaks. Also today I had some very odd customers and towards the end of my shift just felt like I was going to pass out. I overall like working in the kiosk but it can be really stressful and the only thing keeping me from leaving to corporate is my love for the store I work in. Today was a very exhausting and overall weird day. And it’s all going to happen again tomorrow.

I know the feels I would eat at the tables at the kiosk and just politely ask the customers if they could please wait till my 10 minute break was up. Most would just go shopping and come back some were less receptive but at least they be nicer realising that they were interrupting your actual break.

Hang in there.
