Working double tomorrow 😩😩 (self.starbucksbaristas)

Ugh I picked up a shift on top of my closing shift tomorrow so yay me 745am-930pm. I just did a 6am-6pm Saturday. 😩😩. I work for a small store so we don’t get that many hours so I take me when I can!

Which is why I don’t pick up shifts any more. Schedule me closer to 35 and I’d be tempted to pick up a shift. Schedule me 20 - 18 and fuck off if someone calls out 🥱 Not cursing at you. But I think 8 hour shifts are respectable. 5 hour shifts are not.

Edit : I’m replying more or less to the “I don’t have slot of hours so I pick up what I can”

I think it’s just being /too nice/ which doesn’t get you respect.

Hey that’s how I feel lol.

I think I may be losing money in the short term. But if the SM wants to schedule someone dependable / reliable they will know to schedule me 😇

I was pulling 35 hours comfortable and even 39.9 at my store but I was working mornings open / first partner to come in. But I hated working a slammed drive through store every damn shift.

I am doing 9:30a-8:45p tomorrow. I’ve been pulling a lot of 12/13 hour shifts lately.

Lol I wish I could be like you! I really need money so I’m like dammit. I am waiting to transfer I’ve only been with the company 2 months.

I work at small store now too... it’s. Even a pain. I’ve applied to a few places outside of Starbucks so I’m hoping to hear good news soon

Yea I actually just got a 2nd job at Home Depot part time like 3 days a week. I’m hoping to transfer come my 3-4 months.

Not to be a dick but you’re the one picking up those hours. No space to complain if you need the money.
I have to work two jobs (Ontario is expensive) so it’s a 14-hour day almost 5 days a week. On top of being a third-year university student. It’s just what you have to do.
You’re doing great though, keep it up! Just don’t burn yourself out like I did!

I want even complaining, I know I chose to pick the shifts for the money and it honestly wasn’t even bad,
