Just wanted to send a quick message to be mindful of what you’re posing on social media, especially TikTok. Our store lost good workers today because of silly mistakes. Be careful guys! ❤️

there's that one video that's blowing up on twitter right now of the barista tossing the drink over their shoulder -- I felt bad for laughing. wonder if they've still got their job.

They posed with their middle fingers up, on the floor, with their aprons on. Smh

I’m noticing that Starbucks seems to let certain ones slide (the more playful ones), but they crack down on ones that could be/are considered inappropriate or negative towards the company. I say this as one of our baristas went viral a few months back over a video in which he removed his shirt and he almost got fired (our DM thought the video was funny so he was lucky), but a shift friend of mine posts tiktoks all the time that get thousands of views and nothing is said to him.

I worry about this constantly for my former barista's they make tiktoks often and I've just been sitting there like "how long til sbux finds them" ; A ;
