stay at home... (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by colonade17
There was a recent update that included the phrase "*stay home if you feel sick*". Under normal circumstances that would be the correct advice, but the actual CDC guidance is "*stay home as much as possible*", and my state and city health departments have issued emergency orders requiring all non-essential workers to stay at home. These are two different sentences that mean two very different things. This really bothers me that we're being given guidance that doesn't match what health departments are saying. But I guess it would be harder to get anyone to show up to work right now if our company messaging was to "stay home as much as possible"

Youre nitpicking. Everyone that does anything with food have been deemed essential, first of all. Second of all they are telling people to *stay home from work* if they feel sick, not to only stay home if they feel sick and otherwise do what they want.

Starbucks and other drive thrus aren’t essential.

And yet literally every single state has allowed them to stay open along with restaurants that do curbside pickup

Im glad you have lived a life that makes fast food and restaurants simply a luxury for you and never a lifeline.
