Starbucks Baristas: The daily grind

So my manager let a customer into the store a few days ago.. (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Alybear91
He’s a regular. But he also lives in Nebraska (I’m located in south Texas) & had just gotten back from a business trip in California.
There were five of us in the store who saw my manager let him inside, and I’m kind of freaking out as to whether or not I should call PRC.
Among our at risk partners there’s people with asthma & a girl who’s about 5 months pregnant.
I’m at odds with whether or not I should call corporate to let them know about the incident because my manager isn’t a terrible person, but she let him in to order only because she hadn’t “seen him in a while”.
Also, this regular is NOBODY’S favorite as he’s an older man who makes dirty jokes and gross comments in general (ex. Once I wore red lipstick and he asked me if I “got dressed up for daddy.”)
I’m just looking for advice because I’m not sure if this is something that could get my manager fired, however, I feel it was completely nonsensical for her to let him in to chat.

These two people should absolutely be self-isolating at home right now, not working in a store

Not everyone had good hours in February and can afford to self isolate. I know I can’t afford to self isolate.

They can’t afford to stay home. The girl who’s pregnant has a complicated legal status (when I said south Texas I mean I live 20 mins from Mexico) so she’s allowed to work, but won’t be getting the 1200 government check from the CARES act.

Do you know why the guy was let in? Only reason I’d come in contact with this scumbag is to sock him right in the face. I’m disappointed with my fellow Nebraskan

She just wanted to talk to him because he had been out of town for so long...

I think you should talk to her, and let her know what she did was wrong. And well, if she threatens anything then I would call PRC

I had a barista let one of his cop friends in to use the restroom. I nearly LOST it on him.

Yes. I’m located in CA and it’s pretty bad down here. A friend’s dad’s coworker passed away from corona and another friend’s dad just got out of the icu with it. Who knows what that guy is carrying back from here.

Report her immediately to PRC and your DM. Not only is that a security risk considering no one but employees are supposed to be inside the stores right now, but she just put all of you at risk. I am appalled by this.
