I don’t want it anymore (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by whatismineisyours
A lady came thru our drive thru and said she didn’t want her drink anymore because we weren’t wearing gloves, yet this lady wasn’t wearing a mask.

If you’re so concerned about stuff like that then stay home you dumb bitch.

They should be required to wear masks, or they can’t be served. Why do we have to when they don’t? It’s so stupid how some customers get pissed about shit like this...DON’T EAT OUT IF YOU’RE SO WORRIED! STAY HOME WE DON’T WANT YOU NEAR US!!! God these stupid customers piss me off so much.

That happened at my Starbucks too.

I won't serve anyone not wearing a mask. Even covering your mouth with your shirt I'll take.

How do you get away with that? We aren’t allowed to deny anyone service.

I explicitly told my manager that if she wants to serve them that's fine. But I would not be doing that and if she wants to protect her baristas then she should refuse service too. And it's a different kind of refuse service- it's not refusing service based on skin color or religion Etc. It's based on safety.
But honestly if my manager tried to make me serve people still I would leave and come back with a lawsuit ... but I have a lawyer uncle so I understand that's not what everyone wants to do or can afford to do. But I bet you calling the partner care line would be pretty good too

Starbucks’s policy is that if something makes you uncomfortable you don’t have to do it.

"Okay"

Is all I would say. Theres no reason we need to wear gloves. We touch the outside of everything your food touches.

I’ve been saying this the entire time. I want consistent thinking here. If somebody is that worried/freaking out then stay home. The only people going out should be the people who either don’t care or don’t believe the stuff they’re hearing. I had one lady wipe down her card before she gave it to me and wipe it down again when I gave it back. If you’re that worried, stay home.

In defense to the mask, I am in Texas and everything has opened so there isn’t anyone wearing masks around here. The workers still are but no one else that’s in the stores or at the restaurants/drive thru. Not saying it’s right, but that’s how it is here right now. 😱

I live in Arizona and it is the same here. There are definitely some people wearing masks, but for the most part no one is anymore.

Wow, that sucks. Folks should be wearing masks, that’s the point

Is it easier to wash your hands plenty of times with or without putting a fresh pair of gloves on constantly?

That’s what I don’t get about the whole gloves thing.

Unless someone's really on their stuff with the gloves it becomes more a hazard than a help

Did you explain that gloves simply act as an extension of your hands and literally touch the exact same things

When my county is one of the hot zones and we do everything we can to stay clean but you as a customer don’t do anything but act like we are the dirty ones I’m going to react like that.
