I was just sent on a two week quarantine because a family member was experiencing symptoms, got tested, and tested negative.
I guess they are just being super careful and trying not to hinder operations in the process, especially since many stores were shuttered and/or are being affected by protests and riots.
Going to be a rocky time for a while :-/

My store just got a covid case and so many of us were in contact w that coworker that, after sending us all on 2 week quarantines, we had to close the store!

They tested positive?—- also curious- did they shut your store down for the professional cleaning?
poisonfoodsupply3 points3y ago
yes

Just had this happen at my store today!! Lost a third of the staff and I had FOUR people for a Friday open to close. We're on limited hours of operation from 6am-2pm, but still! Also, a truck day. Another shift had to come in to deal with the truck on her NINTH day of work in a row. My store manager is quarantining too of course, so no help there. I almost quit today, and it's only the first of TWO weeks of this shit. And I bet you the girl doesn't have COVID b/c this has happened 3 other times in my store and none actually had it.

No test?— would think they’d have to do that IF they’re positive- they shut the store down for professional cleaning. — is that happening?

This girl is the first one who's actually getting tested thankfully!! She's awaiting results. We did shut down midday when she started reporting symptoms and they had the store deep cleaned. Trouble is, some of the people still working have had recent contact with the girl. Starbucks only cares about the last 48 hours though. 🙄

Going forward tho I would think at very least whole pod needs to quarantine for 7-14 days— right?! Keep us posted on how it rolls out-,& be safe & well!!!!
