Same here. I think customers don’t realize that amount stress we go through and still treat us like crap.
cozyboy24917 points3y ago
Yep, that about sums it up for me too.

Wow lol Me being a customer shines a whole different light on Starbucks on what y'all go through

Agreed!! I love my job as well but every time I work happy hour I call corporate total bullshit with their “we care for our partners” narrative. Yes, we have amazing benefits but our pay SUCKS ASS!!

People think food service is easy but man... especially with all these hours being cut it’s like hell on earth
culture_cypher4 points3y ago
yeah... my s/o keeps reminding me that they’re paying less than what unemployment is offering beneficiaries and yet we are at risk every day because some* SB partners are apathetic to this pandemic and its putting everyone at risk
edit* because I said most but who really knows, I dont mean to suggest I’m the only one who cares.. anyway!

I love the components of this job, too, but the toxic customer culture has turned me into someone I don’t recognize. Actually, it’s for this reason that I just out in my two weeks.

Why don't you apply for a job as a barista elsewhere? Plenty of coffee shops around these days right?

because i love my job lol— it’s just stressful but any job is stressful
knexvillain1 points3y ago
I understand that it's your job, but there are other similar positions out there that aren't as stressful.
madraykiin1 points3y ago
any job becomes stressful in time, i think, so even if they moved, they might just get stressed out there as well. plus it’d be kind of difficult to find another barista position that offers the kind of benefits starbucks does.
