My store stayed open during Covid and I chose not to take cat pay. I’ve worked full time through all of this and all of the changes and it was manageable. But now with more and more opening up I’m at a loss for what more this company wants from it’s employees. I’m an SSV and I’m fairly confident in my abilities and like to think I bring my best self to work everyday and can handle high stress and pressure But it’s just getting so hard now. Every week our DM has us opening more up. More bathrooms opening. More cafe and patio seating. More opened public garbage cans. Every few days we get another cleaning task added to the list. Having to constantly be sanitizing the tables and chairs and bathrooms, monitoring every customer to wear a mask inside the store. It’s a lot. What’s making it impossible though is that our SM is being told they can’t over schedule us anymore. For weeks we had extra partners to handle our busy dt and to have a “line concierge” to manage the flow of people in and out of the store. Now we have bare minimum partners on the floor but our DM rolls in and has the audacity to ask me where my line concierge person is. If I have a 5 partner play and I’m the ssv and I have to do my pull it leaves 4 people on the floor. Cafe steadily has people walking in. Our dt is nonstop as well as mobiles. I feel so spread thin. There’s days where over half my shift we are hitting 40 plus customers per half hour and I only ever have 4-5 people on the floor because I have to run breaks and do my tasks. How can we properly maintain cleaning standards when it’s all hands on deck just trying to pump out the sheer volume of food and beverages we have coming in. And let’s not add in people just being awful about mask wearing in general, having to take that abuse everyday.... it’s just too much. Anyone else experiencing this?
