One girl at the store looked me in the eye and told me “ seriously we don’t deserve this”.

I know why she told me that. Some of the baristas speak poorly of me. Even though they don’t know who I am personally. It’s not a big deal. I’m not pity nor do I care about those insulting Insecure individuals. Those individuals will be missing out on personal tips and the Christmas gifts this year. Santa don’t play that ! ;)

>Some of the baristas speak poorly of me

Why is that and how do you know?
Iwillhavejustice [OP] 2 points 2y ago
It’s a couple barista’s that have worked there since last year or longer. That are familiar with Sid my Starbucks nightmare.


Story time
My Starbucks Nightmare.
During Christmas I do my best to pick out an individual or the underdog of Starbucks. I privately want to do something to change their lives. So at one of my local Starbucks I noticed a guy that look like “Sid from Hey Arnold” it was more than clear that the other barista’s didn’t treat him with very much respect. So I made it a point to get this guys attention and give a Christmas present. I knew that making him stand out would automatically show others that he does deserve to be respected. I found out this individual dreamed of being a history teacher . So I started getting stuff together for his future dream.

He was also without a vehicle so I was planning on helping him with that. I’ve rescued individuals from kidnapping situations and I’ve encountered a lot of perverts and unfortunate circumstances in my life. I’m very smart when it comes to making huge financial decisions even those to help others.
I make sure individuals are who they say they are.
This will come in to play when I finish the story. One day I seen “Sid” walking from work. I offered to give him a ride. During this ride he told me that all the barista’s love me except for one. I knew instantly who it was and I asked why. He informed me that specific manager stated that “(I) had to be crazy for talking to him and the fact that I wasn’t married was somehow a big deal”. ( basically because she believes he so unfortunately ugly, it unfathomable why anyone who speak to him) {Sid should have reported her for that statement, I felt horrible she said that to Sid}.

I informed him that I knew who she was and that Christmas was planning on giving her an envelope of $300 cash because she always seemed upset.

I assumed at the time it was because she was going through a difficult time. However it was because she strictly hated me. I strictly have always use the drive-thru. So I don’t know why she had a personal hatred towards me.

Sid then made a statement that they’re going to “spit in my drinks”. Sid went on to ask me how do I know about some of the individuals that work at that location. I informed him that sometimes I meet individuals, I help with their missing children cases. So I hear baristas Conversing. I never order in store.
I know nothing but superficial facts about some of the employees.
Sid went on to call me “a stalker, something about facebook etc”.
This was after Sid had added me on Facebook. No big deal I use that Facebook for business networking and artist in my area.
Sid then got out of my vehicle when we arrived at his destination. Stood by the door and stated “COME on hurry up it’s been like four months and the longest I’ve ever had to wait for sex is six months.”

My heart totally sunk. I’m not from the state but I will tell you individuals from the state are crazy so take from that what you will because I’m pretty sure you could figure out which state it is. I’ve encountered nothing but perverts and not very genuine individuals that treat me like I’m a trophy and it’s sad.

Sid had no clue that if he played his cards right it wouldn’t have mattered ,if he didn’t have money or wasn’t the most popular or handsome guy in the world. If he was interested in me for the right reasons or even a good friend ! 100% I would have given him the opportunity to know me. I value my time and I’m glad I discovered who he was sooner than later.


My only intentions were to help show the other baristas that he deserves as much respect as the next guy. He certainly got the attention and the respect of everyone else.

I ran a background check on Sid not only does he have a very long criminal record. He’s been arrested for such crimes as burglary. That’s a pretty serious offense in my opinion. What’s even more alarming about the perverted behavior is his biological father is a registered child predator.

Sid ended up dating One of the very young managers at this location. Sid a few months later contacted me and asked me if I would be willing to help him get a phone. I informed him I wasn’t comfortable with helping him out because he’s in a relationship. Sid denied being in a relationship and then started explaining to me. His girlfriend broke his cell phone, she has anger issues she’s very abusive and list goes on. Sid also told me that his girlfriend confessed the only reason why she started dating him was because she saw what I look like and it made her jealous. Sid was Desperate but he informed me he couldn’t go back to his parents house because he doesn’t get along with his stepfather. So these people Are totally immature unstable and bonkers.. Lol ! (I have no drama ! I’m an adult ! This isn’t normal ! )

I returned all of the extremely expensive material that I invested in to surprise Sid in achieving his dream of becoming a history teacher. I had my assistant speak to Professors, Deans, Superintendents to get the best fed back on books, supplies etc.

Someone suggested some sort of restaurant server shoes that apparently the best in the world for standing etc. Expensive, expensive I mean expensive shoes. Guess who didn’t get his...... Sid.

Last I heard Sid was going around committing Deformation of character. Telling others that I am a stalker !
Sids girlfriend A.k.a. manager has been having an affair with an ex. She still is. I don’t feel bad for him.

He doesn’t know anything about me personally all I wanted to do was change someone’s life for the better and end the cycle of struggle, pain and hate one person at a time.
It’s important to note that I only spoke to Sid a handful of times. The longest We spent alone was in my vehicle on a five minute car ride to his Destination.

So now I’m extremely careful. I still plan on picking a couple individuals out this holiday season to do something extra special and again in private.

Even more so a few Baristas I’ve seen work endlessly and Corp has totally taken advantage of during this time. Probably a few from Reddit. Because Mail isn’t shut down and it’s easy to send gifts or money.

I will tell you the state has some of the most craziest individuals and snakes in the grass. So many individuals I’ve met from around the world and the country have stated the same exact thing to me.

I don’t know how one becomes so disliked from showing kindness. I however firmly believe it’s because Sid didn’t get to foam my cappuccino. Foam my cappuccino I tell you.

This is the craziest story I’ve ever read, lol. I have no idea what state you’re referring to, though. West coast or east coast??
cody_1849 23 points 2y ago
I can’t tell you how much this warms our hearts. It may seem like a small simple thing but it really helps us feel appreciated and loved. Thank you for being a fantastic friend to your baristas.

My two local stores Has already received gift bags a month or two ago worth at least $15 plus in retail. Fresh donuts on Saturday morning when they are totally packed and munchkins because I don’t know who likes innies and who likes outties! Lol

I also connected with a local phone company to give my local baristas a sweet deal if their screens are cracked or if they need to buy a new phone. Due to hours being cut. If they mention this to the owner. I personally will take care of a percentage of the costs. If they actually take advantage of this. Their in for a great deal.


I tip bigger than my bill most of the time or I personally put the money in a Envelope and request the barista immediately writes their name on it. If that barista interacts with kindness.

If someone gave me one of these I’d probably end up stimming right then and there. And wouldn’t be able to control myself and would end up giving the person a hug
Iwillhavejustice [OP] 4 points 2y ago
I’d take that illegal hug !

Especially since I can’t go trick or treating like I do most years. This would make my week! I have autism so I really look forward to Halloween every year and covid makes me sad bc no trick or treating so I would freak out if someone gave this to me (in a good way)
Iwillhavejustice [OP] 2 points 2y ago
I’d freak out with you and sneak you an extra bag! Because we all need these types of vitamins! Lol. Keep an eye out on clearance candy by the middle of next week it should be marked down to 75% off in most places. Literally, TREAT YOURSELF:)
ih8yogurt 2 points 2y ago
I know. It’s hard tho. And I really like the trick or treating because every year I get a ton of candy and then I divide it into categories and count hid many are in each category and make a chart. I sit on the floor in my living room for like two hours sorting and counting. It really helps with my ocd and anxiety and is an awesome coping skill for the loneliness I feel all the time
kanyon01 7 points 2y ago
I love this! We have a couple regulars who always give us treats and bags of candy. They also gave us a bag of fresh apples just randomly. We love it a lot. It’s really nice to feel like people appreciate us.
Iwillhavejustice [OP] 2 points 2y ago
My two local stores are super spoiled. However I’ve changed how I give. I use to pick the “ under dog “ of the store during Christmas. To help change their lives. Last year it turned into a nightmare. This year I’m doing baristas locally and some from Reddit.

Iwillhavejustice [OP] 1 points 2y ago
What about tips ?
sir_ramen 1 points 2y ago
In a jar outside the window. Only the shift touches it.
misodeadinside 1 points 2y ago
I hope they were able to take it. My store is strict with not taking anything because of Covid. But it’s the thought that counts. 😊
Iwillhavejustice [OP] 3 points 2y ago
These bags were put together in a Sterilized environment, with mask with gloves and everything inside of these bags came right out of a brand new bags or packaging. When they were delivered I was also wearing a mask. To ensure their safety, I always asked for someone to come out and take the boxes bags are in. I’m sorry it’s that way for you.
lizeken 1 points 2y ago
Come to my store pls
Iwillhavejustice [OP] 1 points 2y ago
If I were local to you. I would!
EasternEngineer4 -2 points 2y ago
I suggest a couple sugar free options too. Along with maybe Nut free and/or gluten free options. A LOT of people would love the sentiment, but won’t be able to enjoy the gifts due to diabetes and allergy concerns. Either way, your kind act will be graciously received with the love you are showing.
Iwillhavejustice [OP] 2 points 2y ago
I don’t think you understand how big those white bags are and what’s inside of those.
