so annoyed with my store lately! rant !!(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by sunshinebad
i have worked at my store for exactly a year today, and i just honestly get zero recognition for everything i do. i come in on my days off, i cover people’s shifts all the time, i extend my shifts and switch shifts and close ALL the time and i constantly am going above and beyond and nothing! my coworkers and I are starting to literally all hate each other, there’s only a few of us and almost all girls so our periods sync together as well... so that’s not fun. Also, a new girl switched over and i literally trained her without being a trainer! and she’s been there like a month and my manager already made HER a trainer and puts her in charge of things and she thinks she can boss us all around now, and all of us are so fed up w it. I am so sick of not even being appreciated for everything i do. everyday i go into work in a good mood and everyone is just SO NEGATIVE ALL THE TIME and complaining and rude as hell, so I get mad and am the same way back, and then my manager yells at ME for having a bad attitude and being bitchy like ????? I am so over it honestly the only thing keeping me now is the holiday pay coming up with over time.

Stop covering, switching shifts and staying over. Setting professional boundaries with your manager will help you not feel as bad. U don’t get paid enough to be a martyr for Starbucks.

Yep. If you’re not getting recognized for all the things you do, stop doing them.

Starbucks is falling apart. It’s what they deserve.

omg are u from my store lmao dis is exACTLY how i feel!!! honestly the only thing that keeps me “neutral” and not too negative is telling myself that “i don’t care” that the drive times or refunding karens don’t matter to me and don’t affect me!!

I so understand. My boss is suuuper biased. A few baristas get hour-long breaks, never clean or re stock, get to leave early, and get priority in when they get to work. The other half of us are stuck closing every day, get 30 min lunches, and are constantly getting told off. Thinking about trying to move stores... have you thought about doing something similar? at least another location wouldn't have to train you.
