Hi, 247×××× here. Its bittersweet to hang up my apron. I've loved training 6 baristas for the store in my time. I loved making cold brew. I loved closing. I loved the regulars I have a close relationship with. I loved my team. But, it's time for me to move on. I've been passed on for SSV 3 times and feel I'm wasting my time with the company at this stage if my life. I'm only 20, I don't have a lot of experience in management l, so I understand why they don't feel I'm ready. I'm optimistic looking to the future knowing I'm always welcome back.

Starbucks has opened so many doors for me, given me so many friendships, so many memories. I'm forever grateful.
