@ shifts who put baristas in one place to fuck with them (i.redd.it)

Favorite part of being a shift was when every barista wanted to work with me because I’d ask what role they wanted to be in that day and I’d keep it fresh by asking them again midway thru a shift if they wanted to be somewhere else or if they’re good where they’re at 😌

You’re the best kind of shift ❤️

As a current shift, I try to do that too. Or if I know a barista prefers bar over dto I'll place them there. They know I will do my best to work with all of them. ☺️

I just get thrown on till none stop. Haven’t been on a position outside of till for maybe a year, spanning two different stores. My first store was the same.

Which is fine cause I hate bar lol.

Our temp ASM puts me in DTR for the entirety of my 8 hour shifts every single time she works with me. If I ask to move she straight up tells me “no, I will not.” She puts new beans on bar/cs who haven’t been trained yet just so she doesn’t have to put me there. Thank guck tomorrow is her last day before she moves halfway across the country 😫

(It’s been brought up to my SM but she just says “well I’m sure ASM had a good reason” like there is no good reason for keeping baristas in ONE spot for 8 hours)

I get stuck on register cause no one else wants to do it 🙃

Did the ASM ever explain why??
throwaway3456678 2 points 2y ago
Nope. If I ask she just ignores me or walks away. She has made it clear multiple times that she doesn’t like me, whatever the reason may be so I feel like that’s why I’m stuck on DTO by myself all the time.

I have one shift who puts me on dto for 7 hours because she doesn’t like me

😆 I normally don’t upvote gripes but this is something that happened to me for a long time and I am here to make an exception to that rule.
