Can I wear this to work? I know it's a simple design but I can't hide it under a shirt. (i.redd.it)

bestie I won’t lie, I’m confused
barista19471057 [OP] 6 points 2y ago
It's a collar/choker. Sorry I know I didn't have the best picture

I personally work in a Safeway starbucks, for us we cannot wear any jewelry at all. I would go on the safe side and ask your manager on your first day.

Uh probably, but its not really professional and you are gonna be hard judged.
barista19471057 [OP] 5 points 2y ago
Yeah I understand that. I wear it everywhere else so I'm used to that and honestly I'm about to quit anyways lmao

Good thing it’s a Starbucks and not a boring office job then. We have partners who wear necklaces/chokers similar to the one in the photo and I’ve never seen anyone judge them for it (except people who think it’s still the 60s 🥴)

Iirc the dress code says you can wear one necklace IF it can be tucked into your shirt. But so far as I know it’s never been enforced at my store. so like if you wanna wear it, wear it until you’re told otherwise idk 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi OP, I wear literally layered necklaces at work and no one has said anything about it, and I'm fairly certain that the dress code doesn't say anything about necklaces, only earrings, facial piercings, rings, and wrist jewelry

Also I'm so sorry about the judgy comments.
barista19471057 [OP] 3 points 2y ago
Thank you! Yeah it made me feel bad so I didn't wear it :(
I'll keep that in mind for next time I work though!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
HappyMelonGirl 6 points 2y ago
You don't ever deserve to feel like that and I honestly thought the choker is really cute! Just ignore them, they must be having a really bad day to be judging a total stranger on their accessory choices. I'm sad that it was fellow baristas though. You deserve to feel confident.

Thank you!!! You just made my day ❤️❤️❤️ stay safe and stay blessed!

I'll wear necklaces and earrings all the time at work

I mean we can wear jewelry but I wouldn’t recommend it 😂

You can’t wear necklaces on the floor
barista19471057 [OP] 2 points 2y ago
Firstly, yes we can.
Secondly, where in the partner handbook are you reading that? Or did someone just tell you?
eckinz 3 points 2y ago
3 store managers and a few shifts have “corrected” me for wearing necklaces on the floor
barista19471057 [OP] 2 points 2y ago
Sounds like you got shitty management my friend
