As a night person, I haven't seen the sunset or sunrise in months

This is the only plus anymore to me for morning shifts. I'm switching to half morning/night because its just too much doing all opening.

I was the opener at my old store every shift I worked for over a year straight. Literally nothing but opens. When I switched it up it actually felt enjoyable again

This is the moment before I clock in when I consider just going home

I ride my bike to work everyday so I am always the first one since I always arrive early so for me its just a empty parking lot until like 5 mins before my shift starts

Can never bring myself to bike in the wee hours!
AUserNameThatsTaken16 points2y ago
I don’t have car but its not bad my store is only 10-20 mins away on bike depending on weather

Isn't there a perk from Starbucks for biking?
sheep_heavenly6 points2y ago
There's one for corporate employees. AFAIK bike benefits stop at basically just sponsoring you for a charity marathon or two, but if someone else knows of retail bike benefits please drop info 👀

Don’t know

When your drive window is East-SouthEast facing, so you get that glorious sunrise straight into your eyeballs all peak.

I kept sticking my head out the DT window to watch the eclipse yesterday morning lol only cool thing about being up that early. Then this was my view around 6:45am!

We don't have that kind of view in the morning but our sunsets are the bomb from our DT window. Like this one https://i.imgur.com/7IRNkeY.jpg

Yuss, my favorite mornings are when I get to see the last moments of the moon as I drive to work and then a sunrise like this about an hour or 2 into my shift
