if you actually do get written up, I would tell your SM you would like the DM brought into the conversation and if that doesn’t help, talk to ethics and compliance and file a complaint

This made me very upset. Sorry this happened to you.
You shouldn’t get a write up, you came in for your shift. You didn’t call out. That should be all the argument you need. I would try very hard to transfer away from that manager

you’re not a bad barista, your SM is just being a pill. get your DM involved if you do get written up. best of luck to you wonderful :)

Your manager (and shift) is a twat. Talk to your DM and if that doesn't work out go to ethics and compliance. SM's like that grind my gears!

So I didn’t receive a write up for this particular incident but recently my shifts/SM have been on me about things more since this situation. I was written up today for a joke I sent into our store’s group chat, a joke I made about a “customer having black air forces”, off the clock.
I was written up for discrimination and told by my store manager that I “racially” profiled him, which didn’t sit right with me as I’m an Haitian-American barista who’s had way too many situations.
I signed the write up but soon looked in the group chat to find baristas telling to “stfu” and much more but the manager hasn’t said anything about it.
Any advice? Do I just take the documented coaching and go or what? This is really messing with my career progression.
