Starbucks Baristas: The daily grind

no call no show (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by icedquaddepresso
New partner here, I didn’t come into for my opening shift and I didn’t text/call to let anyone know all day.
I was having a panic attack when I woke up over some personal issues at home, I felt embarrassed and scared to tell the ssv let alone the sm, I needed a mental health day & that they would would be needing coverage. Granted I was only scheduled for 4am - 8am. I knew how bad it was going to be that I wasn’t there but also I was in no place to go into work feeling how I was.
Am I going to be written up or given some type coaching for doing this?? Do you think it’s too late to tell them??

(My SM is very passive aggressive, I was late for an opening shift for the very first time not too long ago and they didn’t say anything.
I regularly open the store and one day out of the week I’ll be scheduled for a 5am/6am shift, without fail every single time they’ll ask me why am I still tired if I still got to sleep in)

I believe no call/no shows are a write-up offense unless you have a really good reason but I’ve never gone through that so I don’t have personal experience.

what does a write up exactly do??

When you get written up you lose your chance of getting promoted for at least six months and to many write ups can lead to termination.

thank you for the clarification!

Depending on your manager you may get a warning but if they’re passive aggressive like you mentioned you’ll probably get written up. I’m sorry I don’t want to scare you I’ve just never been a no call no show.

No call/no show is at the very least a final written corrective action. Most of the time it’s automatic separation. But you also should have been informed of this and other time and attendance policies during your “First Sip” meeting with your manager.

If you weren't informed of the no call no show policy you can use that against your sm to tell them you weren't informed of the policy and didn't know you couldn't do it (but make it sound more believable). Or just be honest with your sm. If they're cool and you're a good worker they might just tell you don't do it again
