When people ask why I quit I just show them this screenshot of my SM’s message to our WhatsApp group 😂 (i.redd.it)

Right? If people were drawing at my store rather than working I'd be pissed and I'm just a regular barista.

I’ve walked into the store when nothings been stocked and no backups were made and the sink is clogged from inclusions being dumped in the wrong sink but someone put eyebrows and a mustache on the espresso machine and I saw my co workers goofing off on snap. I don’t have a problem with having fun at work but I do have a problem when I have to work harder to make up for that

I'm sorry, but is there more to this we should know about? I rarely side with SM's and above but most stores are drowning in annoying customers and suffering from understaffing, yet you up and quit because your manager told yall to stop drawing on the clock and actually work? And there's so many of you drawing all the time that they had to tell the whole store multiple times? Is your store on a deserted island? Is this why there's no labor for the rest of us?

I think the point OP is trying to make is the SM has made the environment a “no fun zone”. Sorry, but nobody wants to work in a workplace where “drawing” isn’t allowed. If it’s slow, it’s slow and people should be free to do as they please after they’ve cleaned.

The drawing just makes me giggle cause it's so funny while the SM is so serious.

Fuck that. If your SM wants to message you about work-related stuff while OFF the clock, they better pay you for that time.

Also, text messages are NOT an acceptable form of communication.

Thank god my manager isn’t like this. I’m sorry you had to deal with this person who’s supposed to be your leader

To be fair… I get annoyed when we’re short a person and the rest of the crew is doing dumb stuff like this while I’m trying to get the closing stuff done

Wow, your boss sounds terrible. You're not allowed to doodle on the floor while getting paid and ignoring your actual responsibilities. Oh the humanity.
