Training green beans (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by throwaway3456678
Does anyone else just absolutely hate training???? I’m one of the few people at my store who is good enough on bar to train new people (even though I’m not a certified barista trainer) and I just can’t

I move fast, I cannot explain things at all, and it’s painful to stand and train for hours when I see the store in flames around us knowing I can’t jump in and help, because that results in rushing the green bean or completely pushing them off to the side while I play catch-up. I’m not someone who can teach well and so many of our green beans have a hard time learning new positions because of that. It makes me feel bad but I tell my shifts all the time to use me as the absolute last resort as a trainer, because I can’t do a good job at it, but for some reason I’m the one who has been training people every day the past week. We have 4 certified trainers who do a damn good job at teaching new beans things and yet they haven’t trained once. It’s just exhausting grrrr

I hate training. The $65 bonus isn’t worth the disappointment I feel after every training session. That sounds messed up but I’m not a teacher/trainer by nature. My SM doesn’t give me any more trainees thank goodness.

the people who like training never get trainees 😩 but yet i do. my SM is trying to promote me tho so i think that’s why she’s so adamant about me training so much rip
