Two weeks tomorrow. (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by daisesfordays
I’m putting in my two weeks tomorrow and I honestly feel so …done. I don’t even want to work these last two weeks because 3 of my shifts are scheduled outside my availability, one of the days is on a N/A day for me, I’m working with the new manager for the rest of them who just sits in the back and lets the store crash and burn. I’m just so…burnt out. I don’t want to do this anymore. I have no cares about people who don’t even know my name. (Looking at you DM who I’ve had multiple personal talks/phone calls/meetings with over the past 5 years.) my coworkers are at the same level I am, but have no escape due to school and/or health benefits. When I mentioned to one of them that I may have found a new job with health benefits, she almost cried and asked where and if they were still hiring. My heart breaks leaving them, but not the siren. Not at all.

234*** saying goodbye.

You’re not required to work outside your availability and honestly I wouldn’t show up for those shifts. Putting in your two weeks is great for the company as it gives them time to prepare but it isn’t a requirement. I’d also contact partner resources about the scheduling issues even though you’re leaving and tell them you can’t show up for those shifts

I contacted my old manager and my DM and told them both the situation and they threw the “you’re a shift supervisor, so you need to put forth more effort and lead by example”. I refuse to be guilt tripped into working. My life is not Starbucks. I don’t even want to work these last two weeks, but I can’t fuck over my coworkers. They don’t deserve even more shit.

Call partner resources and maybe see if you can find coverage for the shifts
