I have done this. It is a nice feeling.

My manager kept over-scheduling me and I was burning out and often showed up to open like 10 minutes late, so 5:40 instead of 5:30 because of the bus schedule. She yelled at me; “Are you ever going to come into work on time?!” I just said “Yeah probably not....” and went home and back to bed.

Please perform the ceremonial burning of the green apron responsibly.

This just happened at my store. A really good worker, someone who I never thought this would happen just decided they were done. Huge power move, I support it.

power move

i’m debating just walking out. i start my new job on the 26 and i keep going back and forth between actually giving a notice, not showing up, or if my manager tries to write me up for “personality issues” i fully plan on telling them not to bother because i quit and just leaving

I dont work at Starbucks but I've been there before. I used to work for a Blood Center (like the Red Cross but not them). We had a huge draw the day before and only got about half of it done. I was the only one on the schedule but there were like 6 people in other departments that could help. I was expected to break down the remaining units (like 200) by myself and then wait for testing so I could label (what blood type they are) by myself (like 600 units of blood and 300 units of plasma). Then pull the units that tested positive for diseases (HIV, syphilis) and dispose of them by myself. I walked I to my directors off and turned in my badge and walk out. Nope, not doing that. They had me for 10 years and pulled that shit all the time. They couldn't keep people because they worked us to the bone. I was coming in while being in serious pain and not saying anything because I believed in what I was doing. This caused me to wait almost 2 years before getting help for something that could have been avoided. I've just learned that companies just don't care about their people, just what they can get out of you.

You did what was best for you! Good job and I'm proud (says the 41 yr old lol). 👏

Everyone should follow this brave soul and walk out.

been wanting to do this 😵‍💫

i just finished my 9th consecutive day. tomorrow is my one day off before doing 4 more consecutive days and that’s if i don’t get called in on my next 1 day off which would make it 7 consecutive days. atp i wanna walk out too.

i feel this. I showed up to my last shift before a scheduled two weeks vacation and halfway through i just… was over it. decided then & there and turned in my two weeks notice at the end of the shift and didn’t come back. best decision ever

Run, dont walk!

Good for you

I just did the same thing this morning!

That's how I quit my stint at the bux except I was a coward so I went out to my car and texted my manager that I wasn't coming back 🤣 Not proud of it but that job was toxic as hell so I don't regret it.

I love you.

I was super close to doing just that! I knew I had to give my two notice before I lost it and walked out! It’s a struggle and don’t regret it one bit!! Good luck in the future!!

We have had two people do this in the last few months. Honestly im used to working understaffed so i have nothing but respect for them

Yaaassss! Congratulations!

I get the fuck the company aspect of it but you also fucked real people that you work with. People that had to pick up your slack. Shit move honestly.
