Post-shift nightmares? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by sixfin
Hey partners 🤠
After a nice, relaxing (lol) long shift with never ending cafe and mobile orders (I mean, sounds like a normal day, right?) I couldn’t wait to get into my couldn’t wait to nap it all off. Next thing I know, I’m reliving my day in an absolutely horrendous nightmare. Everything from being stalked during and after work by someone with a very large knife to forgetting where my car was parked and never being able to find it so I’m left having to sit outside while hiding like Jason Vorhees was coming for me etc etc.
I’ve been finding that as we have more shortages, the rate of my starbucks related stress nightmares has increased significantly. Are any of you experiencing (or have experienced) this?

I was an opener for 5 years. Sometimes I’d nap when I got home around 1 or so and there were a few times when Id woke up in a panic after seeing it was light out, and thought that was because I had overslept for my next open so badly that it was light out already when actually it was now around 3pm and I had only been asleep for like an hour after my last shift

I had a nightmare last night where a customer made me blend a dead bird for her dog. What in the actual F?
