Wait. Did she have you leave the baristas without a SSV for an hour for balloons?

Yes lol

Unless she is on her break I think that’s against rules. Also, it doesn’t matter how late you leave, you have to clean everything that needs to be done for closing. Ignore dis bish

Like I’m sorry lady but were the balloons that important??? The two ppl that stayed weren’t able to preclose efficiently bc u sent your shift lead to go buy balloons for launch. I should’ve said no lol. On top of that you know I’m new!!!! So I need all the time I can get.

Wow. I can't believe she had the nerve to complain after you did her a favor. I wouldn't dare. I would be so appreciative that someone helped me out.

An SSV, who is the only key holder in the store, should never leave the store on breaks or anything in case needed. That is irresponsible or the SM to ask you to do that, and since you are new it is understandable, but also know that that’s the standard and standard will save you in most situations…looking up things on the partner hub will save you!!


Also that informal texting style is killing me, if my manager texted me like this I would instantly not reply.

Were you at least clocked in when you went to get them?

I cant even read what this person wrote; it's like they had stroke after typing two words.

I know it’s not her because none of the names match my store but my sm types like this too. All “heeeeeyyyy I know it’s last minute but could you come close tonight?? let me know thanksssss”

drives me nuts.

​

edit: also be sure to save all these texts and maybe keep a note in your phone detailing each instance of insanity. Always be building a case against someone who has the potential to punch down on you. you may never need it but it’s always better to have it. Okay thaaanksss byyeeee
