Thinking of quitting on my third day of training, I don’t think customer service is my thing… (self.starbucksbaristas)

I nearly quit in my 3rd day when my ASM pulled me aside and said that everyone on the team feels that I am unhelpful and unwilling to learn and just basically a terrible person... all because I asked questions during training as my trainer had went home sick day 3. (:

6 months in and I just put in my notice. Depending on your store, it literally does not get better. I wish I had better words of encouragement, but if you can afford to leave the insurance/other benefits like having a job behind for greener pastures, please do.

Best of luck fellow Green bean.

my first day back (new store tho) someone came to me and said straight up "there's already been some complaints about you" and then didnt hesitate to lay them out when i asked what was wrong

i went home worried that i was going to have to deal with drama, pettiness, etc and would have to leave, but it turns out it was just that 1 person.

it's good to stick around for the first week, and see if attitudes change.

it's not for everyone. if you know, definitely quit now before the manager puts you on the schedule. it will be far easier for the team to not have find coverage for every single shift you get scheduled for.

this job ain't even worth a "wait and see". best of luck to you in the future.

Thank you, I did quit and manager thanked me for doing it before being scheduled.
