Wow I made this comment yesterday and I was scheduled for an opening today and knew I was low on gas but figured I’d get some before my shift...

left my wallet at home. Shift that was supposed to open called out last night and our stand-in manager told up we’ll open 8:30 am instead. Tried to start my car, car is dead. 💀 Had to Lyft back home, walk to a gas station to buy a gas can, and then lyft back to work. 1) the driver didn’t know about the gasoline despite me putting a note in the app but he still drove me anyway and 2) the driver was kind enough to help me put gas in my tank Bc i was just gonna google it myself. I made sure to tip him generously Bc I didn’t have cash on me😭

Then I get a notif about this post again and it just reminded me to be more kind and less judgmental. I would want someone to help me out in my situation or the video above. And also taught me to not put off for things last minute. 🥴 This Mercury Retrograde kickin my ass

What does them being girls matter
ShannyES 14 points 1y ago
You mean besides being a factual statement and adding context?

Why does it seem to matter so much to you?

It's irrelevant

one time this lady's car died on dt at the window && in all seriousness, she looks at the barista at the window && goes, "I needed gas for awhile, do you think that's it??" we were all like 🤦🏾‍♀️ one of my shifts actually went to the gas station across the street to get her some gas

That’s what happened to me before I started working for Starbucks. My car just suddenly died literally right after I ordered. I couldn’t move it by myself and no one would help me. I noticed my keys still in the ignition and I took them out and tried to start the car and it turned on but the car was smoking and the smell was awful. They gave me my drink for free but sadly my car was totaled as I blew a gasket or something and oil messed up the engine. I miss that car sometimes.

This happened with a Mini Cooper in my drive through. Those little guys are surprisingly (or unsurprisingly) easy to push with a few people
