no honestly!! before i got a job at sbux no one respected my pronouns at my old job. now everyone sees my pin and respects it (even some customers which i love). i remember one time i went into starbucks (my current location acc) and the barista saw me coming in (gay as hell) (i live in a redneck state so to see a queer irl happens once in a lifetime (unless you work at sbux)). anyways, this dude gave me queer privilege and i just need the kids to know, “sometimes it pays to be gay” — Oscar Martinez (The Office)

he gave me my drink free (bc he thought the pic of it looked cool), added extra caramel crunch topping for free, and was too hyped overall which honestly, was needed (i promise you this wouldn’t have happened otherwise if i didn’t look gay af). anyways, fast forward a few months… this barista is gone BUT i work there now so…. sbux attracts the gays. i don’t make the rules

oh and my eye bags due to mental illness? drops to the floor
