Just scrolling through this sub and noticed so many posts about partners quitting, which is funny because I *just* quit as well. I am quitting because my family is moving out of state and ultimately decided not to stay with the company when I move. I have had fun with the coworkers at my store but I honestly wish I worked at a more nuanced coffee shop, which I probably will when I move. I feel as if Starbucks is the "fast food" of coffee, and the customers are so rude. Even my store's regulars talk down to us as if we were children who don't know anything about coffee - but to be honest, sbux coffee ain't good at all compared to other shops. Gonna miss the partners at my store, but goodbye Starbucks!!
