Cry

Pour a glass of wine, doom scroll and finally get my shit together. All day at the window kills me.

I work mostly night shifts.

I usually come inside, set all my stuff down, feed my cat and the strays outside, and then shower. Sometimes, I eat before showering, but I often eat after. If I have any chores to do after work, I do those before showering to avoid feeling gross again. Then, I work on any classwork I have and play videogames, watch TV, practice bass, or whatever else I feel like doing before going to bed.

before i go home and cry, i sit in my car in the parking lot for like 10 minutes processing wtf just happened, and then drive home.

Get home. Change into some comfy ass clothes. Inhale some organic, LEGAL leaves. Play some video games. Lay down and watch anime. Then shleep.

edit: i forgot to mention while hopping into some comfy clothes i cry in pain and agony bc my back is on fire and mental state is declining. put my two weeks in tho so that’ll change soon.

get home. come inside, set my stuff down, take off my work clothes, sit down on my bed, smoke a little, shower, cleaning and stuff around home, and then i just relax and end up smoking and watching tv. work is mentally draining when you’re stuck in drive thru window every day.

Try and wash the stank off and then expire on the couch. Eventually make dinner when my husband says he’s on his way home

looking for new jobs 💖

Smoke a phat cigar, maybe vape a little and can’t go wrong with drinking some good old liquor

I usually open, so I get home , get myself and my toddler some lunch, take the dogs out, feed the chickens (depending on if my hubs did in the morning or not, eat lunch and maybe watch a show or scroll while my toddler watches a show, then we nap. Then chores, dinner and winding down. Then do it all again ahaha

That sounds identical to what I do lmao

I mostly open or do 6am-12:30’s. The first thing I do is shower (I hate smelling like coffee SO MUCH) then i usually nap bc I have to wake up early ofc. Then after that it’s homework/studying, dinner, and an early af bedtime to wake up and do it all over 🤪

I close so I get home after midnight. Sit in driveway for 10-15 minutes watching TikTok’s, go inside and cry, curl up in bed and watch 3-4 hours of greys anatomy with my insanely big bowl of popcorn, read some fanfic then go to sleep.

regardless of what time i work, i always shower when i get home because that coffee/cream smell is so Strong. then i decompress by watching my fave shows/YouTubers and just forget about work for my me-time

this is exactly what i do lol

i wish i was more productive after work but i’m always mentally exhausted at the end of my shift i can’t find it in me to go out and do things

I used to go home and just smoke flower every day after getting home from work, and probably binge eat.
But I’ve become mostly sober in the past half year. Only smoking socially with friends once a month.
And my after work routine has changed dramatically.
I head to the gym after I get off of my morning shift (I’m usually an opener), and I’m there for typically an hour-hour and a half. Weight lifting has saved me. I feel so much stronger, and my carpal tunnel seems to have pretty much gone away. I honestly thought that I’d have to retire as a barista because I used to have insane pain in my right arm after a day at the bar.
After the gym, I go home and shower. Work on school (I’ve been working on a degree through ASU :) ), make dinner, and maybe I’ll read or watch a show before going to bed between 8-9 so I can open the next day.
It might not be everyone’s thing, but deleting social media to prevent from doom scrolling, and turning towards an active lifestyle saved me from my major depressive thoughts and feelings.
I kind of feel like I’m finally living. Finally want to be alive.
I used to work about 40hrs a week, but between labor cuts and introducing school to my schedule, I’m typically on the schedule for 30hrs now for reference.

Sending much love to everyone out there struggling with the sbux working experience. Stay strong 💕

Come home, cry (depending on who I worked with), contemplate quitting, work out, eat, do homework, go on my phone, maybe sleep, edit I also shower

smoke a lot of weed to recover from the day and prepare myself for the next

I marinate a little bit in my car after pulling up, I come in the house take a shower, eat some real food and knock tf out in my bed

Work mornings and mids.

I shower immediately, set alarms to wake up from a 30 minute nap, sleep through those alarms and wake up in time for my next shift.

ngl, sometimes ill end up sitting on my porch and smoking for a couple hours before i even get out of my work clothes

Shower 🚿 and change stretch it all out and sit for hours.

Context: I'm an opener and my boyfriend works an afternoon/evening job.

Get home, put down my bag, take off shoes, change into a non-dresscode shirt. Hug dog who followed me to the bedroom, hug boyfriend who is usually in the kitchen. Help finish up dinner and sit down for an episode of whatever show we're watching at the time while we eat (it's Madame Secretary right now). Countdown to departure time while boyfriend gets ready for work, and then either fall asleep on the couch or do something productive after he leaves. Usually the first one.

Shower the sins of work off of me.

take off every piece of contaminated clothing, sit in the bath for 2 hrs, sleep.

Take the long way home, listen to heavy metal, then get home and nap. Working peak every day is taking a toll on my mental health lol.

if my shift starts at any time before 3pm, flop in bed and nap. i usually wake up at 8-10pm. im not built for mornings/mids

I usually close (7p) so I eat and then kill time until 9 usually by tiktok, then I watch News with Shep Smith and then take an hour long shower usually (water included so idgaf) and then usually tik tok and go to bed around 11 or 12

Usually take a nap and have nightmares about Starbucks. Today was one of my managers punching me in the face.

I’m typically off at like noon so I sit in my driveway for a few mins then go inside put my pajamas on and flop into bed for the rest of the day and maybe FaceTime my friends. I feel like I can’t do anything the rest of the day this job is so drainingfggfhfhhf

#1 is pretty obvious…..POOP. Change out of the disgusting smelling clothes. Eat/smoke/go for a hike, otherwise I’ll fall asleep too early (opener). Usually have dinner around 630. Chill til bed at 9/930.

I come home and get some much needed thc in the system 😂 then usually get to work on homework for my degree program thru SCAP, or maybe open Ableton and work on making some music or any other creative endeavor I can muster if I’m caught up on school stuff

Get bombarded with love by my dog lol kiss my boyfriend. He's usually playing video games cause he gets off work earlier than me. I play my own video game or scroll my phone til we're ready to make dinner. We watch tv together while we eat. We either shower together or he goes to sleep early and I take a bubble bath. Lay in the bed and chill til sleepy. If I have energy I do some nightime yoga or a workout before my bath.

shower and smoke a bowl

I used to take such good care of myself 😂 but now it's pretty much the same as your routine

I listen to the same song in my drive way super loud well debating if I need a job, I then go inside set my keys down and grab the böńg and lighter and try not to killth myself

Usually I eat somewhere before I get home (unless there’s something I can heat up at home) and then just essentially hibernate in my room for the rest of the day😅

I could literally make a aesthetic “what i do after work” tiktok with how consistent i am with what i do

i close so usually i’ll be going home, shower, then watch tv until i fall asleep

Clothes off, pajamas on, ice water secured, fan on, cat acquired, phone plugged in, lights off, Tumblr on.

I live about 45 mins from my store so I either drive in silence or call my partner and rant about my shift. Typically I threaten to quit a few times and then laugh it off, but deep down I’m kind of serious.

smoke a fat bowl and check discord, then watch tv for a bit

sit in the parking lot and space out for 5 minutes, drive home, sit in the bathroom and doom scroll for like half an hour, then take a big ass nap. which sucks because i do freelance work outside of starbies so i have shit i should be doing as soon as i get home, but i’m always so fucking tired

I walk out of my home office, walk down the hall and let pups out for 26 th time of day.
Pour a cold beverage and thank the heavens I don’t have commute anymore!

I immediately shuck my shoes off, limp around my apartment on my horribly painful feet. Tear off chest binder, finally take a full, deep breathe. Put on some comfy clothes, lay down for a few minutes while I Process

I wish I could have a routine. I work such a hostile variety of shifts coupled with my kids changing sports commitments. Every day is different. My adhd brain has a love/hate think for the inconsistency.

either game or sleep. depends if i'm closing or not lol

Cry

I still live at home with my family so I come home, go to my room undress and lay on my bed for 5 - 10 mins pondering what Iam doing with my life. Then change back into my pj's and either figure out what to cook for my family (my parents work odd shifts and my siblings aren't able to cook, they are kids) or if there is something cooked or bought, I ravage through. Finally watch TV and craft or play video games for as long as I can then I get my siblings to bed, then myself but I spend an hour or 2 on my phone, mostly tiktok, pinterest or listening to music before I really fall asleep.

I work am shifts and my husband works nights in a medical industry. I get to Say hi to my husband and kid. Change. My husband leaves for work. I settle our toddler down for a nap. Then I clean the house. Evenings outside. I go to bed when she does to wake up early. Simple and chill.

go in car after work sit there for like 5 mins playing music/texting drive home sit in drive way 5min then eat play videogames and sleep (im a closer)

I am a closer. I also work as a substitute teacher in the mornings during the week. Usually I scramble from school to work and try to find a parking spot before walking into whatever god-awful mess that awaits. I’m also a shift so I scurry trying to catch up all the things that have not been done all while trying to run breaks and count the counts until I finally leave work 30 minutes after I’m scheduled. I leave work with several lunch and breakfast items for the week along with a few drinks (because I can’t afford to buy Starbucks) and I usually stop and a convenient store for a couple shots and a beer. I get home and sit in the driveway for a few minutes and then head inside where my wife (also a teacher) has been working on school stuff for a few hours and I flurry about dropping stuff in the fridge and removing clothes to get comfy for a couple hours of brain dead activity. I wake up at 5 every morning and do it all again. It’s rough but I manage and I work at the Bucks 3 days a week after school.

Get home.

Eat something sometimes.

Usually don't bother to change outside of taking off my shoes and overshirt.

Play vidya and drink Cokes until I feel tired, usually around 2 or 3 in the morning.

Take my pants off and sleep.

Shower in the morning.

The hour-long walk home at night gives me enough time to have an existential crisis before I get home.

I’m an opener so I usually come home and make lunch, have my “come down” hit and watch some Netflix. Sometimes I try and go to the gym afterwards, or do yoga after lunch. Then I play video games and wait for my husband to get home. Lounge around before dinner and then eventually call it night.

since I work mornings I get home early (around 10am) and proceed to feed my cats, pickup my apartment, maybe even vacuum or anything like that before slumping onto my couch and attempting to drink/eat whatever I brought home

My dog greets me at the door with much excitement. I let her out to potty.
After that it depends on when my shift is. If I closed, I'm probably starting dinner if I'm the 1st person home or it's ready and eat with my spouse.
If I was in before 9am, I change and walk the dog. We usually go for 30-60 minutes. We get back, I'll have lunch. I usually scroll on the computer or read for a bit to digest, if I had a terrible night's sleep I'll nap. And then I take a spin class and maybe do some cross training. I throw the laundry in the washer before I jump on the bike, then into the dryer when I'm done.
Then I get dinner started, eat with my spouse. Go up and shower, then try to do yoga before I get into bed, then I play dumb games on my phone.

I'm exclusively an opener, and a natural night owl, so it normally goes like this:

Get home. Shower. Sleep. Adult responsibilities. Video games/anime/doom scrolling. Take a nap around 1AM.

If I have no where to go after I go home take a shower maybe chill for a bit drink a glass of wine if it was stressful and do chores/relax.
