Wanting to Quit (a short rant) (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by mod_mad
I'm usually a lurker here and I don't really post but recently I've been wanting to quit. It's a little bit of weird timing though and I literally just came back from LOA due to a back injury.

While I was out (which was a little over a months time) they overhauled our store management and we lost half our work staff due to the new manager not being the most respectful. He doesn't respect scheduling and is a little cut/dry. This is not my primary job, I'm part-time and work a full office week so typically I'm a weekend closer only. I've had to specify this multiple times and yet I'm still having issues. I also recently had an incident at work where I did have a panic attack (they're super rare for me so it was a surprise). The manager didn't handle it well and basically told me "this job is stressful you just have to get over it". I don't have accommodation for this (again extremely rare occurrence for me) but I did not appreciate the way he handled it.

I've never straight up QUIT a job before. I've usually given a 2 weeks notice but the amount of anxiety I have about this job now is honestly a little too much and not worth my time. I've debated no-call no-showing and just never going back. Half of my co-workers thought I had quit already due to me being gone during my LOA because management didn't tell anyone I was going to be out.

I guess by the end of this I'm asking how do I just leave. I don't want two weeks I just want to be done. This company has honestly been the worst place I've ever worked and I've worked a lot of retail. My co-workers are great, but honestly bad managers ruin it for everyone.
