I truly think the pay is gonna explode upwards here soon. With card tipping and wage increases in the foreseeable future, it may pay a livable wage. I am pro me. My store seems to be very anti union. We may be given a lot of treats just because we don’t unionize, which is wrong, but good for me personally. What I think the best plan of action for anybody in the position I believe a lot of us are in would be to voice our concerns. Share with sm, dm, and shifts with pull that getting the allotment of hours we request, isn’t really a request but rather a requirement for living. Big coffee is scared of big union, don’t be afraid to use your little leverage however you see fit.
Also, this job is terribly exhausting. If you ever see a better opportunity, LEAVE the right way. If it doesn’t workout, you can almost always find another spot at the siren.
