A long rant (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Shoddy-Trainer-8051
I’ve only been working for Starbucks for 6 months now and I’ve already dealt with so much shit and worked myself to the bone for them-
I’ve been sexually harassed by a partner who even after coaching still keeps calling me pet names and saying inappropriate things.
The same partner then gave me a lot of attitude, some bordering on violent, others embarrassing as they snapped at me in front of customers. One clean play shift they triggered my PTSD on the floor and I had a severe panic attack I couldn’t do anything about because we were the only two people on the floor that day.
I’ve reported every occurrence to my manager but over a month later and everything is the same. Finally now the new district manager is coming in to talk and she’s getting an earful because on top of that, my manager doesn’t have my back or take me seriously, as often as I ask for more hours, I never get them but his favorite employee that he clearly wants to sleep with (even though he has a long term girlfriend) gets her full 34 hours a week lucky her. I’m tired of working my ass off, I’ve even done a double for these assholes and I feel left out, alienated and hurt. I feel bad but that’s it, I am restricting my availability and telling the district manager everything.

A small update: I’ve escalated the situation, taken things into my own hands, contacted the district manager and am writing ethics a very long email

Please reach out to ethics and compliance. They get things done quickly. This should not be happening. https://businessconduct.eawebline.com.
Also, if you have the resources I would reach out to an attorney in regards to this person

Holy cow document everything that’s occurred in writing, NOW, in an email, cc EVERYONE. Consult an attorney. Now. Edit: a documented paper trail or electronic one is vital should you A: decide to pursue legal action or b, quit/get let go of. This is really vital. This should not be happening to you. Period.
