i was *what i thought to be* on my way to becoming a trainer after working towards it for around 7 months. my manager had told me multiple times that she was working on it but never got me the proper training. unbeknownst to me, she had meeting with all of the ssv’s, and 3 out of the 5 (whom i’d never worked with in my time there) told her that i wasn’t fit to become a trainer. i found this out through one of the two who had vouched for me, and after talking with my manager and realizing that she wasn’t going to make any sort of move to begin training, i decided to put in my two weeks. she berated me about the fact that “she was trusting me take up a trainer position” even though she had said to my face that it wasn’t going to happen. she kept scheduling me past the date that i had set for my time there to end, and would mark every day that i didn’t show up as a no call no show even though i didn’t work for the company anymore. let’s just say that according to her, i won’t be working for another store any time soon.

Fair enough! I just don’t particularly.. want to give a whole letter as a notice like i’ve done for previous jobs since the treatment I receive from them is god awful. I honestly thought about just a “two days” notice 😭

I wouldn't recommend texting it as all the store I've worked at don't consider texts as formal store communication. If you plan on working at Starbucks ever again, they could hold it against you if they wanted. 😔

Yeah I felt it was really unprofessional. Like I wish he would’ve said what that person typed out because there’s no way I could’ve assumed he felt that way. It just instills even more that I’m just a number to be replaced… which is fine… but I hate how Starbucks tries to be like a locally owned coffeehouse with good morals and instills humanity when it totally isn’t
