both of the stores around us are not able to open bc their power is out so we are struggling. especially with fall launch being yesterday. We are also running out on everything rn and we have the dm here for an observation. Everyone is taking the wrong drinks for mobiles and then asking when everything is gonna be done when our cafe is packed

DM needs to get their ass behind the counter. Big hugs and good luck to you.

The dm just stood in the way being rude as hell to my store manager while the regional manager was trying to help us by wiping down the counters and asking us what can she do to not be in the way

Get your RMs info and contact them directly. Tell them about how negative of an experience you had today BECAUSE of your DM and how she was a detriment to your partner experience today. Specifically how your SM and RM were being positive and helpful while your DM was not.

Hopefully the regional manager gets on your DM's case. Our DM noticed we were struggling and asked what was up. And I told them two people still hasn't come in for their shifts. The DM came and did CS. Brewed coffees, changed a trash while the SM called the partners that were late, then helped out bar. Though or DM started their career at Starbucks as a Barista.

Half of the baristas/ssv have been here longer than our dm or even out rm and they’re all so pissy that they wouldn’t help

I don't blame them!

Bro I wish our dm was complaining about bees and then started getting mad at our sm bc of it

It's probably too late now, but my FAVORITE thing is to redirect angry customers to my DM. Like "sorry, we wanted to help the wait by limiting orders to just in store, but unfortunately MY DM OVER THERE said no. You can talk to him about that!"

I’ll remember that for next time :)

having dms behind the counter sucks. ours got in the way and messed up the brewing cycle

Ours has gotten back there and it's been a help. They did work their way up from being a barista, so that could be a difference.

Since the other stores are closed you should ask the DM if you could take product from them so you don’t run out.

They’re out of the white mocha which is really what is urgent

Last time our store closed for flooding we all got sent to the closest store open to help them out, because we knew they would get slammed if we're closed. Those stores should've sent some people.

They did but they weren’t that much of help we’re in the process of hiring morning ppl but we literally have 4 ppl at night running the store 1 to run breaks, 1 solo bar, cs (which usually gets taken away bc we need help), and then warming :/
