Question: How do y’all distress after rude customers? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by ushijeebies
I’ve only been working at starbs for about 4 months now and today was probably my worst experience. I’m a genuinely sweet person and I love interacting with people so I get out on Dto/ Dtr a lot but today I got 2 SUPER rude and lowkey racist customers back to back to the point where I almost cried when the next car pulled up. I just wanted to know how y’all go about calming down after interactions like these.

I’ve definitely used the ice excuse one too many times.

A nice little cry in the break room, but honestly just reminding myself that some people are going to be rude and angry no matter how nice you are to them

I have words of affirmation and a lot of reminding myself that people just suck.

depends on the day. usually it's just bitching about said interaction with coworkers until feeling better, or I just take a impromptu 10 and have a mini breakdown in the back

Laugh, because if I don’t I’ll cry

usually i just ask someone to go over and take the order for me while i chill for a little bit but if that’s not an option and im stuck, i tell the person at the speaker to hold on a second and decompress where i am.
