Totally not dystopian at all. Very normal. Please proceed.

maybe if I give stickers to our mobile guests they’ll be more understanding about us being 20 minutes behind in orders.

Used to hand out stickers at my store 3-4 years ago. It was a huge hit and we sorta became known for it! I personally really liked the little touch of detail and it was fun (:

we had these holographic smiley face stickers that i’d put on every drink and match the color to the vibe of the drink. it made me happier and the custies happier

I hope it’s a hit for us too! Hopefully customers notice!

I love handing out stickers! Unfortunately my coworkers act like it’s such a nuisance to slap a sticker on the cup before handing out & the customers seem to hate it also.

Buuuut our customer base is mostly made up of the older generation and sorority girls lol. We get yelled at a lot.

having to line up a bunch of stickers to rack up imaginary “connection” points with customers who do not respect us or give a fuck about us, for a company that does not respect us or give a fuck about us and abuses us, is incredibly dystopian and i’m sorry you couldn’t see that.

I feel the same way, but feeling enraged at the thought of putting a “thank you” sticker on a cup was making me absolutely miserable. The connection scores are incredibly stupid and I wish they’d go away…

Sigh… it’s not rage towards the stickers. It’s the fact that stickers are being used in hopes of racking up points for this imaginary BS system :(

I was surprised when I turned my head & saw them glued up against the counter like that. I thought it was funny so I took this photo. I’m just pasting them onto the cups. It’s not asking for much on my part

Right & that’s why I’m quitting

I told my SM I was gonna get a mustache and turn on the barista cam on and greet everyone that way
