Want to change availability, worried about my SM not liking it (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by dontcry2022
I open regularly and as much as I enjoy it, I don't think it's a good fit for me. I don't have the sleep schedule for it and I don't have interest in changing my sleep schedule, I'm happily a night owl.

I would like to change my availability to where I could come in at 6am

I am worried since I am one of my store's only regular openers, that my SM will not be happy with this. I'm worried I'll lose my job bc I suddenly won't be meeting the store's needs

Are these fears valid?

I became "the opener". Why, I have no clue. I never said I wanted to only open, just that I was available to.
After a few months I finally told the SM that it was severely damaging my mental health. I cannot handle getting up at 330am every day. I felt like I was losing my mind, genuinely losing my mind. So they were happy to adjust the schedule for me. I say try it. They can't fire you just because you don't want to open all the time.
It took a month for the schedule to reflect the change but it did happen. So I say go for it! Worst case scenario you still open but only 1 or 2 days.
