Drained but trying my best (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by SortaSketchyNDed
I’m very drained and tired from this week’s shifts. Black Friday, the day before, AND the day of Thanksgiving, everything. I’ve barely had a day or two off. Constantly asked if I could come in. I wanna call out sometime soon but I’m afraid that if I do, I’m gonna get looked down at or told off.
Any of my other baristas feeling this way? Does it get better?

Edit: Rested up those days!!!

Take time and prioritize yourself. Learn to say no. Your health, mental and physical, is the most important thing and this is a thankless company that will run you ragged unless you set up boundaries.

You NEED a day or two off. It's important to rest and recharge. Seriously. Prioritize yourself and your mental/physical health
