Lol yeah at that point you can say I legally do not have to work because I do not feel safe. Then fill out an incident report so you have a paper trail.

Hope everyone is okay! I’m sure that could’ve been pretty scary, but I also am just not in an area that gets tornadoes so I don’t know how common this is for you.

thank u !! Yeah no worries we were all ok. I live in a pretty tornado-y area but it still gets pretty scary sometimes haha
Firm-Ant76843 points7m ago
Of course! Glad everyone’s okay and equally as glad that I don’t live in a tornado-y area

I remember people doing that and then getting mad they couldn’t leave when the weather got worse. Like, babes, no one forced you to come and get stuck here for some bean juice.

Not at Starbucks but when I worked at Coldstone way back when it was crazy popular people wouldn't leave during a tornado so we told everyone we were going to the back away from the giant window and anyone could join us. Only one dad and his kid came back. What no one knew was we kept ice cream and brownies in the back and we let the kid go to town on whatever he wanted for following the rules
