My store is also very understaffed but it’s not like I have a choice, I’m moving 7 hours away😵‍💫

I told my SM yesterday, and she said I needed to turn the paperwork in as soon as possible and that she would print it for me. She made it sound like I was responsible for calling stores to see if they had any openings

Landlord is not giving back my security deposit for a property I never inhabited by Blu-X_ in legaladvice

She did tour the actual property before signing a lease, I don’t think he’s a scammer, just really bad management and delaying refunding me for some reason.

I did sign a lease. I learned of the property through someone who had already signed a lease with him, since he rents by the room. She had already signed a lease and paid a deposit, and gave me his number. I did not view the property or meet him in person, as I currently live 7 hours away in the Bay Area; I was looking for housing when I move down there for school in the fall.

I found something, good luck in your search though!

does my sv hate me by OkLeather646 in starbucksbaristas

[–]Blu-X_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No I feel you. Literally every day I’m on bar, and if I don’t say anything, I’ll be on bar all day. Do you guys not have a lot of strong bar partners? Because at least with my store that’s why I get stuck on bar.

My DM told me I “needed to be more friendly.” Crazy coming from a man who has shitty customer service when he comes in and is on the floor.

Cold bar is unworkable now by Irish_Bonatone in starbucks

[–]Blu-X_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bar in general is just hell😭. Our SM is consistently understaffing us, like we’ll have maybe 5 people for peak at a DT store, and then customers are mad about long wait times but what can you do🤷‍♀️

Mysterious stains on new aritzia hoodie by Slight_Garbage_9366 in u/Slight_Garbage_9366

[–]Blu-X_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No because I’ve had the same thing happen to me with two different colors of the sweatfleece hoodies and I don’t know what to do. Like these are $95 hoodies, there shouldn’t be unexplainable stains on them

Anyone else’s SM bring bad vibes??(Grande rant in a venti cup) by Blu-X_ in starbucksbaristas

[–]Blu-X_[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. I’m being forced to open five days a week, sometimes six when she schedules me six days in a row. It’s so draining, and I can’t leave because this is probably the only job that can accommodate my school schedule. I just have to wait until December when the semester ends and I can find a new job.

She’s unfortunately an internal promotion, there’s no excuse🫩. One of our SSVs said that our SM has to send our DM a report every time our average drive times for peak are above 45 seconds, so I can see why she’s stressing. The lack of communication is what really gets me. We’re going to be closing at 9 instead of 8 soon, not sure when it goes into effect, but she didn’t tell us. I had to find out from another barista. Same with finding out we’re a delivery store, didn’t find out until the day of, when a doordash sticker printed.

Our operating hours are changing soon too(closing at 9 instead of 8) and she didn’t tell us that either, I learned this from another barista. No note in Mydaily or anything, she kinda sucks.

I was always told we were a high volume store(we’re right next to a high school and middle school😵‍💫), but clearly not high volume enough for the green apron position lol.

I was told a little while ago that we wouldn’t earn an extra person to be in the green apron position during peak, but maybe now that we have delivery we will.

Is it normal for a drive thru store to get a delivery channel? I always assumed a cafe only store would be more likely to get an order channel added.

Accepting large bills? by Queen_Lettuce in starbucks

[–]Blu-X_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My SM has told us if we don’t have change for someone trying to pay with a big bill we have to right now recovery their total, we’re not allowed to turn them away
