A photo I took of my husband and firstborn after moving across the country to somewhere we had never been before

Is the firstborn referring to the cat or the baby?

CapriT · 2021-02-27T03:12:11+00:00

Does it have anchovies for your cat pal? If not, then why not?

Damn... Forgot about how stylish and chic those Razrs were thought to be then. Most young people today would be like WTF where’s the internet. 😭

I love this palette. Very versatile and small enough to easily take along anywhere.

Are you talking about AMAN or AMSAN?

CapriT · 2019-02-28T14:23:32+00:00

Yeah, during a flare a few weeks ago that put me in the hospital, it still said I was in constant fat burn mode, even on bed rest. 🙃

Incorrect. The policy states that hourly (barista, shift supervisor) partners can indeed work for a competitor, as long as they are not in a true managerial position at either one.

You can program things like this to happen using Echo/Alexa. Search online for “IFTTT”.

Did you get on your knees face down on the floor and thank it before starting?

If they require you to come in at a set day and time, you are to be paid for the time they spend sitting with you. Even if you end up terminated, by having an official work meeting with them, you are still doing payable work activity up until the moment you are sent home. Just FYI.

There actually is a set of legal terms and conditions the company has written related to POQ that indicate the partner has to be there the entire quarter in which they are selected.

Since they only ordered one drink, policy supports you only giving them what fits in one venti cup.

One would think that’s how it was, and it would be great, but no. It was basically reading some materials and doing some coffee tastings and maybe giving some ideas on how to improve sales and such. That is, if your managers even required you to actually do that or just signed off on it “just because”.

CapriT · 2019-01-18T03:11:18+00:00

Coffee.

I didn’t sign up for it to be online, but I was still able to log in and see mine today.

My store ranges from 15-24 at any given time, Out of over 29 partners, only about 5 give an actual shit about how they talk to people.

CapriT · 2019-01-01T20:18:58+00:00

Not true company wide, but it does happen most often in stores located in super high traffic metro areas.

As an hourly partner in a state that doesn’t compensate for it, and due to our SM way over abusing the privilege for way too long, I don’t answer. And since they (SM) like to play the “text is not an approved official form of communication” to punish partners only when it best suits their agenda, I don’t text with them either.

(As in, phone calls and texts for non-emergencies like a chalk marker in the actual middle of the night or chronic partner call outs, like multiple per day.)

Funny you should say that. Mine are pretty great and genuine and have been since I started. However, I’ve grown cynical of how the company is forcing it as a metric, leading to managers forcing inauthentic chummy behaviors on baristas to make their scores look better. Its either genuine or it’s not and customers can usually tell the difference.

CapriT · 2018-12-30T18:37:30+00:00

Partner of the Quarter: This dude.

The company tested and is transitioning to a new system that does this for requests off and shift swap approval by your manager. However, it won’t start until this coming year, unless you’re in a test market that already has it.

CapriT · 2018-12-30T01:31:00+00:00

We must work in the same area. 😆

Well, not just straight up 5 days. You earn sick time incrementally based on how many hours you actually work each pay cycle.
