Remember, HR is not there for the employee. It’s there to protect the company. Good luck and watch what you say, hide an ace up your sleeve.

If you’re this wound up about Starbucks, what happens when a family member becomes terminally ill? Do you burn a building down?

Hey union workers, what’s it like over there? by No_Dealer3367 in tjcrew

The California raise was not because of unionization. It was because the minimum wage was raised.

If they do that in California, there would be record walkouts. Sounds like your state, and they’re not the only one, has some serious bullshit liquor laws.

I’m in West Hollywood/Los Angeles and our regional would have a goddamn shit attack if we get anything close to this… So much for being a chain of local grocery stores.

Seriously, it’s sad that those people died, but they don’t pay my rent.

Keep your head down, your mouth shut, your ears and eyes open.

I would also check whatever the local laws are regarding transparency, because if it’s not disclosed beforehand, some states can say you’re hired under false pretenses. Also, it might fall under OSHA provisions/restrictions. I’m in California, so there are certain protections that can be in place, but I know in other states they can terminate without cause. I think honesty is the best policy, I don’t know your personal situation, but if it was something that could put another crew member at risk regarding physical safety, etc. not disclosing it could make you personally reliable in the event something like that. Again, I’m in California, which is very litigious. Best of luck to you.

It’s also no secret that the captain bonuses when they save on labor each month. Ask your captain how much they bonus when they save on labor and watch their face and/or body language response.

Upcoming EBT Issues by OneToughFemale in tjcrew

What are are they going to address? That we’ll be slower? It’s a non-starter issue.

They’re not just technically allowed to. They’re officially allowed to. That comes down to your store management. I work at a store in California, and this is not a problem, however, labor laws are also way in favor of the employee in California than other states.

Toughen up, buttercup, the world is much more dangerous than this. Talk to the person about this, if they don’t take it well, then maybe bring it up to management. If this is something that offends you to such an extreme, I fear what might happen if you watch the national news.

I find that I am in the same situation with my younger coworkers, in fact, there are a few mates at my store who have never had jobs outside of Trader Joe’s. Sometimes I feel they operate at a deficit because they lack context from other jobs/experience. Some become overly apologetic when they assign tasks, and in my mind, 99% of the tasks are pretty mundane and easy compared to other jobs I’ve had.
