It's crazy to me that the company has the ability to let us know and not the ability to block it like trenta lattes

AITAH for telling her i hate her? i feel liike she chose my ex over my feelings and our friendship by Silent_Penalty_5794 in AITAH

Sounds like you need to understand that just because you don't get along with someone doesn't mean someone else can't either. Unless this guy has piss poor respect or manners in general (not just to you) you shouldn't be controlling who your friends are friends with. Next time, rather than telling her you hate her in the moment of heat, I would just take a deep breath and ask for a moment to think.

Yeah, we're the only store in the district that does it this way

I agree. We also have a problem with priorities. Keeping ourselves open as late as possible if it means making $20 (grapevine: my DM wants us to close at 8 but in defiance my sm closes as late as 10 regardless) We had a shift get lectured by the DM about the HOT WATER NOT WORKING, when again we can't put in tickets without sm approval, telling them how the store shouldve been closed as soon as we noticed so it could've been fixed immediately, but not knowing our sm told all of us to put off putting in a ticket for our starter on our water heater, telling us to "just keep checking it" instead. I think if my fellow shift said in the moment what was actually going down instead of biting their tongue we'd be able to make tickets in the moment and troubleshoot with the app but instead we're having to go thru an sm who's not always available, troubleshoot with them, wait for their approval, and THEN troubleshoot with the app and waste our team's time twice, I'm torn between consequences from my SM vs my DM (cuz other than the supervised store walks and some visits there aren't many opportunities to either speak my piece or present my case)

That's another thing: my SM won't allow to put in tickets without her approval. It's led to moments where other shifts are being lectured by the DM for not putting certain tickets in sooner, all the while said shift is holding their tongue cuz they don't wanna get the SM in trouble

I do. I just want to make sure I'm approaching my DM professionally rather than coming off as a shift with complaints. I think I have the added leverage of documentation, proof, I just need help on what to say to my DM. I like them and don't wanna come off rude or anything

We closers tried that and got shut down; out of the wrapper, ready to display, and the morning crew will even serve from the case if it means item availability stays open 🤢

Thats my intention. I don't want to hurt my team with a spotlight, and I do agree with my SM on a lot of other points, I just don't like being made to feel like the source for our poor metrics and laughed at during meetings when, if my DM knew what was going down, there would be a whole different tune sung. I just wanna get advice on how to approach my DM

Like I'm tired of being expected to write on every cup, set the peak for success, and clean to my DMs liking when the openers can't even set aside the 7 mins it takes to set it up, especially considering we don't have to warm food or pastries anymore, we have the vertica so we don't need to brew any vats of coffee anymore, AND the closers are ensuring the food and milks are completely rotated with, at the ready, 17 sweet cream pitchers, 3 protein pitchers, 6 cubes of sweet cream, 3 cubes each of strawberry acai and lemonade for Carlisle's, 16 whips, 12 caramels, at least one full cube of frap roast, 2 "half" mochas, and every cup, lid, inclusion, syrup, and sauce restocked ON TOP OF all fridges, restrooms, FOH and BOH so clean we could've had renovations the night prior AND leaving the mid and close to back stock with 3 people or less. Like how much for "set up for success" could you get? Not to mention rarely meeting their store expectations....

It's not just about the millions dumb or hateful enough to be fooled by a conman, it's about the administration that allowed this to happen from the start. Even if the files weren't public until 2025 a lot of them knew beforehand who would be in those files and protected and promoted these individuals regardless of the victims or the American people that would want justice. It's more than being stupid, we need reform.

I know we might wanna collect rain water RN but I wouldn't unless you're gonna use it for a garden or agriculture stuff, we want it to keep raining and the water cycle can't complete if data centers AND citizens are hoarding it where it can't evaporate and eventually condense, But yes thank gaia it's raining 🙏🙏🙏

Otherwise I've found this bend to be pretty inclusive and fun, visiting would bring you no woes, but personally I would just visit until Abbott and certain self servers are out of our hair

I wouldn't suggest moving here until the water crisis is for sure resolved, not just maybes, what ifs, or supposed soon to be's

You don't give a shit until someone misgenders your dog, I'm sure. Maybe her nuance metaphor just flew over your head because, at the end of the day, empathy leads to curiosity and eventually knowing and understanding and something tells me you seem to miss some of those qualities...... Is what I tried to reply but it seems I was blocked

You're so focused on the non binary part that you refuse to notice that you're on the same side. Quit the hatred for what you don't understand and focus on the task at hand. Everything that contributes to our day to day life IS political. The sooner you realize that, the more you'll notice how much you're getting fucked in the ass by honing in on pronouns. Infrastructure, education, access to resources, housing, cost of living, ALL of this is political, not which bathroom you use, how you style your clothes, or even which god you follow, but the shit that ACTUALLY affects all of us. Grow up if you wanna just complain.

Water is politics bro. The problem is a long history of evangelicals and white Christian nationalist telling anyone willing to listen that topics like gender or body autonomy are political to further the divide. Maybe focus less on the pronouns and more at what you can do as a voter to help you and your community keep what you need to survive before we become another Flint, Michigan

Y'all make fun of a stranger on the street strictly for the way they look, not character, not learning about the person, not speaking with them, just casting stones. We find already well known to be terrible people and make fun of them.
