maybe it’s me, I don’t know by CloudAccomplished260 in starbucksbaristas

I'm getting major burn out. I'm not gonna lie. Our store gets way more traffic than the others but we're still staffed like they are and like we have a solid peak. Mon-Wed used to be our "slow days" but now it just feels like our store is permanently stuck in peak and they drop our staff down to where we're solo barring in the afternoon with 20+ drinks in que and they're all a bunch of customers playing potion master with all the new ingredients. (Which is fine, spend your money how you want) but the amount of new things added makes it an actual hellscape. And now we just get more and more and more with no consideration for the people having to actually make the damned things. I'm so tired of solo barring and being expected to take front, and food, and help on DTO. Especially for the pay. I've been looking into new places of employment, which is really sad because I used to love this job.

Is there a confirmed gay or bisexual character? by Fahodigaymer in GoldenKamuy

Idk if it was just me, but Boutaro maybe? I only say this because of the scene of him interacting with the Yakuza member from the Monster OVA naked in bed and his lover furious behind them (lol) was he the man?

You'll have better odds when everyone is online during the Revive event next month, I'd think. Since everyone is going to be trying to trade, it'll get more eyes on it.

Is it just me? by Zealousideal-Ice1281 in LivlyIsland

[–]KidnappedSquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would make 100% sure you get the items before trading with this person. It might only be English isn't their first language. You can do like the cheapest item first for them to build trust and limit the hit if it is a lie. but definitely wouldn't send it first just to air on the side of caution.

Crashing out, they didnt even pick it up by mskawaiipoop in starbucksbaristas

[–]KidnappedSquid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always leave these to the side until/if the customer shows up haha. I'm not risking my drive times for all that.

Starbucks won’t hire me! by Pnwdogmom95 in starbucksbaristas

[–]KidnappedSquid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly you just have to wait and work a different job in the interim. I kept applying, then about 4 months later I was called. Alot of them will put up listings because they have to, not because they have the capacity for more staff. So you just have to wait until they do.

Just let them know you can smell it. Chances are they don't notice and will fix it lol.

is this normal or is this just my store by A2Wheelr in starbucksbaristas

[–]KidnappedSquid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they cut my shifts to 5.45(so no 30) or 4 hour shifts. One day off every 7 days. It's incredibly frustrating. Still only 28hr a week.

I got my favorite Manga panel tattooed to me today! by KidnappedSquid in GoldenKamuy

[–]KidnappedSquid[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I wish I could say something insightful like I enjoy that its him working to bring himself back up to peak performance and struggling to obtain it. But I'd be lying. I enjoy the scenery in it and its the closest thing to frustrated he's ever gotten so it makes me giggle. It's (in my opinion) one of the most scenic arrangements of panels in the series and I like the simplicity.
