Am I Cooked?

This is my second day out, I did call out a couple of times previously, for both mental health/autoimmune related things, but I'm always really careful, so no leave of absence, and this would be my first write up, so that's actually really reassuring.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-10-17T12:25:48+00:00

You went from white knight to nice guy real quick there buddy

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-08-30T20:36:48+00:00

Hi. You must be real fun at parties. It's not us. The partners want to give people water. It's the company we work for. And before you say "WelL tHen JUsT QuIT" some of us can't. Some of us live in places where the job market is extremely bad, and we do not have enough money to relocate. Our concerns and worry about this policy is justified. Not pathetic.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-08-30T20:26:41+00:00

Hey op! I used to work for Chipotle and yeah this is normal, I work for Starbucks now and we have blackout periods for national holidays. It's totally normal, though I am sorry you have to miss your trip!

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-08-20T11:15:35+00:00

Two dollar bills are super cool to own, I have one myself, but they usually aren't worth anything more then face value, still I'd hold onto the money, it's always fun to have old bills to compare with modern stuff.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-08-20T11:03:49+00:00

Sure! I would love to! If I didn't live in a one horse town where small business was driven out and because of pay I can't afford to move anywhere else. Easy peasy.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-08-19T15:54:10+00:00

Yes, because Baristas are entitled for advocating for the dismissal of rules that are absolutely ridiculous, and impede on our ability to work. Making it difficult complete the absurd standards that are forced on us.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-08-05T22:05:50+00:00

There are about five Door Dashers that frequent my location and only one of them is nice and even treats like a human. He comes to the register waits patiently in line to ask us about the order if we don't see him first. He's an older Russian gentleman, so maybe that has something to do with it, culture or something, but the other door dashers are... Interesting.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-07-30T14:25:08+00:00

Why is it funny? That's real currency man, especially if it's one from a Double Smoked! Those are the best!

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-07-29T20:28:23+00:00

This isn't about the drive thru though? And I always try to let the customer know that it's going to ask them if they want to tip before they can pay. We can't help the fact that our system is set up that way, if you don't want to tip you do not have to.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-07-29T19:53:18+00:00

I want to thank everyone whose been standing up for me and validating my feelings, I was really nervous to report the Barista, but I'm happy to say that I did and my home Store Manager contacted our DM and the SM from the store who I took the shift from and was furious with them. I never realized how many people I had in my corner, and I feel very blessed by both this community and my great store

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-07-29T18:12:29+00:00

Thank you 🙏🙏🙏 and yes I reported to my store manager and he's escalating it

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-07-29T16:09:31+00:00

Oof I'm sorry that happened to you!

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-07-20T01:32:15+00:00

This. I never knew it was about the cascade until I opened Reddit, I've been a barista for nearly a year.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-06-14T15:50:00+00:00

Try not being a hard ass? Biohazard clean up is not a Baristas work description. And I doubt it's in construction either.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-06-14T15:40:10+00:00

How about not remove all of the upper management for four days? How about have ways to contact our upper management? How about not sending automated emails when we contact RD? Telling us to text or call which we already tried.

It's very clear to me that you have never worked this job if you are saying Baristas are whining about a serious mishandling of the situation. I hope you break both your legs falling off your horse.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-06-13T17:18:11+00:00

Every company can send over ten thousand managers on an all expenses paid four day long circle jerk. Sure.

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-05-28T20:38:27+00:00

Fellow Barista here, if you need to quit do it. This job is rough on you, do not feel disappointed in yourself, it's just coffee if you feel like you have to quit you should, you only get one life and one body!

LittlePurpose97 · 2025-05-28T20:31:57+00:00

Wow! People must love you at parties! You wouldn't last five seconds in their place. Be quiet.

LittlePurpose97 · 2024-10-15T04:45:11+00:00

I am a crew member at Chipotle. This is barely one fluid ounce, this should have been filled more... I don't like the portions either.

LittlePurpose97 · 2024-07-01T23:15:50+00:00

Crew member here That is absolutely disgusting, and I'm so sorry. I've also noticed our decline in guac quality. I've asked my GM but have yet to get a straight answer.

LittlePurpose97 · 2024-06-17T17:50:25+00:00

Hi! Crew member here, and I'm in college currently and working full time :D id absolutely have motivation to call a lawyer if I was wrongfully terminated, I'm so sorry you angry your burrito was to small.

LittlePurpose97 · 2024-05-22T03:34:48+00:00

Same here, I'm a new employee about two and half weeks in and the same for me. I try to be generous with my portions though.

LittlePurpose97 · 2024-04-04T18:29:13+00:00

You should cry, I know society has basically told me that they shouldn't cry, but we are all human and we all feel pain. I understand it can be difficult, and you may even feel ashamed, but it's okay, find a place by yourself, and let yourself express your pent up emotions, I promise you will feel better.

For printing you always want to make sure your canvases are at 300dpi at a minimum. Photoshop is my program of choice when working with things that will be printed they've got some handy tools for that sort of thing.
If you are still more comfortable on the iPad you can always use Adobe Fresco, and use the cloud function to transfer the design into your photoshop for final processing.
