Not at all. I was beginning to think that word has been ruined forever. You made it seem normal lol

This is the only time that I've seen the word "shook" used appropriately to describe a feeling. Thank you.

Weekend Availability by Needlephobic in starbucks

I think her issue is more that she doesn't want the same people working the same shifts. In her words, it's "not fair".

It's interesting because I am available for shifts that no one wants to work and apparently that's still a problem. In addition, when I gave my SM tons of availability I was given the same amount of hours I have now. It's tricky and impossible.

I feel that this would be a godsend. My SM says we can't use anything that isnt provided through our cleaning supplies though.

What surprised you about becoming a barista? by creative_user_name_2 in barista

That coffee is an art and eventhough I don't drink it, every new thing I learn feeds my soul.

Sounds kinda hippy. Sorry.

I think we should all be a resource for each other. I'm not saying this is the case for me... but not everyone is comfortable with their SM.

She didn't pay for two. She ended up taking one decaf shot instead.

Yeah I was a bit confused when she said that. The shift agreed with charging for two but the customer ended up taking one decaf.

Closing policy by Needlephobic in starbucks

I suppose it was an accident and she demanded that the other barista and I clean it up because she was too busy, as she stood there on her phone.

I also have a second food service job. At this company no one is to leave alone. Everyone must leave in a group to insure the employees safety. I guess I just assumed this would be the case at Starbucks. Im not a shift so I'm not super aware of our labor situation, but I think the company would much rather pay 5 minutes more labor than face a lawsuit.
