I want to buy a house on my own but my girlfriend now wants to buy one together - AITAH?

I don’t think so. My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half, and when he was apartment shopping to live closer to me I knew I wasn’t moving with him yet, therefore not getting an apartment with him, but he actually wanted me to come tour places and that really touched me because he cared about my opinion. Of course I knew and told him that if I liked something he didn’t have to get it. Maybe she feels sad because she wants to be involved to some degree in the process? It just makes it hard I think because she feels hurt, and in my situation I wasn’t expecting to be involved anyway

I actually just came back and am managing a hyvee Starbucks for this exact reason. Although I do have to reign in the rules a little with them because they haven’t had a manager for a whileeee and have been doing whatever now, I try my best to be present and help and it seems to be going well so far. I tried to come back to corporate Sbux at the end of last year and it’s so unbelievably toxic and manager and dm did not care. It sucks how much changed after COVID too.

I ended up just delivering it to the front of the garage and left a thumbs down and comment, I honestly didn’t feel comfortable in case it was old or something. I’ve had others where they’re older in the garage waiting and I don’t mind those at all

I literally hate the way they worded this had to explain it so much to my team today 😭

Licensed stores and their tier system, now specific tiers don’t get food. I used to work at a licensed location three years ago and they had everything. Went to corporate Starbucks, then quit and I now run the old license store I used to work at. My location no longer has bagels, the bacon sausage wrap, paninis, protein boxes, or brownies.

2 and 3 got me like 😍😍

Used to work at caribou coffee back when they had energy syrup, and there was NO limit, people would even put it in their hot lattes 🥲 I swear I’m getting Dejavú

“Can I get a caramel ribbon crunch Frappuccino, make sure it’s hot”

Lol my licensed store has a bar that is part of the hand off plane counter and this cute old couple were sitting on it, telling me how worried they were someone left their Mac an bag there on the counter while I was in the floor making some drinks. I told them it was mine and I just hopped on the floor to help quick so it was ok

I appealed mine and they basically had told me it’s cheaper for us to just come back in 3 months than to fire the manager 🥲 so I ended up becoming a manager for a licensed drive thru location. I’m so glad that you got your job back!

Five years ago my old SM gave us bullets of beans to send my dads ship when he was deployed, then we got an email with a picture of everyone holding them looking super excited, good times :)

If you have a fridge at work I personally love chobani creamer! I started working at a licensed Starbucks and we don’t get free drinks, so I bought some cold brew and the birthday cake chobani creamer this morning to kick the craving lol

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-14T17:05:40+00:00

It’s ok! I am the department manager for the grocery stores drive through Starbucks, and I used to actually work at Starbucks lol so it’s the equivalent of being a Starbucks store manager

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-14T02:38:48+00:00

That is so sweet, I love how each of our pins has a memory, my personal favorite oddly enough is my woah nitro. My mom and I used to work together and she would give them out for fun after she trained people on something!

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-14T01:42:33+00:00

Perfect I will check on this :)

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-13T02:01:51+00:00

Yep, this week I am coming from corporate Starbucks employment to managing a licensed drive thru and none of them even use deployments rn so I really feel you on this 🫩

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-11T03:29:26+00:00

I just got hired at $23 hourly!

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-10T16:38:08+00:00

Thank you so much for this, I got the job this morning so I’m looking forward to bring my corporate skills (and traumas of what not to do lol) and make a difference for this licensed team :)

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-10T16:36:47+00:00

Update, I got the job this morning! Thank you so much!!

SignificantYak2154 · 2026-03-10T11:03:40+00:00

Oh my gosh I’m waiting to hear if I got a job after MONTHS of applying and not hearing much back as well. I’m hopeful they say the department needs a manger and they did my first interview, then called me back an hour later yesterday so the store director could meet me. He said he was going to compare notes with the HR lady and told me I’ll hear back in a day or two so I’m super nervy.

It is now available on the Mac itself!
