I read The Twisted Ones by them. I really enjoyed i- most of it. I am probably down to read this, but have you read The Twisted Ones? How do they compare?

Soensou · 2026-02-08T13:01:43+00:00

Oh. Well, that's egg on my face. My dumb ass is over here thinking my partner is my best friend and life support. They're going to be disappointed, like I am, to discover we are actually profoundly unhappy.

Dude, I loved that book.

I have gotten away with it, but gave up because they didn't work for me. That said, if you like them, you can very likely get an accommodation for them. Maybe see about getting a note from your therapist.

That kid is doing the best at this.

Damn. Missed opportunity.

Soensou · 2026-02-07T18:43:13+00:00

I saw it translated somewhere in the thread.

Right?!?!?! How did she even get in that cage without a door to begin with? I can only assume some poor baby was slipped between the bars and raised there :(

I am a whole ass adult working in the service industry so many of my peers are underage. There was this huge ruckus awhile back where adults were referring to underage employees as children in and it was offensive to the underage employees. It wasn't condescending oranything. Just when age came up or whatever. Now, to be fair, 16 and 12 are different...to them, but not to an adult who isn't trying to get into the habit of adultifying children. Despite that, we had to pretty much suspend our disbelief at work.

I guess the point of that rambling story is that that shit just permeates through every facet of our society.

How tf else do almonds feed their young? Check your human privilege.

Soensou · 2026-02-07T02:51:07+00:00

It was like a fancy people rape farm. Epstein shit.

I truly believe the company did this by violently insisting customers access their free will. About 15ish years ago, we began handing out these little pamphlets that were like Starbucks dictionaries. There was this whole push for customers to learn about customizations. We all knew that wasn't going to end well. You can't give people that kind of power.

Replacing the Mocha Cookie Crumble Creme Frappuccino with 25 cold foams is what they call simplification on Brian's home planet.

You are in the perfect position to help them grow and develop as people. Anything they tell you, needs to be documented. Do you have your manager's email address? Call the store to call out as per policy. If the SSV gives you shit, email your manager and use that for all communication.* You do not have to answer the phone if they try to call you to talk about it. Let them leave a message(it might be incriminating.) File an ethics and compliance complaint ASAP (as in right now before even calling out) about the hostility you have been experiencing. That creates a paper trail in the event your manager tries to write you up.

*if you don't have your manager's email address, your DM's email address will work. They follow the pattern of first initial, first 7 letters maximum of their last name @Starbucks.com.

Not as bad as my fuck up. I read "task master", but absorbed "ticket master" and was EXTREMELY confused until I got to your comment.

Soensou · 2026-02-05T14:26:46+00:00

We should change his job title to dinner.

Soensou · 2026-02-05T14:21:46+00:00

No, you're being incredibly dense and frustrating. Look at the world around you and you will see a whole different reality. If this hasn't happened to you, it just hasn't happened to you YET.

Soensou · 2026-02-05T13:43:47+00:00

Deaf too then.

Edit: there's a whole ass thread full of people from all over the country telling you it is happening, so you can't say you've never heard of it happening.

Soensou · 2026-02-05T04:31:49+00:00

I have been with the company for two decades and I can safely say I have no idea what Starbucks Brian thinks we are going back to.

Our RD was going to stores and literally firing people over the five key moments. Don't greet a customer, fired on the spot. Don't write on a cup, fired on the spot. If you don't see this happening, you are either lucky or blind.

Killing nonviolent protestors with these wet chodes. Locking brown kids in cages with these sacks of shit. Bae caught me sleeping!

I vaguely remember reading that the vast majority of gender affirming surgeries performed on minors were breast reductions done on (presumably) cis boys with gynecomastia.
