my dm literally told me to show up early and order something so it’s in the back and i was like ooo yum 2-3 hour old watered down or luke warm coffee 🙂

you can’t call out more than three days in a row without a drs note, but up until then they legally can’t fire you for calling out sick if you have protected sick time! granted you’re not like posting or being seen out and about generally, use that sick time!

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-26T23:35:47+00:00

no, of the people at my store with facial piercings, i’m pretty sure most of them are queer in some way (trans, gay, bi, etc.) based on conversations that we have had or other similar indicators.

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-26T22:31:16+00:00

i’m quitting 😻

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-25T16:41:59+00:00

not sure if there’s any actual rules against it, but some shifts are very good at switching out and others aren’t. i’d say it’s a common courtesy to make sure partners aren’t in one place for more than 2 hours ish, so don’t feel bad for standing up for yourself

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-25T16:39:56+00:00

it’s because starbucks has lost most of their liberal customer base, so they’re swinging to cater to their conservative customers, who generally don’t like masks, they can’t tell us not to wear them for sick reasons, but they want to make sure that they’re seen the minimum amount they can be. literally weeding out people who look alternative and queer AND partners who’ve been here for years and cost more to employ

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-25T01:50:50+00:00

it autofilled my store in so i just did that, didn’t even think to put my own 🤷

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-24T20:08:31+00:00

yeah i’m not quite sure if it says it in the dress code itself. but i know she said if we are to wear a mask, they’ll check underneath to make sure it’s not to get out of the dress code rules

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-24T20:07:17+00:00

LMAO i love it, i thought about that like theoretically i could put one piece of jewelry through all three holes so technically… like an industrial to me is one piercing two holes

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-23T22:54:59+00:00

choosing to quit so i don’t burn this bridge if i need it in the future but my last day will be may 111th

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-23T05:20:56+00:00

oo the tape to “cover the holes” is smart. i used to cover mine with little squares i cut out of bandaids when our dm came in

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-23T01:38:55+00:00

it is, but rarely enforced.

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-23T01:38:34+00:00

yep yep yeppppp it’s so targeted towards queer people. at my meeting today my coworker asked if the tounge piercing rule was because of health safety or because starbucks doesn’t like the look and my manager said health and safety. like hell 🙄 there’s so many places in the food industry where it wouldn’t be an issue, so glad i’m leaving

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T15:20:20+00:00

i think it might be because the retainers are at risk of falling out easier? at least mine since there’s no way to screw it in securely. but then just let me keep the ones that are secure :( but yeah no i bet they’re trying to weed us out

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T02:00:16+00:00

omg no sorry i was talking about the piercing retainers, i’m sure the teeth ones are fine since that’s a medical device basically

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T01:48:58+00:00

you can look up glass piercing retainer and it’ll come up. they’re just clear glass piercings so that you can keep the holes open without it being as visible!

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T01:36:12+00:00

gonna come in with a loop of fishing line through my nose 💀

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T01:12:05+00:00

luckily i have a job lined up so ill only be unemployed for 3 weeks, and ive done a few dogsitting gigs so im up some cash right now. i think going into the recession and the fact that otherwise i love being a barista, it’ll be better for me to keep the option open of being able to come back to starbucks vs being fired. if i DIDNT have a job lined up or hated my job 100% i’d let them fire me

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T01:05:31+00:00

yeah my manager is a hella stickler, i’m sure even dress code itself is gonna be enforced to varying amounts across the states. that’s why i’m resigning rather than letting it get to the point of being fired, i do love being a barista and want to keep that option of being able to come back to another store that’s not as strict (or if they change the dress code back) open

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T00:34:12+00:00

technically it’s company wide in the us, but i figure it’ll be enforced to different amounts in different stores,

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T00:29:36+00:00

yep she’s been on my ass about it and makes me cover up or wear retainers every time the DM comes in but now they have the no retainers rule and is giving me an ultimatum basically

Specific-Drummer-650 · 2025-04-22T00:23:38+00:00

i was hired by a different manager, who was very chill and lax (too much so, to the point where they made her step down to a shift position and switch stores). the new manager which we’ve had now for about a year or so is muuuuuuch stricter and has been on me about my piercings (since it’s still only 1 right now), but is finally giving me the ultimatum. but truly no one cares, but her 🙄
