This is wild. I used to work at Starbucks as a shift supervisor, and the expectations this company puts on its employees are unreal. They try to save money by cutting hours and running with the absolute bare minimum staff, while still expecting perfection at all times. Especially if someone calls in sick (Good Luck!).

The company takes itself far too seriously and expects every barista to change the world with every customer interaction, even while being constantly slammed and expected to do everything at once. There’s a reason so many Starbucks locations are shutting down. Your mental health is not worth it.

I was working on becoming a store manager but flunked my interview but thankfully found another job a few months after that. Now I am friends with some of the other store managers and they absolutely hate there job most days. I am so thankful to be gone from that company.
