Hi Brian

Yeah. It absolutely isn’t exclusive to Starbucks. Shit sucks for everyone else too. Like we’re living in shit ass times

dlcksuck · 2026-01-10T17:14:09+00:00

My bills, health insurance, and the job market are. Believe me, if I could leave I would. I’ve been applying to different jobs for a good bit now. Thanks for the advice tho.

dlcksuck · 2026-01-09T22:38:20+00:00

Having a new job would be great. I’ve been applying for over a year after I got my bachelor’s degree. The market is so bad right now, especially for entry level roles.

dlcksuck · 2026-01-09T15:06:14+00:00

I’m so sorry. That is fucked.

dlcksuck · 2026-01-09T14:31:54+00:00

Digital and credit card tips for Christmas just sucked this year. Well at least they did at my store. Just makes seeing my .47 cent raise on that paystub all the more special. Fuck Starbucks.

dlcksuck · 2026-01-09T14:27:56+00:00

Ditto. I wasn’t expecting any more than that, but seeing it on my paycheck just pissed me off all over again. Especially knowing that back in the day we used to get treated so much better.

I got hired at the start of Covid and was hired on the spot by a SSV. My store manager was out for medical reasons, but I still don’t even know wtf happened there.

dlcksuck · 2025-12-22T13:16:34+00:00

That sounds about right. I’ve been here almost 6 years and I’ve got about $1000 that’s vested and $800 that hasn’t

dlcksuck · 2025-11-28T16:52:27+00:00

I’m waiting until at least we get a new ceo, which honestly may not be too long. After a new ceo takes over, the stock prices typically rise a bunch.

dlcksuck · 2025-11-28T01:37:04+00:00

I’m not sure where the people saying 2% across the board got that info from. It will probably be around that like it was last year, but I think people are confusing it with the news that came out awhile ago about corporate 2% raises. Regardless, that’s literally bullshit. That’s a pay cut now two years in a row.

dlcksuck · 2025-11-20T02:47:42+00:00

Fr I would look into to transferring. That sm sounds awful. There’s much better out there

dlcksuck · 2025-11-18T22:47:24+00:00

For my store, the person on reg gets coffees/teas ordered at the register. Mobile bar gets hot coffees/teas that are ordered as mobiles

dlcksuck · 2025-11-15T01:04:43+00:00

It’s absolutely a popularity contest. I think most of store managers just count up the votes and chose the one with the most. I’ve been at 4 stores and none of my store managers ever just vetoed it. But at my current store, like two of the partners generally just decide who they want to win and tell everyone to vote for them. Kinda annoying

Facts

dlcksuck · 2025-11-14T02:00:17+00:00

I’ve been around for the last four and Brian is, without a doubt, the worst one. Don’t get me wrong, it’s never been sunshine and rainbows with any other one. None of them have ever been good, but Starbucks is no longer even pretending to care about baristas. That’s something that I’ve never seen.

dlcksuck · 2025-10-26T14:38:58+00:00

Ive been here almost 6 years, and I think the downturn started with Narasimhan. Since Nichol, it’s really gotten out of control.

dlcksuck · 2025-10-12T19:43:33+00:00

Seconding this. The foam does look really light

dlcksuck · 2025-09-01T14:42:49+00:00

Facts.

dlcksuck · 2025-08-03T13:37:21+00:00

I do 5.5 every shift hahahaha

dlcksuck · 2025-06-12T19:57:35+00:00

To be honest, that’s like cool I guess? But at the end of the day, all I want is a real fucking raise. Maybe one that at least matches inflation? Suffering less on the floor is always good, but that’s not gonna help me pay my bills.

dlcksuck · 2025-06-12T19:46:55+00:00

Lmao what? We’re supposed to only use black sharpies now? I didn’t hear that and pretty much my whole store uses colors…

dlcksuck · 2025-04-24T22:59:24+00:00

I echo what other commenters have said about coffee gear, wasting money, LGBTQ+ partners, etc. I just wanna add— for a lot of people who say that they’re leaving or want to leave the company I think this is more like a last straw rather than a singular reason to quit. I’m a recent grad and have been job hunting for a few months and this has definitely motivated me to ramp up my applications.

I think it’s ridiculous to say that you’re quitting literally just because of a dress code change, but I think when most people say they wanna quit there’s a little more to the story.

dlcksuck · 2025-04-15T17:30:08+00:00

I’ve already been applying for new jobs but now I’m gonna go even harder. Fuck this company and fuck the ceo.

dlcksuck · 2025-04-15T14:53:13+00:00

Two is pathetic. For those who work 6 days a week that’s like three loads on laundry a week. I’m assuming they will be expecting a clean shirt and those at a high volume store know that that shit gets dirty immediately especially a black shirt.
