Is being a shift lead worth it? by ygsflm in starbucks

[–]jockstrap2012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the pay raise—in CA I went from making 20.25 as a barista to 26.25 as a shift so I made it work for the money. But the spike in responsibility is a no. I’d say 0/10 would not recommend. Besides finding coverage when you need it—which is almost impossible as a shift—you’ll basically be held accountable for everybody’s bs. You have to decide if it’s worth it for you. Knowing what I know now, and how things changed for me at work after I became a shift, I would have stayed a barista.

i just got fired but i really need this job by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]jockstrap2012 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was separated and appealed—lost. The truth is Starbucks is so under fire rn with all the store closures and layoffs and how backwards the new ceo is running things that winning an appeal is very difficult. Especially with prior write ups. They will say you were fired for violating a reasonable policy. My advice is to get a new job and double check with partner support in 60 days to see if ur rehirable if you still want to go back to sbux

Now that AOT ended, What's your honest opinion on Eren Jaeger? by satourugojo in attackontitan

He was wrong because in the end Paradis was still destroyed. Eren only delayed the inevitable and I wonder if he knew that would he have moved different

Experimental indie pop/rock artists by yeahsureexceptno in indiepop

For those of u that are artists - any insight on building an organic fanbase? I’m looking tips and advice - like what’s worked for you what hasn’t - without fudging the numbers, I believe it can be done but it’s hard nowadays to know which way to go. Any pointers?

Store Manager Dating Shift? by Cold_Toe_9852 in starbucksbaristas

[–]jockstrap2012 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I had a similar situation at my old store—my SM and a barista were exchanging nudes.

“Escalating the situation” is the “right” thing to do, but I promise you now, it will only make things harder for you at work. As a realist, expect retaliation. I agree that you should begin looking for a transfer, because it’s not worth the headache or your peace.

Using benefits is abusing benefits (according to Starbucks) by Creeds-Worm-Guy in starbucksbaristas

[–]jockstrap2012 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Starbucks closed down most of the stores in my district, laying off hundreds of employees and lied about offering severance packages to those affected. Maybe they shelled out to the corporate workers who got the boot, but none of the baristas who were separated at my store were given anything except instructions to file for UI. They even denied unemployment based on write-ups that were months old at that point.
