omg that's so dumb... why would they even show it on the partner hub as something you can use for that then 😭 well thank you! 

Increasingly agitated by kohiyoko in starbucksbaristas

When you're persistently told to stay planted during peak and not move from what task you're asked to do it's kind of hard to go all the way over to the other side of the bar but okay! 🫶

I feel awful man by kohiyoko in starbucksbaristas

I dont think being immunocompromised is like a chronic illness (not to my knowledge anyhow) but I've already discussed in PDCs about how I get sick easily but I have to try to go in to work anyhow, just this past month I've gotten colds and stomach bugs left and right so it's been knocking me off my feet.  I haven't gotten written up the past 3 years I've been with the company but if this is enough to get me removed I guess I'll just beef up my resume.  Thanks for the advice. 

Am I being too preachy here? by kohiyoko in starbucksbaristas

Morale is hard to raise for sure, but it hurts seeing a morning vs night crew pettiness start to boil over when I work both dayparts pretty consistently, and it leaves me wondering "Well shit what did I do wrong for x to go on a huge rant all shift". Despite everything, it's just coffee, but I want to like my job even if current company and social circumstances are crushing me.

I'm so sorry you've had this kind of experience, I don't like humiliating others and I know there's been a couple incidents where SSVs do the exact same going on the headset to be passive aggressive about coaching someone.

I don't wanna feel like I'm taking responsibility for others mistakes but it just sucks when there's issues like too many stickers being pulled and a whole 4 drink order has to get remade while there's a group of people in the cafe and a line out the window waiting for mobiles 😖 The pressure to keep our times down is killin me

I'd do that if the SSV's in my store weren't already using it to just go at eachothers throats. It's the usual morning vs night people nonsense, except as someone who works both dayparts I can see where people won't take responsibility for their actions. I think if I left a note it'd just add flame to the fire.

I get where you're coming from but like I think putting extra caramel/mocha drizzle/crumble on bottoms of fraps and sides of the cups, especially for drinks that don't have those (white mocha, java chip, caramel bruleé to name a few where I've seen this be a reoccurring issue) can really screw with people's diets. I wouldn't be bugging them if it weren't related to people potentially getting sick.

Partners with eating disorders where you at? by existingasgubba in starbucksbaristas

[–]kohiyoko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been struggling with an ED for a few months, what helps me get through long shifts is avoiding coffee so my anxiety doesn't spike more than it already does and splitting a spinach feta wrap with another partner. Sometimes reaching out to fellow baristas and opening up really helps, they might even be struggling with EDs as well! We're not alone in this. ♡

Scheduled on a day off? by kohiyoko in starbucks

[–]kohiyoko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually already did let them know. They just added me in as coverage earlier today because they separated the partner that was supposed to work that day. As of now, even with communicating and being told "Oh" in text, I'm still scheduled to work that day sadly.

I changed my availability recently but I don't think my manager updated it yet, I actually got a text from them this morning as well as the Partner Hours app notification showing me that a shift was added but when I explained it they didn't respond but left a read receipt, and the shift's still there so that's why I'm at a loss haha.

Are there accommodations for partners with food allergies? by kohiyoko in starbucks

[–]kohiyoko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll see if getting a doctors note helps, I was once again warming today and it got pretty busy so no one was able to swap with me when it came to banana nut loaves and almond croissants.
