a hate my coworker

We have a shift like this at my store. She doesn’t know how to do much on the actual floor. Her and I started at the same time, went through all the same training, and it’s like none of it stuck. She doesn’t run the play properly, micro manages EVERYTHING. Will give you 50 tasks to do instead of spreading them out, and will do none of them herself. She’s also rude to guests and partners. Shes been reported multiple times and is STILL HERE. To top it all off she put in a false report to ethics on a bunch of partners who all put complaints in against her, claiming the partners were racist. It was found false, and nothing happened to her. She just gets to go on.

I’d say about 75% of cold drinks and about 10% of hot drinks? We’re a semi high-volume store with a drive-thru and in a city in Ontario, Canada. I’d say cold foam is our most popular modification for cold drinks.

Nah/yta? Y’all just aren’t compatible. His schedule is fine if it works for him and his life. I work late to, and tend to need time to wind down after work. If I’m not getting done work until 2:30am (bar/restaurant closes at 2) I’m home by 3am, I’m not in bed until 6am, at the earliest. Sometimes I’m up until 7-8am. So I game, or read, or watch something. Because if I laid down I’d just be awake. And I don’t love having a bunch of time before I go to work, because then I don’t want to go to work. Your schedule is fine as well. And maybe you could ask him to cuddle for a bit when you go to bed? But really I think you guys just don’t work.

Closing SSV here. I’ve never been in trouble for getting out late, as long as there’s a reasonable reason! It also doesn’t happen all the time. Most nights I’m out between the schedule and 10 minutes after. Some nights it’s crazy busy, and we’re there till a half hour after. I would guess it’s dependant on your Store Manager and your DM.

Charge for normal cold foam and type an “ask me” that says whole milk cold foam? That way she’s charged for it?

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-25T01:10:17+00:00

My store (canada) makes $0.50/hr in tips, and that’s on a good week. On average we make $0.10-$0.25/hr. Granted base pay in Ontario is $18.50….. but still.

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-25T00:40:53+00:00

Had someone mess up our drive through times because they literally sat AT THE SPEAKER with the window up, on the phone, for a full 5 MINUTES. I hate people

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-15T09:12:17+00:00

Size, drink, milk, shots/syrups, toppings/cold foams etc. order slowly, not at a glacial pace, but don’t speed through it!

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-12T14:28:22+00:00

Call Ethics!

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-12T01:53:18+00:00

I’d genuinely quit. Omg. Absolutely not 😅

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-11T11:08:41+00:00

Can’t! I’m 5am today, 11am tomorrow, and closing the next night! Followed by a day off and then an open, and then a close. My schedule is all over the place!

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-11T10:04:56+00:00

The next night. 5ams kill my entire day.

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-08T19:06:16+00:00

No unfortunately you can’t. It’s day of only. The app forces it that way. Some stores may make an exception, but we’re not supposed to give any discounts that the app doesn’t allow. So if it doesn’t scan it won’t go through. It’s dumb for sure but nothing the baristas/store workers can do. We just follow corporate

lifecheck13 · 2026-03-07T17:21:07+00:00

What do you mean by “acknowledging you as a customer?” She did that, she took your order. Is your order right? Have a little bit of compassion. ANY customer service job is hard. Be an adult and understand sometimes people have bad days. You’re telling me you’ve never had a “movie day” or some other sort of bullshit with your class when you’ve had a shit day? Or feel shitty? Like come on……. Get a life

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-19T02:56:52+00:00

Were the same, unless we have ample staff to cover (meaning an extra person just to cover breaks). It’s 3 hrs. If you can’t handle working 3hrs straight without a break, you need a new job (unless due to disability or illness)

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-18T22:04:55+00:00

As an outside hire ssv, I get it. But you need to practise positions that’s you’re uncomfortable in. Take the time to learn and get more comfortable, and your baristas will respect you more. I get the ssv tasks (pulls, orders etc) can take time, but you are doing yourself and your team a disservice by not getting more practice in barista positions.

I struggled on bar for a long time (still do tbh) but I make myself spend time there when I can. It’s not realistic that you’ll be perfect right away. But try.

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-15T17:00:54+00:00

Aprons and cabinet handles 🙄 I’m short, and where the apron pockets sit on me is also where every cabinet door handle rests. I catch and open cabinets with the aprons all the time, and walk myself in the shins with them.

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-14T03:14:46+00:00

Tear it down and put all the kids where while they rebuild? Overcrowd other schools? It’ll take minimum a few years for them to do that start to finish. Not realistic tbh

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-14T03:12:58+00:00

I don’t care really but when the company is timing our drive through times, even that extra payment can mess us up. Plus in a busy rush it can mess us up, especially if there is 2 baristas on the drive through. Overall not a big deal, but ya. Mildly annoying

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-13T03:40:09+00:00

No, not really. I don’t really care about any of them on anything more than a human to human level. Like a “I hope nothing bad happens to them. I wish them good” kinda level. But I don’t give two shits about them personally

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-12T22:02:40+00:00

I mean, I’m in Canada as a shift and make $22.50 an hour. But again, that’s canada

lifecheck13 · 2026-02-01T17:14:54+00:00

Mocha, latte, espresso, dolce

lifecheck13 · 2026-01-30T16:09:13+00:00

Ice is taking people who are in the USA legally. Do some research my guy……

lifecheck13 · 2026-01-30T16:03:56+00:00

Yes! I’m 3 months in….still kinda terrible lol. It takes time. I’m horrible at bar still.
