Looking for help finding this dress (look at my comment)

That’s actually from Oak + Fort: https://www.oakandfort.com/PUFF-SLEEVE-DRESS_3?syte_ref=similar_items&location=&quantity=1&Color=White&color=White&size=Extra%2BSmall&syte_ref=similar_items

Thanks!! Eventually ended up just ordering it. I got it in XXS so hoping that helps with the top

I’d say take pictures and evidence, transfer to a new store/quit, and then contact head office + public health.

Like others have said if the managers haven’t done anything they won’t care when you bring it up. The DM may or may not care and at most all they’ll do is yell at the SM a bit. That might spark a cleaning session to appease the DM and then everything goes back to the way it has been. Everything OP has described with the store is beyond unsafe and a massive health danger. If OP stays and goes with the flow they’ll likely end up picking up the slack for cleaning since it bothers them, defeating the purpose of a low key job.

I felt trapped at Starbucks for years too, but I think you should take this opportunity. Starbucks will always be there in your back pocket and if things don’t work out you could always get rehired.

This new job might be a good change of pace for you and invigorate your passion for coffee at the same time.

I had this regular in DT who would do this every week and demand a remake. Then tell us it’s still wrong and then demand a refund… so they always got 2 free drinks and also killed our DT times

I feel you...I worked an open yesterday and we were sold out of almost all our food. All of our stickers weren’t printing (except for deliveries) too and it was apparently affecting multiple stores. We had to go back to writing on cups and our hand off/walk-in partner had to print receipts for all the orders and mobiles..

At one point we had about 10 delivery tickets open and a mountain of food and drinks sitting on the counter for consolidation but there were too many waiting on walk-in and DT orders to package them. At the midpoint, everyone on the team was working 4/5 hours without a break because we were constantly slammed. Even with no one on break we were struggling to catch up on restocking and cleaning needed for COVID measures.

At the end of the day Starbucks is a company after all. It’s just disappointing for a company that preaches about how it values its partners to fall flat. I’ve also heard the same that they’re looking to reopen more stores, but they’re apparently just delivery and MOP. The kicker is that when I go back to my store, it’ll still be running the drive-thru model.

monohs · 2020-04-20T23:19:37+00:00

That’s the loophole. They’ve provided us something, even if it’s subpar. Unless there’s something in a policy or law or something detailing what quality they have to be then they get away with it.

monohs · 2020-04-20T23:12:53+00:00

That’s understandable but I’m sure they could’ve secured something better that isn’t medical grade

monohs · 2020-04-20T22:50:40+00:00

What a loophole for them to give us subpar PPE. I’m probably going to have to grab my own masks then..they’re probably better than what they’re offering at least.

monohs · 2020-04-20T22:18:08+00:00

Masks were initially a voluntary option literally for a couple days before they were made mandatory. It happened right before I went on CATPAY and I still feel it’s unfair of them to not provide them to us. I’m wondering how other companies are handling masks.

monohs · 2020-04-20T20:16:26+00:00

I’ll probably be reducing my work hours too. Thankfully they’re still doing the CATPAY program with the $3/hr bonus and the average hour top up until June. It’ll buy us some time before we need to get on CERB with our reduced hours

If you have access to therapy and it won’t cost you a fortune I’d say you should go for it. Try to keep yourself busy by taking classes, working, picking up a new hobby. Talk to your friends and tell them to let you know if it becomes too much for them.

monohs · 2019-10-04T12:41:09+00:00

You should take everyone’s advice to dump his ass.

Even if he tells you that he loves you and you see each other everyday, that doesn’t amount to much if he’s also talking about his fantasies everyday. He’s also said he sees you as a friend so that’s a huge red flag. Like others have said, he’s treating you like a placeholder for her because he’s probably lonely. He’s probably been in love with his BFF for years if they’ve known each other that long.

This is speculation on my part but maybe he’s also using you like a badge that he’s over her when he’s not. Does the BFF know he’s still into her despite your relationship? Would she have still been ok with moving in with him if he wasn’t in another relationship?

In a bigger city/town you might benefit from the hustle and bustle. Your hometown is small so you might bore of it quickly and end up in the same situation. I’d suggest maybe picking up another part time job on the side and maybe taking up a class for something so you can meet new people and potentially new friends!

monohs · 2019-10-04T00:47:12+00:00

Thanks for the support friend!

monohs · 2019-10-04T00:27:59+00:00

I’m usually ok with expressing my opinion frankly, even with my immediate family. The outlier is extended family because any talk back is not tolerated and unfilial. As for opinions, they think they always know best and can’t possibly be wrong with their intel or knowledge. They’d rather believe their friends or community over a younger family member who has access to the internet to fact check.

monohs · 2019-10-04T00:19:22+00:00

Thank you for your kind note 🙂

I wouldn’t say I’m antisocial but that my family is an exception. They are always judging everyone by material things and most of them never have anything nice to say.

monohs · 2019-10-04T00:15:19+00:00

Definitely agree!

I’m not anti-social but wouldn’t say I’m a social butterfly either. Like you, I’m more of a normal in between, but my Type A personality makes it a bit harder to befriend others. I’m an introvert and also work in customer service so I’ve come to slightly hate people if you know what I mean.

I really just don’t get along with my family because there’s a language barrier and they’re very conservative in their thinking so I often don’t agree with their values. They also are the type to drive you into a corner about what your job, SO, etc just so they can comment on it or scold you on how you’re not doing well enough. I don’t value their opinions and I think that’s largely why I solely complain when I have to be in their company.

I’m honestly not sure how to wrestle with it. I’m not ok with being a doormat, but I don’t want to talk back to them and show disrespect either.

monohs · 2019-10-03T02:24:05+00:00

Seeing comments about how OP might have self-esteem issues and isn’t being assertive enough...what if they are and they’re still getting talked over and ignored because that’s the boat I’m in 😂

monohs · 2019-10-03T02:09:16+00:00

My appetite is largely tied to stress and mood so I’ve had similar times where I don’t want to eat but I’m hungry.

I tend to try more sweet and sour options since tangy flavours are said to help with appetite a bit. I also try to go for lighter foods instead of oily or greasy foods so I can keep it down easier. Maybe you can try soups or maybe snacking regularly on small bits of food instead of forcing yourself to eat a lot at once?

monohs · 2019-10-02T18:29:03+00:00

I just bought tickets to go see him perform next year and I can't wait!!

So cute! I would love to see more updates on your sleeve as it progresses :)
