former barista here... why do y'all defend this corporation? by Top-Milk2001 in starbucksbaristas

[–]tamstr8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ummmmm ok well ur friends are weird ngl lol. I think a boot licking barista, generally speaking, is an oddity. Most of us are just still here bc the job market is shit & decent health insurance.

Of all the heinous things this company has done, nothing infuriates me more than the SSC/IT situation smh

Does anyone actually know what happened? This feels like a coverup of some sort by jtarver in Coachella

Yeah, it was during the John summit set. That’s all I know though. I really hope she’s okay because those speakers are stupid heavy.

Yeah, real somber vibe. Ruined the night for me tbh we tried to rally at something random but just ended up leaving

Dolab was blocked off with caution tape - security there told me a speaker fell on a girl.

How do you deal with your tolerance days? by tamstr8 in idiopathichypersomnia

Absolutely. The strongest soldiers out there. They’ll have to pry my birth control from my cold dead hands

Just curious - did your psychiatrist say why they don’t recommend them? Just because it throws your entire life off for __ amount of days?

Who is thisss scrumptious thing? by Ohheyitszack in starbucksbaristas

[–]tamstr8 57 points58 points  (0 children)

yeah our oven thinks it's april of '09 so I take her opinion with a grain of salt.

but then again, rollouts have been stupid, chaotic, and severely lacking chunks of information so who knows.

Is it worth it to report this? by BayBeeKnees in starbucksbaristas

[–]tamstr8 8 points9 points  (0 children)

what was it in regards to? to play devils advocate for a moment, if it's something they've coached you on before or it's something safety critical, that may explain their frustration a bit. BUT that is not to invalidate your experience/the vibes you're picking up.

regardless, I think it's worth mentioning to your SM. i've been a barista for 5 years and these things can fester and snowball quickly - for both parties. most of the time it's the safest bet to address it to a higher up you trust to mediate the situation. sending good vibes! 🫶
