AMA Goodbye Starbucks!

Kitsune 狐 · January 08, 2016, 07:34:08 PM

Hellooo New Job!!!

I only have 6 more shifts to work at Starbucks, and then I am FREE! No more constantly slipping, and saving face despite wearing non-slip shoes. No more burning myself on asshole's 180F degree no-foam latte. Best of all no more having to deal with Starbucks customers!!! Fuck the "Just say 'YES'" mission statement. Sometimes you just have to say "NO" to some of those truly deserving nasty cunts. My store is falling apart, and I feel bad that I'm abandoning ship, but luckily my partners are strong swimmers.

I have dealt with too much drama from Starbucks. Hell I have had to personally evacuate the entire store twice, and called the ambulance for countless people who needed to be rushed away to the hospital. The worst part is that there are customers that my DM refused to ban from our store despite having to call the police on him for trying to go after me. The mission statement is all a lie and an illusion. Starbucks is corrupt af. Definitely didn't nurture my damned human spirit... >.>

I have tons of stories of crazies. So have any questions for a retiring Barista?

I don't know what that is...so no.

I'm going to be a call center tech. Fear my troubleshooting powers.

Dutch Bro's is a coffee place like Starbucks. I guess it's only a Northwest thing though.

I'm excited because there's opportunities to get into the code development department, and they train you.

Did I mention it's for a company that prints and develops designs and games for the lottery?

I thought you had to have an Indian accent to work at a place like that?

I can fake a good one as long as I don't start laughing... my husband called my work today, and used an Indian accent while asking to speak to me. My coworker was confused.

The stress was immense, and I don't feel safe there anymore. Last week a guy ended up shaking me while screaming/laughing "BUT I DON'T WANNA LEAVE!!" after I told him he had to leave. He left bruises on my arm. We have had the cops talk to him multiple times about not staying on our porch after we leave, because he will just sit there all night and still be there in the morning. A lot of creepers hang out around that location.

I got to see a customer dead arm another customer who was trying to chase after me when I walked away to call the police. I had to ask him to leave after he started to get ridiculously angry that he wasn't making coherent words, and refused to leave. >.> the cop is not happy that the customer is still allowed in our store.

They have them in AZ, and they're awesome. The 911 was a lifesaver in college.
