Also none of this modernization stuff has been explained to me or the rest of my team mates. All we know is that the front of house people are guest advocates that add an unnecessary step to the help process making guests more angry and that we have a whole other clipboard of duties that were...

We are extremely short staffed in my department so I get 25-35 hrs a week but in some other departments there are people getting scheduled as little as 8hours a week two 4hr shifts on the weekend... we just hired more team members in my department and I am very worried my hours will be cut...

Exactly! Also anyone else feel zero motivation to excel on reviews knowing your reviews don’t mater in the pay because it just evens out when they decide to raise it up another $.50 or so again

To that one team member that only half washes the dishes: do you do that at home? Are all of your plates covered in grease and bits of food? Do you know how to work a sponge? Are your cupboards just in organized piles of dishes? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Honestly you most likely dodged a bullet. In my experience if you work hard here and go the distance and then some you get treated the same as the people who put in minimal effort, except if you mess up they lay into you harder because even though they will never admit it they depend on you to...

I was so upset when I saw that that is what they meant by “we are getting new computers” THAT IS NOT THE BRAIN PART!

Maybe we can all get new registers now. My store was told we were finally getting new computers and getting rid of the Dino’s from the 80’s but all we got were the monitors.... they look prettier but they are still just as dumb and slow as they were before 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏽‍♂️

Always keep the doors shut Make sure the doors are on the right way to avoid a gap between the door and the frame Wedge a folded up sand which bag between the bottom two corners Put mint tea bags inside the case towards the doors one left one center one right. Switch them out every three days or so

Bosch, the TMs in my section did the same. We have had a revolving door of Team Leaders and some of us have been there for all four within the past year... we understand it takes time to transition but we have had just about enough to the point where some of us have sought out a second job...

I got a letter in the mail that said to review options and the only thing I could do was pick between a Roth 401k and a regular 401k

Yep and that was my only option...

Oh and also we are extremely low staffed in the food service/Starbucks department

Oh no I’m talking about trained ones including LODs and our Starbucks team leader... I did have someone from electronics come over one particularly busy day and say “I don’t know what I’m doing back here but you obviously need help and no one is coming” it’s not logical because you wouldn’t...

Biggest one for me is when my self or other team mates push the help button at the Starbucks food services check out and no one comes up to see why. NO ONE. They can be literally walking past when we hit the button and they just keep walking. It has gotten to the point that when we need someone...

I average over 30 hours a week and I have been here over a year, that’s why I’m confused. I don’t understand why the other options aren’t available to me
