Are they being forced at gunpoint to work there???

When you are so low IQ, you think that making coffee is a high-level profession.

Everyone needs to keep in mind, most of these people are very young. College kids, people still living with their parents, early 20s Max. Starbucks is one of the only places that will pay them that much money with no experience, knowledge, or education. So, instead of having the opportunity to go elsewhere, they instead are simply coercing their current employer to pay them more.

Plenty of guatemalens who would happily do their job for less pay and do it way better without griping.

I say we give them a shot and get rid of these lazy liberals.

I wish them luck srs. Starbucks shut down the store near me when they tried to unionize.

They're oftentimes overworked.. maybe they can put a cap on volume, or implement a production bonus system.

This guy knows whats up

I worked at Starbucks for a bit when I was younger. We used to have grown ass men construction workers and laborers come apply as a weekend part time job think it was EZ money. They would talk chit about "real work", then would work weekend rush or two, then go outside for a 'smoke break' never to be seen again LOL. Chit is hard work, couldn't pay me enough to do it again. Takes a certain kind of person to be able to solo hot/cold bar while simultaneously taking orders through a headset having to memorize 3-4 orders at a time because you don't have 3 seconds to spare to to punch it in the system. These places are chronically understaffed and stressed tf out.

This is really the issue.

They will cut staffing and hours, but demand and business volume remains high. It eventually takes a toll on Baristas working on an understaffed floor while being slammed with mobile orders, drive thru orders, and cafe orders.

I'd love to see some of these lil boys spend a week in the trenches with minimal training. They'd be singing a different tune.

Holy fuking hell someone finally gets it.

It's a real grind and a gauntlet for sure. Supervision and management is the only thing that can make it somewhat bearable and if those two suck than it's truly a miserable time.

I had three supervisors who bullied me for a while, until I started to get along really well with one when he realized we liked the same music. The comradery was the only thing that got me through through shifts sometimes, srs.

People are chitty.

I made some amazing friends, and some real enemies working there. Something about going through the grinder together brings out the best or worst in people. Some people take the stress of the job out on their coworkers and underlings, others use it as a bonding experience

Literally the only reason I stayed as long as I did was the other cool people working there. Worst job I ever had.
