I don’t know what it is with Starbucks hiring people fresh off the street who never had a moment in coffee to come in and be a manager over a whole store, but this has to be one of my least favorite parts of Starbucks. I’ve not met a manager trainee Who hasn’t come in and thought that their shit didn’t stink and tried to take over the manager who’s training them store! Yesterday I left my shift after four hours because I couldn’t sit down and have a store manager trainee who worked three shifts at the same time as me only two of which have we interacted and engaged. One of these was when she had to pull me off the store floor, to tell me I was undermining her to other employees, but the only example that she could give me was not an example of me undermining or even questioning her authority or her knowledge! I don’t understand why every time these people come in, thinking they’re entitled to do whatever with somebody else’s staff. FYI it’s bad form it’s BAD etiquette! If I came to your store as a new hire, you would still get to know me before you started giving me feedback and coaching me! If I wasn’t the right fit for your store, you wouldn’t even hired me but this manager at the store DID. So if you wanna pull me off the floor and have a private conversation about how you feel like I did something I didn’t do. You should probably wait for my manager to be around to do that.

Ahhhhhhhhh it’s so backwards here and my myriad of mental illness is not sure it can do this job either.

Rant over for today
