i officially hate working for starbucks. i know i’m mentally and physically ready to leave, but for now i’m stuck working for this place because of my life’s situations. i no longer felt excited to work after about a year of being with the company, but i continued to arrive feeling like i could still get through the day simply. i figured that stickin’ it out would’nt be too bad, but now we’ve got this new, anal manager. i blame him/her for the negative changes in the attitudes of my partners. i knew that there’d be great days and not-so-great days. but since the day of her arrival, it’s been a living nightmare. every little thing is threatened by a write-up, his/her method of pointing out our mistake is degrading, like we’re 6-year-olds. he/she does the thing where one questions the others of what they’ve just done so that the person in trouble thinks about the mistake they made. it’s not like our mistakes are anything related to morals; we’re not children hiding a piece of broken china. if we didn’t put something in the right place, simply tell us. don’t make us feel like we’re stupid, little kids.
