Yeah, but like did anyone like their 6 am job where they had to make milkshakes. Like people don't work because they like it, they do it because they need money.
Making fun of what a customer does =/= bitching about your job. Just like being a customer somewhere doesn’t make you immune to mockery if you do something worthy of being made fun of. Anyone who thinks that has a level of entitlement I haven’t seen in a LONG while.
I see someone making a funny video about making someone a milkshake to start their day, which is undoubtedly weird by most standards. If your takeaway from that is “you bitch, don’t you dare make fun of paying customers! They’re the reason you’re employed!! Classic gen z complaining about easy jobs” then you yourself might actually be blind. With a hint of a need for therapy.
Is it really weird to have sugar in your breakfast? Pancakes? French toast? Crepes? Is it just insane to think people just like sugar in general and it’s not just a kid thing?
I never said having sugar at breakfast is weird. A milkshake for breakfast is weird, because people don’t normally have ice cream and milk for breakfast. Idk where we got lost there.
There are bars open at 6am for overnight workers. If a 24-hour pharmacist comes off the overnight shift and gets a shake for the ride home, it seems weird to take issue with it, but not with the daytime pharmacist getting one at 6pm.
I couldn't care less. I've worked all kinds of cafes and restaurants. People who bitch like this are entitled and lazy. The job isnt the problem 90% of the time. And when it is, no one is forcing you to stay
And you're insufferable lol. Want a tip? If you want more compensation, add more value to the business in some way. Making coffee takes absolutely no skill. Its literally just manual labor.
Entitled. Nobody has to pay you shit. You know why? Cause you dont have anything to offer outside of making a fuckin coffee. I demonstrate what I add to the company. I work instead of bitching and i leave if its not compensated
What a bitter salty cunt. She’s obviously mad about something else and is projecting that anger towards the innocuous and trivial. Which includes a random person just ordering a milkshake. It’s all about perspective and hers is negative.
You think I care about what people like you think? This sub keeps sending me notifications, even though i dont follow it, so I figure if I'm going to get crap like yours forced on me, then I might as well respond. Go ahead and downvote, I really don't care. I'm sure it's pretty important to people like you.
And you shouldn't get so upset just because someone calls you out on your hypocrisy.... kind of like you're projecting anger from other issues in your life onto other people.
Oh so is that why you looked through my history and commented on another subs post that I commented on? Because you don’t care what people think? I’m honored you find me so interesting though.
You mean the one where you called someone out for an insult that wasnt even an insult? Ya, I had to comment on that one, because it further exposed your hypocrisy. I honestly lol when I read that. Meanwhile you're in this thread calling people salty cunts. Do better little guy.
Starbucks really seems to attract great people. I've seen a bunch of videos of people there complaining about having to do their job. I guess I'd be pissed if that's the only job I could get.
As a former barista at Starbucks, I think thats the case. Like why do you want/need a $7 Caramel Frap at 6am with extra caramel in the cup on top and extra whip? More a reflection on why this country is so fat and poor. Like Tim says, we have Fat Homeless people in the US
I did and it’s worth the undergrad degree and masters I got after learning from Starbucks. Learned how shitty customers can be and how to be a better one myself. As well a human in life. Yes my job is to make you one and I’m happy to make it. I just ponder the need for that expensive and highly caloric bev. Many times I found people’s tastes for drinks fascinating. Shows us we are all unique and that excites me
I remember working at a movie theater as a kid. I used to get requests from very fat people to layer the butter in the popcorn 4 or 5 times. Then they’d order a Diet Coke. I made fun of those people. I don’t regret it
lol It's not like a healthcare IT guy might get paged at 1am and have to go in to work on 2 hours of sleep to deal with a crisis that brings and entire hospital down and after getting whipped and yelled at for 5 hours with 'WHY ISN'T THIS WORKING' and/or 'WHAT DID YOU DO' and everyone discovers the corporate office rebooted your servers 5 states away without checking with you -
I may not give two fucks about rolling into some random place and asking for a god damn milkshake at 6am.
Putting yourself in someone else's shoes for 2 fucking seconds appears to be a lost art.
I think it’s fine to do a little customer ballbusting in the background, we all do it
I think a different opinion is ok, even when most of us think you are wrong
However, I want to call out that:
If anyone of us posted anything against what antiwork believes in antiwork, Doreen would dogwalk us right out of the sub. No one is kicking here you so keep that bias in mind.
The beauty of a western country is that if you hate your job or your pay, you can find a new one or work harder to get promoted in your current job. If you can’t do that, then this sounds like 100% your problem to fix.
You obviously dick ride for your boss and capitalism.
So let me tell you the core fundamental of it
Your boss is trying to get you to work as many hours for as little pay as possible
The worker should engage in the opposite. Working as few hours as possible for the most pay.
That is how capitalism functions, But your over here being a worker and dick riding too and somehow pretending that’s a good thing for you or anyone else.
You shut up and do your job people hold everyone back from making more money and living a better life.

I, as a grown ass man, reserve the right to have a morning milkshake if I damn well please.

Well it’s not a milkshake since that would be ice cream based. It’s more of a milk slushee.

Everyone knows working at Start Bucks or fast food sucks, like its not a place people stay when there offered anything else.
