@Absolutely Everyone telling her to "quit and get a different job", as if this is a simple proposition that anyone can do at any time.

You are:

1. Trolling.

2. Are both insanely privileged and uncapable of being aware of the world around you.

3. Are even more unaware than #2.

4. Trolling.

@bobbyeph have you worked at starbucks? if you did you would know how much baristas get taken advantage of by shit indecent customers.

I'm imagining that this girl doesn't have the luxury of finding a new job - she probably HAS to after posting this. If only she hadn't worn that apron and hat...

Wow. Good thing I hardly go to Starbucks.

First off Starbucks is a joke..... They take approx. 115.00 a month out of your check for insurance and people make about minimum wage so do the math at 20 hrs a week... And they cater to the bitchest spoiled customers on the planet.... Sorry anyone that orders a skinny vanilla latter with a 1/4 pack of Splenda, extra stirred, needs punched in the fucking mouth!!! Worst place to work!!

i work at starbucks. people keep bitching at me of all people for the high prices and its not as though i could explain to them that howard shultz just got a 60mil bonus. i make minimum wage for christ sake. im not the source of the greed. as for a job, its really one of the better food/retail places to be at.

I work for Starbucks.....have for 9 years. Get a different job if you hate it so much......or is Starbucks the only company out there that's "not as shitty as the others?"

[jakeb934]

Uhm sorry but I happen to manage a McDonald's and its the total opposite. Flexible scheduling etc.

BIG corporations + BIG profits+ screw everyone! (all but the execs and big shareholders...but still general public love the place.....why? they are souless inside and no a place I want to hang out at ...

There is better coffee out there, Starbucks is just water sugar and cream....no coffee at all.

Well Starbucks is a corporation, like all others. The fact that they offer benefits to their employees for 20 hours a week of work (average, of course) is remarkable and simply beyond what many others offer. People always want more. Give a mouse a cookie.....
