working at a coffee shop rn, recently had a shift with the cattiest shift lead imaginable. she brings a boyfriend and a fuxking checkers board to work, doesn't do anything but slack off for most of it, get on my ass when the sink in the back overflows (SHE was assigned to the back kitchen, hypocrite), and when I try to make small talk or ask question she acts as if I'm being annoying and I'm bothering her date with her boyfriwnd. Absolute pick me btw, also at the end of the shift we're supposed to mop, so she hands the mop to her boyfriend, acts all giggly when her boyfriend obv has no idea wtf they were doing. This is my second shift ever, so I'm not about to be like “hey shift lead get your shit together” also it's not my goddamn job to. Lo and behold, the following morning boss post in the groupchat complaining Abt dirty floors. She stays silent and doesn't text anything. Willing to bet she told the boss it was my fault bc they're all buddy buddy, and is the reason my boss is now micromanaging me. Also apparently she's talking behind my back too, what a surprise.
During my First shift with a new coworker today, coworker goes “I've heard a LOT about you from (insert shift lead name)”. Like wtf was our 4 hours shift together that bothersome? Like come on you're a full grown 20 or 30 some woman, I literally am in high school. If you're so sensitive that you get annoyed by a kid asking you where the espresso beans are, maybe the correct response is to grow tf up. Also this is one of those jobs where I'm paid below min wage but tipps apparently make up for it. I'm just trying to make some money for school so I have to keep the job and it's too late to find another, but man I wish I could quit.
Sorry for the long rant, just a lot to get off my chest.
