Bye Bye Bux
Today I gave my notice that effectice immediately, I was leaving Starbucks. It was not an easy thing to do, and I am not taking leaving lightly, but somethings are jsut not worth the stress it creates. After the last explosion that completely ended my marriage at the beginning of the year, I worked hard to keep my job at Starbucks. While it was only part time, it offered more than just a job. Starbucks was a bit of and escape, an income, a social time, it was something … no somewhere I could go and troubles that were plaguing my life could be left at the door and I became (Insane Mother of Three) the barista.
Sadly, lately working at Starbucks has been more stressful than my escape. There was always some teenage drama happening at the store and then came the scheduling issue. There was ALWAYS something happening with the schdule that made planning my family life impossible. Trying to get the Monsters to soccer was becoming impossible. Add to that the drama of the teenage staff … my familiy are more important to me than bringing that stress home. It will mean having to curb LOTS of what we do, but being able to spend more time with my children will out weigh that.
