MLCKAA 550 Posted May 16 These people are actually complaining that the company has instituted a dress code— any black shirt. That’s it. Just read an article in which an employee complained that Starbucks is not giving them a stipend to cover the cost of the shirt! Workplace dress codes aren’t anything new and aren’t an infringement on your rights. Geez, imagine these people getting real jobs and despairing over the cost of dressing business casual!

lickin_starfish 1,899 Posted May 16 When I was in high school, I worked part time at a grocery store in the produce section. I had to wear black pants, a white button up shirt, a green apron, a bowtie, and a puffy green hat that snapped in the front. I don't know what these Starbucks phaggots are screeching about. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To complain that your job has a dress code is insanity. Outside of construction trades or childcare, I think it’s fairly standard. Plus— black shirt? Run down to Goodwill and drop that $1.99.

I worked at JC Penney's when I was in high school and college. Had to wear dress pants, a button down shirt, and a tie. They didn't supply it and I didn't expect them to. It was just what you had to wear to do the job. If you didn't like it don't take the job. Now, I also worked at McDonalds and they DID supply the uniform but it was an actual uniform with their logo on it so that's a little different. From the OP's description, this is more like JC Penney's than Mcdonalds in my examples. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know if you've earned the right to call anyone "phaggot" after wearing that hat! But yeah, when your employer gives you a dress code, you either do it, or quit. Your choice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My daughter works at a restaurant, she had to purchase her shirt (black, white, or solid color depending on what kind of shift she's working), black pants and shoes. The only thing they supplied was her apron and visor. Same with my son, works at a very large car dealership. Last year they did give th employees wind breaker type jackets as a "gift" but he's had to purchase their collared shirts with their logo as well as his own pants and shoes. When I worked fast food one uniform was supplied, if I wanted another I had to purchase it. I've also worked for a large bank for 30 years and they've had a pretty strict dress code; even more so for those working in branches or direct customer pacing roles. If we want anything with the bank logo on it, we have to purchase it as well. Nothing is "free", squid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And as someone noted, Starbucks did provide two black shirts per employee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
