Looking for sunscreen recs for my face! Something that won't feel oily & make me break out :) What brands are you liking right now for this?

My (married) partner has worked at Starbucks for many years now as a store manager.

He started out genuinely enjoying the job- but mostly the people. He loves investing in the partners and connecting with customers. He was always getting amazing feedback and encouragement- he is just someone that really cares and is a hard worker.

I've watch starbucks quickly drain every ounce of joy & life from him. He never gets a day off anymore; missing important events & time with our family of two young kids. It's caused a strain in our marriage because i never see him. I've learned that the SM role is the one who the partners expect to fix all their problems and the DM blames for all the problems- when the reality is that it's the company as a whole who only cares about more profit going into their pockets.

He comes home at least once a week in tears and is getting sick so much from stress & lack of sleep. He has confided in his DM and they do not care. They just reinforce that if he can't be on call at any notice then "this job isn't for him". I honestly have so much bitterness towards Starbucks and we are on the verge of breaking.

For those that got out- how did you do it? Where did you go for another job?

Any relatable experiences from other SMs?

Please go easy on the SMs- you have no idea what type of pressure and emotional abuse/manipulation they are experiencing everyday. ❤️
