r/Albertsons

Can someone plz explain to me why we have to manually suppress tags ? Because if they are unsubscribed they won't generate a new tag anyway. So why suppress them still

I just got a job offer today from Albertsons as a barista at Starbucks (SoCal). I thoroughly enjoy the idea of working back in Starbucks but in reality it’s not that at all. I’ve worked at Starbucks for 5 years ended up leaving the company back in 2023 as a supervisor. At Albertsons not only will I be a part time barista but I will be getting paid minimum wage 16.90$ despite my extensive experience. Plus during my interview he mentioned “it’s good that you already know how to process inventory”yes but as a supervisor!! I do like that they’re willing to work with my school schedule but other than that I don’t know how to feel about them being unionized or paying all these extra fees when I already get a decent deduction as it is. Plus they said I’m eligible for benefits after 7 months and I can get a dollar and some change raise by 6 months.

I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place because my current job is not any better. I work as a barista part time but hella part time!!! It’s such a chill and easy job but I get no benefits, no sick pay, no time and a half, no holiday pay and that also sucks because you could be sick for a whole week and won’t get paid because you can’t accumulate sick hours 😩🫠

Can anyone explain to me if it’s worth going union or should I just stick with the easy job despite not having benefits ?
