Oh, the oppression!
HA
Dont like the dress code, work somewhere else. What is happening to this country? The baristas don’t own the company and don’t get to set the rules. Rules change and either adapt or move on.

How about taking out the piercings so the pus doesn’t drip into my coffee.
“Restrictive dress code”, are you serious…? WTH.
Entitled. This is what happens when you raise an entire generation with no rules or responsibilities.
The dress code is pointless as I don’t care what they wear under the apron. Most companies don’t require wearing company gear at all times. The long waits are far more important.
I also do not care what baristas wear as long as their clothes are clean and cover their bodies so they don’t have exposed skin brushing up against food, etc.
That said, an employer has a right to impose a reasonable dress code, and telling coffeehouse workers they need to wear khaki or denim pants and a black shirt is neither unduly burdensome nor discriminatory. I think the employees have bigger issues to worry about, like pay, working hours, and benefits (retirement, education reimbursement, etc.).
I support unions, but this is not a Norma Rae moment. I believe if you do not want to agree to a reasonable dress code, then simply pick up and take a job at another coffee chain, or a restaurant, hotel, etc.
Bring in the scabs
Snowflakes.
Is it really that difficult to just wear a black shirt to work every day? They are giving you two black shirts. And there are very few people who don’t already have a pair of khaki, black or blue pants.
Employees have good benefits if you work at least 20 hours/week that include medical, dental and vision coverage; paid tuition and 401(k) matching.
Employees need to learn to pick their battles–this one isn’t the one!
