Lee and Starbucks

hi everyone
thank you to those of you that have been reaching out to Cam and I over this last few days. And for those who dont listen, watch or read the news..... Starbucks Australia has decided to close 61 of the 84 stores in Oz and one of those 61 just happened to my beautiful Ballina store.
Of course I was shocked and very upset by the decision with me and my team sharing many many tears and the worry about "what now" and the whole bullshit thing about needing money to live.
BUT
I am happy to report that I am doing fine and even happier to report that every single one of my team have either gotten other jobs or are in the process of picking a new job. Yes I use the word picking because we have been approached and reached out to by SOOOOOOOO many other businesses offering work that they are lucky enough to have a choice of what they want to do next. That makes me so happy and proud of them as it is a testament to their hard work and proves what a great bunch they were.
As for me, I am also very lucky to have many offers on the table and very blessed for all of them. I guess my choice is what is best for Cam and I at this time in our lives.... with him graduating in 11 weeks and me being FRICKEN EXHAUSTED!! So I'll see where life takes me but I do know I plan some good quality beach time, playing with Oliver and loving my husband. (Corny I know but very true).
So for now I have one last day at my store tomorrow watching the trucks take everything away (insert tears here) and then I am officially done. Of course I am throwing a massive bash at my house next weekend for all ex-Starbucks partners so that'll be fun and then I am free. So we'll see.........
