All workplaces have rules and regulations that employees must abide by. For Starbucks, one such guideline is that staff are seemingly not allowed to use their work oven to heat up personal items. At Starbucks, customers are able to purchase items such as sandwiches and other savory snacks which can then be toasted in the cafe\u2019s industrial oven. In a recent TikTok video, user @fugnarr uploaded a video of them making steak tacos while working a shift at Starbucks, with the employee detailing the full rundown of how they made their meal using the Starbucks convection oven. However, the video then cuts to an image of the workers, with the caption \u201cGoodbye Starbucks, that steak was fire.\u201d The video also shows what looks to be a \u201cnotice of separation\u201d document. Starbucks employee fired for cooking lunch in work oven The video, which now has almost 500k views, was captioned, \u201csteak so scrumptious HR investigated me for the secret recipe.\u201d The video can be viewed here: In the comments section of the TikTok, @fugnarr revealed that a coworker had \u201ctattled\u201d on them and as a result, their supervisor was notified about the situation. However, they didn\u2019t seem too bothered, even detailing the recipe for the steak tacos. \u201cTurkey pesto button x3 times then flip and 3 more Turkey pestos,\u201d they explained. The video is filled with comments from people showing their support for the ex-employee. \u201cThey should\u2019ve promoted you instead I\u2019m tired of the 3D printed sandwiches,\u201d one commenter said. While another wrote, \u201cYou were just reheating your lunch, wrongful termination.\u201d And while it is still unclear whether or not they were fired from Starbucks solely for reheating their food in the oven, a Starbucks worker explained in a Reddit thread that it is against policy for employees to do so. \u201cPer Starbucks policy and food and safety procedures, we are not supposed to warm up our own personal food we bring from home in the ovens.\u201d For all the latest entertainment news and updates, be sure to check out Dexerto\u2019s full coverage here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starbucks fires employee for making \u201cscrumptious\u201d steak tacos in work oven TikTok: @fugnarrA Starbucks employee was reportedly fired from their job after they were caught using their work oven to heat up and make their own food, with the worker uploading the situation to TikTok in a video that has now gone viral.
