squee: It's because your nail polish might chip off and land in someone's drink. Apparently this was a problem, so they banned all nail polish :P

angel: Totally!!! ;]

Are you serious about the nailpolish? That sounds like a corporate excuse. Wow.

What are you doing with your hair? You HAVE to post pics when you're done--I can't wait to see what you come up with. =)

I don't understand why places like that don't allow dyed hair...I mean it's Starbucks, not a fucking upscale boutique.

Bugsy: Yeah, dead serious about the nail polish. I wouldn't be surprised if customers actually complained, though and that's why the rule was instated. For example, there's this woman who always complains about how cold it is in our store, so she called our corporate office and complained, saying that she was going to come in in about an hour and to turn the AC off...and corporate calls us. And ofcourse we had to, right? The stupid woman never shows up, it's blisteringly hot out, and our store heats up like an oven...all for one complaint. I'm surprised that they don't order us all to shave our heads or wear hair nets, too.

I'm not sure, yet, about the hair...I'm thinkin' of streakin' my bangs :] We shall see :]

Squee: I totally agree...it's not like the color of your hair somehow makes your latte-making abilities disappear. And you know, I totally broke dress code and wore purple dreds for about a week until my store manager told me to take it off. I didn't get one wierd look...just compliments on how cool it was. But, ofcourse this was in Berkeley, too.
