and US citizens can go get stuffed I suppose
Good luck getting them to work
Cheaper labor, eh?
Another great reason why I don’t go to Starbucks....
they won’t get along with the lesbians or the metrosexuals
Hey, if they work there for a couple weeks they’ll be able to afford a cup of their coffee .

Then it’s okay. :)
It looks like 10,000 Americans just got screwed by Starbucks. LOL!

Sue for preferential treatment. If the people hired are illegals, prosecute.
Hey, The Dems are only looking out for their voters here people.
“Starbucks says it plans to hire 10,000 refugees over five years in the 75 countries where it does business.”
Putting American liberal snowflakes out of work. Sounds like an opportunity to convert some snowflakes.
Does ANYONE really need any further convincing to #BoycottStarbucks ???
Stopped _ever_ going there a couple years ago, after corporation said they didn’t like us Christians.
Good luck in finding any that want to work. The German government admitted that only 34,000 of the million+ who invaded have actually gotten a job. The government also admitted that most of the million+ were not employable.
Good luck preventing them from spitting in your coffee
They’re opening shops in Syria, Sudan, and Afghanistan? Well, we all do what we know best.
Me as well. Their coffee is terrible and over priced. Screw them.
lol
I have never seen a company that is trying so hard to go out of business!
I will NEVER step into a starbucks again in my life.
