Starbucks should appeal this ridiculous decision to the courts; the problem with the NLRB is that it is stacked with pro-union types and “professors” who never did a real day’s work in their life, nor had to deal with anyone working for them.
I bet senior management at Starbucks were big supporters of Obama and more generally left-wing rats. Well Obama and the left are big supporters of organized labor and a unionized work environment. So Starbucks management the NLRB made a decision, Suck it up! Live with it; this is the work environment you have supported for years.
