1. had no right to inject his politics into his work for the company He can't help himself - leftism is his religion. Even if his behavior tanks the stock price, he doesn't care. They all think this way. Kelloggs, PepsiCo, Target, etc.

Starbuck’s coffee tastes burnt to me. I think they do it on purpose to encourage people to buy higher costing and sweetened coffees.

Contrary to many rumors that float around the internet and surface every once in a while, Starbucks
has historically supported our troops. Donates many 10s of thousands pounds of coffee to our troops.
Their firearms policy is decent as well. It is basically "follow whatever the local laws are".
Can't really stand their coffee, but they get a bum rap a lot of time on conservative sites, much of which is undeserved.

So he can focus on even more pretentious foo-foo coffee shops.
Someone needs to start “One Buck Coffee” and run Starbucks out of business.

I get my coffee at WAWA. Starbucks is on my way to work and WAWA is two blocks out of the way but, I’m ok with that.

Will need to see what the next CEO does. I might actually stop boycotting them.

God laughs.
Starbucks, a leftist secularist corporation, is the meeting place of hundreds of thousands of Christians seeking fellowship and discipleship in groups of two or three.
And they’re paying my daughter as she works through Christian college. She’s also getting a fat 401k. Thanks guys.

Normally Id say they peaked, but there are plenty of examples where a founder retires and the business continues to win share.Politically, Schultz may be a leftist ass, but he not only built the business, but he also retired before, and when it flagged, rebuilt it. A business phoenix.
To: DCBryan1
I have this feeling that Schultz may have stepped down just before the Trump Administration starts asking questions about whether certain large corporations worked closely with the Democratic National Committee....

Starbucks perks the nastiest coffee in the USA. Who buys that stuff?Not me. I had a cup about 7 years ago and determined the severe indigestion and $$$$ wasn't worth it.

I worked at Starbucks many years ago.
The reason for the burnt flavor is the attempt to stretch the beans to make more cups of coffee.
Peet’s coffee costs about 12 cents a cup. Starbucks costs about 8 cents a cup.
It’s all about the money.
