How about the concentrated coffee that came in the C-Rations?

Are you a frigging illegal lawyer?

Your PC word trick of using refugees instead of illegals is like a little pregnant.

Anyone hiring anyone without legal citizenship can go to jail, be fined or both.

Refugee = overused PC term to hide illegals from our immigration laws.

Howard Schultz has always been a bat $hit crazy PC moonbat.

Who needs their expensive burnt coffee, anyway?

Drive through any McDonalds, and get a large McAfee coffee, hot coffee or ice coffee, for about a dollar. Much better.

“I am just a cheapskate.”

Me, too. Not only that, I don’t drink coffee.

To all of the FR stock gurus:

How about starting a topic area that predicts company stock movements WRT Pro- or Anti-Trump statements by the corporations’ executive teams?

Might be entertaining, at least, and profitable at most.

I am not an illegal lawyer.

Persons that have been admitted to the country as a Refugees are here legally. People who enter the country illegally are not here legally.

Refugees and Illegal Aliens are not similarly situated.

I went a few times several years ago when I was working and even then I couldn’t get over how expensive they were. I worked hard for that money and I just couldn’t bring myself to pay that for coffee.

It is still better than Starbucks. I think I may have a couple of packets in my old footlocker with some uniforms, maps, and notebooks from my Army days. And I still have my set of “sticks” for doing my 13E fire direction calculations to get the quadrant for the guns. M-109A1, 155mm.

I was forced to buy woodland BDUs even though I was processing out. I think I wore them twice. Sold them to an Army surplus store almost immediately after returning home. Too hot. Preferred fatigues.

More WINNING!

The idiot should be replaced. A CEO's job is to create, maintain and grow value for shareholders.

This one used investor's money to invest in his own personal Social Justice Warrior crusade and destroy some $5BILLION in market cap in a few days!

He should be out of work immediately.

I’m trying to find a substitute for my favorite coffee - I buy the beans and have it ground.

Anybody have a similar for coffee for Café Verona: Roasty Sweet and Dark Cocoa.

I love the flavor of this coffee, so I’d like to find something similar. I do have a bag of beans - ready to be ground, but I don’t have a coffee grinder. Have to find a neighbor who has one.

This is a serious thing for me .. so please try to keep from being too cute.

No one seems to notice, but the STARBUCKS Trademark has a STAR and CRESCENT in it.

“If SBUX said, “In honor of black history month, we’re hiring 10000 blacks.” they’d have the same problem.”

Starbucks also has an initiative to hire 10,000 Veterans.

That policy is not discriminatory against non veterans.

The moment Starbucks says “In our stores in the United States we will only hire people that are not Refugees,” there will be a problem.

Some of their stuff tastes good, but it’s way overpriced.
