We don’t need any six dollar a cup coffee.
Just shut down any store which has strikers out front. Keep it down for a week. Then, re-open.
Rinse, repeat.
Oh Noes! What will people do not being able to buy their overpriced burned coffee at Star*ucks? Logic says they will get their caffeine fix elsewhere and like it, and never return to Star*ucks. I think that it’s awesome that Star*ucks baristas and their union are the ones teaching people they don’t need overpriced crappy coffee and cutting Star*ucks business so that jobs and locations eliminated.
The workers should offer to buy the location. See how many wealthy parents would invest for their kid to be an owner of a Starbucks.
Most federal employees are unskilled, but they unionized.
