never spend my money there however I have been in with a friend while they get their expensive overpriced coffee and the people working there are always lily white, scruffy looking young kids.
I think on a post I gave the impression that I frequent Starbucks but my comment was only based on observation, when I pass by one or notice them in open places like Barnes and Nobles. I’ve only seen lilly-white employees for the most part, the scruffy young kids as you say.
My son-in-law bought me a regular coffee at a Starbucks once (I had a hard time finding “just coffee”). I couldn’t get over the price but then again, I was weaned on Navy coffee and ol’ coffee pots in LE stations, now that can get pretty STOUT.
Anyway, he was just being kind and wanted to treat me as he doesn’t frequent them either, although I noticed that he could interpret the menu and had to translate it for me...
