Under the heading of the strange.
Will the customers pay more ?
What an incentive program. Will the next shooter be a Starbucks employee?
so.....if we can talk someone into going out and shooting some more cops, do we get another raise?
WTF?
Pure marketing BS. You can bet that if it didn’t make economic sense or it cut into profits too much, he wouldn’t be doing it. My bet is that Starbucks’ prices are going up yet again and this is his way to shield the bad PR that will come from it.
Because of last week we’ll give you a raise in October. SAY WHAT?
Nothing strange here. This is how Liberals think.
The week of July the 4th, will warrant you a raise three months later. Why? Well it was a tough week.
I suspect raises were on the way anyway, and Starbucks decided to capitalize on them publicly on the backs of dead police officers.
Why do these workers deserve this? It makes no sense.
That is, the ones they don't fire.
Did they name it DinDu Nuffin Raise?
So should the employees be “happy” about all the deaths?
More importantly, is the employer now made “happy”?
What the heck does giving a raise have to do with anything that’s happened this week?
Yes, of course, the “raise” comes at the expense of the customer... which I’m not, never have been and never will be.
BTW, Starbucks made the trifecta being on my lists of companies that support LGBT, selling of baby parts and BLM.
Do the employees now wear uniforms and prefer to wear cut-off jeans and tank tops?
I'm glad I never worked for a company whose CEO made company policy decisions based on ever-changing, ever-boiling social issues.

Time to sell shares if you have them.
Like what damn fool CEO gives raises because of this?
Starbucks had already planned the raises weeks ago.
it was in an article about a week or so ago or so, planned employee raise and coffee price raise and somehow the computer started the coffee raise early. there was article about them giving customers credit.
So this was already in the works, just reworded to suit the moment in media.
There was a story recently about how the CEO of Starbucks likes to make headlines about how generous he pays people (in context of raising minimum wage) but with each raise he cuts back on hours and employees are taking home less while service tanks.
Remember Starbucks had a short lived policy, in which they were going to discuss racism and racial issues??
I think this is definitely a “HUH” moment.
And makes you wonder, how the heck are these people running a successful major business, if this is how they think.
Hope these leftist creeps from Seattle spend themselves into poverty and bankruptcy.
Does this mean that there will be no more violence after this week?
Starbucks workers should have received a raise sooner and all this violence wouldn’t have occurred.
So this was already in the works, just reworded to suit the moment in media.

In other words, trying to squeeze some corporate PR out of a national tragedy.
That’s pretty sick.
