Interim Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz reportedly lashed out at a coffee chain barista who was leading a unionization drive at one of the company’s California locations, telling the worker: “If you hate Starbucks so much, why don’t you go somewhere else?” The alleged encounter between Schultz and the 25-year-old barista, Madison Hall, took place at Long Beach Airport on Friday, Hall has claimed. Schultz, 68, has embarked on a tour of Starbucks locations nationwide in an apparent bid to dissuade his employees from voting to join unions, according to the pro-union news site More Perfect Union.
Rah Rah Rah until it happens to you, LOL!! BTW, your coffee tastes like dirt. Really bitter dirt.

Unionization will kill all their jobs.
*$ is ALREADY overpriced crappy fast food that's factory prepared and heat'n'eat, like a gas station store.
They can't raise their prices another 20% to pay off the union. The stores will close.
The non union stores will see the reality of this.
If they still have a brain cell, they will rethink their position and get a REAL job somewhere else.

Serves this horrible leftwing corporation right. Their coffee is horribly bitter, way too expensive, and the place is crawling with commies.

You see, dear readers, if that coffee sweatshop were unionized, they wouldn't benefit from all the cheap labor crashing our border.
Plus, a CEfreakenO stoops to trash talk a coffee server??? You kidding me? This sounds like the Chick Fil Let drive thru abuser all over agin.

I liked Starbucks. Not for their coffee, for their used coffee grounds. Made great mulch and compost material. Would buy a Perrigrino in trade when I picked up because the coffee itself was bitter swill.

Starbucks has always been about great coffee. But we are much more than that.
Coffee has the power to fuel human connection—bringing people together and building community all at once. Our mission is to inspire and nurture the human spirit, one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time. That means working to strengthen the communities we serve. And because we know that it is our partners (employees) who know their neighborhoods best, our impact in local communities is most meaningful when it begins with them.

Unions will kill off Starbucks. Even trendy libs will only pay so much for a 10 oz. cup of coffee. Taster's Choice and Maxwell House will be quietly brewed and consumed in its place.

"‘Why don’t you go somewhere else?’" sounds like something one of us would say to a commie lefty but coming from this guy really adds some tone to the question, which is really not a question.
