I’ve stopped going to Starbucks since the union busting began. None of my locations are unionized.
I will return once they are.
I’m not sure I would go back even if they are unionized. It’s shitty coffee made by a chain that is very eager to ignore labor laws that are inconvenient. I’ll stick with my local coffee shops that actually give a shit
I stopped going to them because their coffee is gross. Additionally the line in the morning clogs the street i take to get to work.

Think they might win their lawsuit to make all of us slaves?
Agreed. But it’s likely because Howard Shultz finally handed over the reins. He is such an anti-union ideologue that he was willing to risk the health of his own company rather than make a deal
Does anyone know if there’s a way to identify nearby unionized stores? I’d like to only go to my unionized Starbucks or unionized Trader Joe’s, if there’s any of those close to me.

Jesus christ, first time visiting that horrible site I’m greeted with a purple, full page, text box to submit my email address to “never miss a new video”… what the fuck? Who in their right mind sits down and says “yes, this is just what we need”
Holy shitsnacks! You are unfortunately correct. I was not bludgeoned by the purple sledgehammer the first visit.
Here, try this alternative, now with less retina syphilis (they still ask for email tho) :

Oh shit, my regular store is unionized, that’s fuckin fantastic.
Lucky! Mine is too far for convenience, which is the whole point of Starbucks coffee.
I know google-fu
Show me
Do you think those are search results you’re reading?

Good. Every hourly job should be unionized
Why only hourly?
“why just BLACK lives?”
Nobody said other positions SHOULDN’T be, just that EVERY hourly position SHOULD be. And I agree. Salaries positions should also be, but hourly employees are usually on the lowest rungs of the ladder.
But management and c-suites don’t need unions. They already have the power hourly just doesn’t have.
You’re overlooking the hundreds of thousands of everyday salaried workers being laid off in the last couple years by drawing a line that doesn’t exist between them and vague “hourly” workers you describe here - I have a good friend in an hourly position that makes $60/ hr with good benefits, and one that makes around $40/hr with crap benefits from his salaried position, both were laid off for no reason last year in one of these rounds of indiscriminate, unjustified firings solely to juice stock dividends.
No reason to not full court press on this issue FROM ALL WORKERS- labor needs to be unionized, PERIOD - McDonalds or Microsoft, all of it. Nobody is even talking about the relatively non-existent number of people in the c suite here? HUGE ocean between them and the salaried workers at their companies.
Good job with the solidarity there, bud. The best way to rouse support is to be confrontational toward anyone who is trying to join in, lmao. Why should this guy care about your movement if you don’t care about his?
I don’t care what the second part of your message says, because I don’t care to read past the dumb capital words you put in for drama.
You have a lot of opinions about things you refuse to even read. Why should anyone take yours seriously?
Because I’m already on your side, and you’re still annoying. Good luck convincing anyone who actually disagrees with you, which is the only thing that matters.
Yawn, not reading that whiny ass comment.
“I’m not going to work to improve my skills or my arguments, and will instead continue to fail”. Whatever you want to do, lol
Fuck your tone policing.
Tone policing! Hahaha. That’s a hilarious concept. Fuck your tone policing-policing, then, lmao.
Wow, you just don’t get it do you?
Or maybe you don’t?
I’m sorry but are we eating the onion with this website?
To demonstrate its good faith to understandably skeptical workers, the company also agreed to let them receive credit card tipping
Have the baristas not been getting credit card tips?!?!
Just looked it up. Starbucks I guess recently added the tipping option to stores but didn’t enable that at union stores.
Holy fuck. So Evil.
