If Starbucks were smart, that’s what would happen. But then again, it’s Starbucks.
So, suffer your little monsters.
Starbucks on Strike: 1000+ Employees Walkout Over Clothes.
100%FedUp:
The last time I went to Starbucks the word “woke” wasn’t even in our vocabulary.
I don’t think I’ve missed out on much by not going there.
Except for the fact that I could’ve seen the baristas wearing a plaid shirt under their aprons, and maybe a khaki colored t-shirt.
Well, those wild and reckless days are over!
Starbucks is bringing down the hammer and making their employees endure needless hardship by….making them all wear a work uniform. Who does that? Except for just about every company out there.
This was just too much for the safe-space enthusiasts to endure.
So they united and are now protesting because they can’t “express themselves”. MORE
They’re expressing themselves quite clearly. I hear them saying, “Fuck you, boss!”
They’ll find out. Eventually.
Didn’t Joe DiMaggio advertise the baristas?….AKA Mr. Coffee…uniform not required….
Far left idiots hire far left idiots. A perfect match.
I had a Starbucks coffee once. And one sip is all I needed to toss it away.
I don’t drink burnt coffee.
The uninformed often push their stupidity to the point of becoming unemployed but a little more informed.
If you don’t like the boss/company, pack your shit and leave.
@Jelybean: Are you saying the uniformed uninformed should become the ununiformed unemployed informed?
@Claudia, I don’t get it.
Was visiting a friend in SoCal, reading the morning papers, Sunday morning. He got the LA Times and the OC Register, lots to read.
Starbucks coffee, tasted like swill, I recomended a place in Frisco(they hate it when you call it that) where I get my beans.
2 years later, same swill, “We like it.”
No accounting for taste or politics.
One thing I actually enjoy from Starbies: their willingness to bag up their used grounds and give to the community. Garden Grounds. I actually use them as chicken litter, I put them under the roost to catch the poop from 15 chickens. After 2 weeks, shovel it and toss out back.
I have the most incredible soil.
What? Clarabell the Clown suits?
…odd, isnt it, that a group of people so slavishly comitted to uniformity in thought resist uniformity in dress..
…Ive worn a uniform of one sort or another for my entire adult life, sometimes two in the same day. Uniforms are there, among other reasons, to project a professional appearance to customers.
So refusing them speaks volumes to the professionalism you can expect from employees at Starbucks…
Hoo Hoo Nay Nay

Do the coffee grounds help with smell?
Starbucks Sucks! Don’t bastardize coffee! It’s offensive!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
I grind the beans and make good coffee at home, but if I really want the Starbux experience, I’ll pour myself a cup, yell my own name out incorrectly, light a five dollar bill on fire, then scrape the ashes into the cup!
Maybe they can put that Women’s Studies degree to work for them next in a run down “bikini barista” outhouse in an industrial area.
You know what? It’s really not that difficult to make coffee, and you can buy a decent espresso machine for under $200 if you’re into that sort of thing.
I have only been to Starbucks twice in 24 years. Once in California and once in Calgary. I am conservative, and when I found out that the company hates conservatives and combined with their expensive tasteless coffee, I decided to spend my money elsewhere.
From the article: Summers said. “Customers don’t care what color our clothes are when they’re waiting 30 minutes for a latte.”
That made me laugh a bit. I spent 3 decades in the pizza business. We made the pizza, cooked it, packaged and DELIVERED to your door in LESS than 30 minutes. If you tell me I have to wait 30 minutes for you to splash some milk in a coffee….bye.
Don’t worry, it’s college graduation season. There’ll be thousands of freshly minted, highly indoctrinated graduates looking for work.
