Oh CEO who commutes to Seattle from LA in a private jet, they weren't cut because of the hopes in the equipment. The labor was unionizing, that's why they were let go.
“Over the last couple of years, we’ve actually been moving labor from the stores, I think, with the hope that equipment could offset the removal of the labor. What we’re finding is that that wasn’t an accurate assumption of what played out,” Niccol said.
Can Starbucks please die already?
I say this as a native Seattleite, who used to love going to actual coffee shops, comfy hangout all day and study or do work on a laptop... type coffee shops...
Untill Starbucks appropriated that aesthetic, and then turned into a corporate fast food franchise, and drove basically every actual independent coffee nook out of business.
Fuck Starbucks, fuck everyone who thinks their coffee flavored milkshakes are coffee.
... I will die on this hill.
The only time I get Starbucks is when I am in a new city and busy, like for work. Since it is a chain I can know that I will get the exact same thing in the exact same quality essentially anywhere in the country.
To me it's a really nice safety net if im stressed or anxious and far from home and my local coffee shops.
They closed like half the Starbucks in my city. Every single one that considered Unionizing was shut down.
But out came a LOT of new local coffee shops, and more are opening.
Looks like you fucked up real good, Starbucks.
Anti-union bullshit. I mean that towards Starbucks and the staff reduction. Don't support these clowns.
Still not gonna shop there
Wake me when they realize selling shitty, over-roasted coffee was a mistake.
... selling it for $6 too.
Fuck Starbucks!
lol Who did they put in charge of the cuts... Dogey Felon Musk?
Why don't they replace them with IA? Huh?
Internal affairs?
iA Financial Group?
