Starbucks admits that cutting staff has backfired and now plans to hire more baristas
CEO of coffee chain hopes to improve customer experience by increasing staff in stores
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.
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.
When I was becoming a coffee fan/snob a decade ago, I'd occasionally get gifted bags of Starbucks beans. Or worse, grounds. Ugh.
I eventually end up using it but it's never good. Even my wife agrees now, although she still drinks McDonald's iced coffee without sugar regularly.
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.
