Meanwhile they're opening new Boba tea shops next to the two closed Starbucks shops.

Adapt or die, SBUX. As a former shareowner (600 sh), there's a reason I sold my shares.

Adapt.

Shame on those Starbucks workers who falsely called 911 to harvest faux incident reports just to get a security guard.

Starbucks' CEO makes over 5000X what a typical Starbucks employee makes. They could pay the people who perform the labor 100X more than they currently make and still be just fine. Workers aren't even asking for that. But hey, they're just going to double down, keep union busting, keep raising prices (and blaming employees for that), and will destroy their brand and their business. All of these assholes are so greedy. The only way to stop them is to tax them into oblivion. No one, absolutely no one, should make 5000X the amount their workers make and no one, absolutely no one, should be a billionaire. Enough bullshit. The wealthy are depraved and deranged, addicted to wealth like crackheads are addicted to crack.
