With cheese and croutons?

I think we’ll see 30k before we see 100k again.
Not a good time to be in risk assets.

If the market starts selling off it will definitely drop. People borrow a lot of money to buy risky assets
Not for twinks with blue hair.😂
The culture war was manufactured by the bourgeoisie to avert your attention from the class war they are waging upon you.

Starbucks makes 80 billion in revenue and pays over 2 billion in dividends yearly. The contract that sbwu is proposing ($17 hr starting wage, minimum staffing of 3 baristas) would cost less than one average days revenue. The workforce that actually produces that revenue deserves a fair slice of the pie.
How much of the pie?

I am not saying the pay is too high but some jobs are not meant to support a family.

Those workers should get as much as they can possibly get, but they won’t get any of my money because I’m not paying for Starbucks, overpriced coffee

Do YOU think that someone working full time hours at Starbucks should be able to afford a family?

As much as they can negotiate for. That coffee is pure profit. Blows my mind when I have walked in there and see the price of things, and the people that lineup to just fork it over every day.

Yep. If the company is making that kind of profit, absolutely. Just because I don’t feel the service and product is worth it doesn’t mean a lot of people don’t and they don’t make a lot of money.

Probably even your neighbors in the trailer park would have problems supporting their family on $17/hr. We could debate the merits of capitalism and wether the fruits of a workers labor should afford a life of luxury for the likes of Brian niccol while the worker themself struggles until the cows come home (spoiler alert: I don't think so), but all that aside $17/HR is a very reasonable ask.

A big issue they are fighting for is the company strategy is not to allow anyone to get fulltime hours. If shifts open up at a store instead of letting an existing employee claim the hours they hire a new employee and keep everyone under say 30 hours a week so nobody qualifies for benefits. It's part of why they're asking for minimum staffing levels.

Where I live $17 an hour wont even get someone to apply. If you’re not starting around $20, your not getting many applicants.

Starbucks has taken the position. They will just close the stores that organize that’s what they’ve done here.. total scumbag company

I don't drink coffee. I'm definitely going and getting a lemonade at my local unionized shore when they finally get a contract and telling them congratulations.
