Their hearts are in the right place, anyhow.

But the real problem is what skills does a machine gun operator or a tank driver really know about making a frappachino, or even knows what "vente" means. How much do baristas make anyhow?

It would be a lot better to encourage people like Erik Prince at Academi to hire veterans for jobs that utilize the skills they learned in the military. Further, Academi pays a lot better.

Starbucks chases ethos like a cat chases a laser pointer.

Instead of looking for a 'corporate philosophy' they need to do their investors (and customers) a favor and concentrate on making decent coffee and hiring people based on their ability to make coffee and keep everything else out of the workplace.
 
Veterans used to be able to come home to good paying jobs. Now we cheer because they can get a job poring coffee.

Better look at employment stats, Mr Try To Stir Shit Up On Every Thread.

Then you get shellacked and double down on dumb

Liberals have demonized businessmen like Erik Prince who have created companies to help veterans get employment which helps them utilize the skills they learned in the military.

I agree that a combat veteran would most likely be out of their element in Starbucks. But we need to open up more jobs in fields like Bounty Hunting and personal protection, that would be of interest to the men and utilize their skills they have honed.

Poring coffee and bounty hunting as opposed to good paying manufacturing jobs......................Maybe they can combine the two and barely keep their heads above water.

Bounty hunting can be very lucrative. At least as lucrative as toiling on an assembly line, and not nearly as spirit killing.
 
I remember the military coffee in the huge rectangular tins. Some of them dated decades before the current one. There was no lattes.

Don’t see many veterans lining up at Starbucks

Decades? Seriously?
Back in the 1970's when I served. We used to hear about how there was waste in the military with ships throwing all types of things out over the fantail. But certain things were not. The rectangular tin seemed to be the way of packaging a lot of products and tins were around from at least WW 2. How stale can coffee get once it is that way? It wasn't the best tasting as it was and is probably the most used products that military personnel come across.

Starbucks really needs to make their Drive-thrus more Humvee-friendly for the military crowd.
