Big Labor enjoying success in bringing Starbucks to its knees

[Polishprince]

Hundreds of locations have already folded as Big Labor continues the attack on the world's larges coffee chain.

The success of the Coffee Waitresses International Union in organizing pickets and strikes against them has forced SBUX brass to shutter the stores and put thousands of Gen Z types whose skill set is limited to pouring coffee out of work.

The great coffee collapse is going to be like the great steel collapse, the coffee waitresses are going to have to learn to code.

I bet had they joined the Teamsters it would have carried more weight.....That said even the Teamsters would not want any part of that crowd.

Union lawyers and leadership needs to be more in tune with the workers and their positions and negotiate to better all, too often they just want confrontation an litigation that leads to lay offs and firings further down the line of contract talks.
Getting a kick out of going after the ''the man'' sometimes does more harm than help to the worker.

Just my observation from having being a self employed and non- union worker and card carrying member.

Wendy's is actually scheduled to close "hundreds" of underperforming stores.

Wendy's to close hundreds of U.S. stores as low-income consumers cut back

McD's closed 200 stores a couple years ago.

McDonald’s Is Closing 200 Locations This Year—Here’s What We Know

Blimpies closed 2000 stores.

https://www.thestreet.com/restaurants/61-year-old-subway-rival-blimpie-quietly-shuts-1900-locations

So actually what we got with this AI generated joke of a video is


"Business as usual",

"Underperforming stores close".

If Republicans didn't LIE, they'd have NOTHING to say!
