Incredible. I love how Starbucks fought so hard to create a culture that's literally taking them down.
To the upper Management, CEO & DMs at Starbucks, you all are disgusting for the tactics you use against your own employees because they want to unionize. To the hard workers at Starbucks, you deserve better.
We sure do. I'm filing for my location ASAP.
they can still work, they can still serve coffe, right outside. and they all get to keep the profits. get the boilers and coffe goin.
This is not going to way they think it will. Starbucks on notice.
Guess I'll be supporting small business cafes until Starbucks gets their shit together.
Respect
STAY STRONG!!! YOU CAN DO THIS!!! ✊🏽💪🏼
Closing the store is a tactic they learned from Walmart organizing effort in SoCal. They claimed plumbing issues🤨
Starbucks, the original store in Seattle’s public market, was the very first place I drove upon getting my drivers license on my 16th birthday. You will NEVER have my business again. I have a very long, mean memory when it comes to corporations. I’m going to start picketing your stores in Wenatchee. Power to the people! You are going down!
No one cares
That last point hits HARD. That woman and her grandfather have been fighting for the same things some 60 years apart and (to paraphrase our current president) "nothing fundamentally changed".
All the power and support to unionizing Starbucks workers and to all unions!

CEO made 20 million last year.
How do we get money to these folks so they can keep up the fight. They’re not only unionizing for themselves as individuals. It’s bigger than them. The company is trying to wear them down instead of simply making their lives better. I’ve asked my sisters to give up their Starbucks coffee.
Powerful!
We must continue to fight for human rights and never give in to the profit driven machines destroying humanity.
Stay at it Memphis--We're with you!
#Solidarity 💜
Best of luck from the UK, solidarity.
I would rather shop at a unionized Starbucks...that way I know the price of my latte is going to help someone in need - the barristas! 💞🍀🇺🇸🍀💞
You can do this!
Keep it up Starbucks workers!! The more franchises that are unionized, the more bargaining power you will have!!

lol and the more automation they’ll implement
Stay strong with your brothers and sisters ❤️
Don't quit - that's what they want you to do - they want turnover. Call+ write NLRB and/or local labor lawyers (Or not local) or the ACLU. Let your community know what's happening - invite local press, tweet, upload anti-union attempts… Fight fight fight ✊Solidarity #UnionStrong
there was a recent store in my city that got unionized and it led me to apply for another store location in my area to try and grow pro union sentiment. These people are brave and courage's for speaking out against the injustice of union busting cause in the end we have nothing to lose but our chains
Power to the salts ❤
Keeping a good thought for the profoundly courageous folks involved in this vitally important struggle.
Keep the Faith.
United we Bargain, divided we beg. ✊🏽

I’m done with Starbucks until they stop this nonsense.
They won't stop.
@@stephenpowell5191 I don’t expect my one little self boycotting will have any impact. If enough people do though it might. Even if they don’t I’m just thoroughly disgusted and don’t wish to support that.
@@katahn I'm with you ✊
Scott Katahn, I'm with you too

Hey Starbuckaroos, if you pay your workers with platitudes, expect them to UNIONIZE
Someone needs to ORGANIZE A STARBUCKS STRIKE!! HIT THEIR BOTTOM LINE! That whole community need to band together and EVERY STARBUCKS WORKER IN THAT STATE NEED TO BE IN THE STREETS!! Then it needs to SPREAD STATE BY STATE!! Customers can stand in solidarity with their money!
This is your “progressive” corporations smh
#Union #Solidarity
F #Starbucks
If any worker winders why they should organize,ask yourself why the Company is SO DESPARATE TO FIGHT A UNION- it isn't because Unionizing going to favor the company, that's for sure- workers having Rights and a say Scares the Hell out of most firms- Simple as that!!
How is union busting not illegal?
It is illegal VERY ILLEGAL but it has to be proven. And sometimes that can be hard to do with the roundabout ways they do it.
My husband and I were homeless for about 6 months. We literally lived off of those free meals that we got on our days off. It would be our dinner
They say one of the reasons they are unionizing is due to lack of hours, but the one girl mentioned she was working 39 hours prior to that. Maybe she's a lucky few?
No she said she WAS at 39 then they cut her hours + benefits
To all the Starbucks workers. I truly hope you get what you are looking for and need. The leaders of this company need to realize, if it wasn't for all you dedicated employees, their business is nothing. The way they are treating you is criminal. May our higher power look down upon you and help you succeed with all your endeavors.
Yes. Labor creates all wealth!
caffeine boost for the algo! 🚀🚀🚀
Starbucks literally made my pregnant wife do closes, when she felt unsafe.
AMAZON WORKERS ARE REALLY FACTORY WORKERS. THERE IS AN ASSEMBLY LINE, RIGHT? GO FACTORY WORKERS! NOW THE BILLIONAIRES, SOON TO BE TRILLIONAIRES, ARE MAKING US PROUD OF JOINING THEIR WORLDWIDE LED LINE OF FACTORY WORKERS.
To quote a crazy Christian nut.
STRIKE AND STRIKE AND STRIKE AND STRIKE AND STRIKE AND STRIKE AND STRIKE AND STRIKE AND STRIKE.
Every enterprise is about profit
Stay strong! They will do anything to try and stop you .
YAWN.
I would boycott Starbucks.. but I never liked their over priced food and coffee. Sorry
They become unionized and still walk out and complain
Its amazing they have all those employees and did it without union but now union is better for them? Yes they made cuts. Look at whats going on in this world. Supressing the creation of new jobs isnt good. Its not all about you. What about the next person who needs a job? Things are set to get bad. Real bad. I would be scared to lose my job too but the union wont save a closing store. We will see how it goes
I was a union buster years ago at one of my jobs. I am a customer of Starbucks for 20 years. How many people here have been in a union? They are bullshit. Everyone thinks unions pay more and have better benefits. Most do. But their is a big downside to this system. Seniority and pay differences. My union I was in for 1.5 years I had to pay the same union dues as the guys who make way more then me. How would you like to make 17 hr and pay the same as the people
Who make 39 hr? Same as insurance? Seniority is the worst. I was 24 at the time and you had to be 40 plus to get the weekends off. 60 plus to get any holidays. All of the overtime went to the 55 and older. These older guys did not need the money as much as the 20 somethings. Screw unions…
It's not for you, but you are a sucker if you were paying the same dues as a new hire compared to the top pay members ( or you are lying here) because I never heard of any union that deducts dues that way. The union I was in did it by a math calculation of your hourly pay by hours worked- simple. Huge corporations treat their lowest employees like garbage often. Unions are a necessary.
My husband is in a Union NOW and everything you just stated is bullshit. My husband had a 401K and retirement plan at the age of 23. That’s what unions are gonna do for these young people. Everything else you said deserves no reply cause it’s ignorant!!! The itty bitty union dues are nothing compared to the backing and family you get from the union. Not to mention everything else that comes along with it. SOLIDARITY 👊🏽
My heart goes out to Starbucks workers. I feel workers need to be shrewd and calculated against the management. Know full and well all the dirty immoral tactics are kosher for them.
We have to play games on equal footings.
