He should get together with target’s CEO and open a starbucks in every target. I’m sure the refugees would love to work in a store where either biological gender can enter the bathroom of their choosing.

I’d pay to see that which may be a significant increase to target and starbuck’s revenue.

I don’t know anything about their stock price, but I do know that their coffee tastes like burned crap!

Thanks for the note. Heh, I try not to do that, but I do it all too frequently none the less.

I kind of wish that Starfucks coffee didn’t taste like burned shoe leather, so that I could have honestly told them that I was boycotting them at any of a dozen points over the last several years.

However, Starfucks coffee DOES taste like burned shoe leather, so I couldn’t do that. Too bad.

It’s a good question. I’ve often thought if there was some conspiratorial organization who infiltrated CEO’s and board rooms and who may also contact and threaten the CEO themselves.

Don’t worry where the Dot.Com CEO’s and executives came from. They’re just global political tools because their product is a global product.

There is a Starbucks in the Tuscaloosa, Alabama Target. I just assumed there was one in every Target.

I haven’t shopped at Target since the bathroom scandal so I don’t know how many customers still frequent that particular Starbucks.

Hiring refugees and veteran may make for an interesting mix. Don’t know many vets who have a lot of love for cowardly jihadis.

Howie's not leaving, even though he's worth $3B+.

He's going to "help" with Starbuck's "high-end" business.

Starbucks can take their bitter-a$$ coffee and stick up their collective political a$$es. Anybody that pays that much for a cup of something-coffee needs his head examined.

In its announcement Wednesday, the coffee chain highlighted that it has already reached its goal - set in 2013 - of hiring 10,000 veterans and military spouses within five years.

Then they should be able to publish the names then.

High end...haha.... they’ve already discovered there are enough dumbasses out there who like the opportunity to be soup-nazied into some crazyass ordering vernacular so that when they correctly recite it to some dweeb who can’t write his/her own name in cursive they get a frigging ‘good call’ nod from the dipshit behind the counter.... All for what used to be the price of a very good breakfast meal with real meat, eggs, potatoes and what not. Fools

Apparently he announced the plan to resign _before_ his “10,000 refugees” comment.

Now they are either running an ad or announcing on the local news about their pledge to hire 10,000 veterans.

Charred-bucks.

To be honest, their excuse for coffee is so bad I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t want veterans working there!

And that’s not dissing veterans in any way!!

If Starbucks were to hire muslims, then they’d have to take the “Double-Smoked Bacon, Cheddar & Egg Sandwich” off the menu.
