Also a possibility.
Dfwgator does not fund Starbucks.
Your office is in the break room? Must be convenient.
: )
I still won’t go to Starbucks.
No more Starbucks for me
Like rockets raining down on their stores?
Chumps.
“Well... they are opening a new store in Iraq”
We’ll see how long that store lasts before it’s either bombed or the entire staff is gunned down in a mindless effort to send the West a “message”.
In my small store I used to buy 10 cups of Starbucks daily and stopped when they denied a request to send some to our soldiers. Now I brew a much better coffee myself for all my employees and save a lot of money, money that I am sending to Wounded Warriors.
I don’t hang around the break room much other than raiding a vending machine. I dine in my rather comfortable office upstairs with headphones on watching some classic TV.
When I did do lunch there, I was bugged to no end with people’s IT problems. Drove me crazy.
that’s it for me & Starbucks
sorry to the employees , because I TIP .....
If they are ashamed of Israel , I am ashamed to
be seen going through their doors
3 ears ago, I was given a $15 Starbucks gift card. There are two within sight of my office window and I still have about $10 on the card.
If you get coffee at Mcd’s it probably comes from either S&D, Gavina or Distant lands Coffee. In SoCal Gavina was the supplier (Gaviña is based in southern California. Founded in 1967 by Cuban immigrants) and they always supplied the best coffee I can remember, way better than that burned brown acid starflucks sells.
If I'm on the road (and I am often) it's McD's. I never go to Starbucks and I trust no one else.
Lots of businesses do not want to operate in a place where muslim terrorists are constantly trying to blow things up and kill people.
But Israel is not missing anything not having any Starbucks there...........
Unlike far-left fanatics I expect private businesses to perform to their own self-interest. In the same fashion, my self-interest leads me to not ever having had a Starbucks product in at least a decade if not longer. I wonder if a future world will remove both of these freedoms?
ISIS will spend big money there soon.... heh
and it doesn’t taste burnt
don’t they sell chocolate muffins or something you can spend it on?
