HOW DID IT GET THIS BAD AT STARBUCKS? Have you noticed hefty wait times at Starbucks? Baristas are consistently working understaffed shifts & facing chronic hour cuts - & both customers & workers suffer. Hear what baristas are saying about the situation - & how we can fix it.

Tomorrow is Shareholders Day for Starbucks. Union allies are holding 100+ "union solidarity sip-in" events to send a strong message to shareholders: Starbucks needs to finalize fair contracts with the wages, staffing, & protections baristas need to thrive NOW. Enough is enough, Starbucks.
