Later that day, Starbucks Gestapo representitives admitted that the punishment was not as severe as they would have liked before showing gathered reporters a briefcase full of human
left hands that they had collected earlier that week in another investigation…..

ICallB.S., looks like Dems prefer to shop at the Gestapo: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/14/democrats-republicans-dis_n_1596310.html

Well….what would you expect….with George Schultz & the “safe” needing to make every penny count….we can’t let employees steal us blind…..so don’t cry over spilt beans…..Oh well. It seem
such a trivial pursuit of people that the store wanted to make public to keep others in line. Next
fingernail pulling begins & electric shock collars.

This type of interrogation would never occur in a unionized shop. Welcome to Romney’s America, as employees you have no rights and are guilty until the company decides otherwise, which they
won’t do because that would make them look weak, need to make examples out of the worker ants
so the others shake in their boots and stay in line.

As to blame here, it is not a federal matter as it is within Montana’s control. Welcome to
Brian Schweitzer’s Montana.

...and hotfishmt, I believe the employees at the Safeway Starbucks kiosk are employees ofSafeway, not Starbucks.

Hay…Mr Moore: I bet they all get a cut of the $$. Seeing that both companies make some residual off each cup of latte. I still say the bru ha ha was made public so as to keep any current & future
employees in line….???? wana bet.

hotfishmt, you got much wrong here with your assertions. Instead of making bets, you shouldcheck your facts. Start with that Mr. Schultz’s first name is Howard, not George.

Mr. Moore: I apologize…..with me not having one Starbucks….ever, I at least got his last name right…and the importance of his first name right…is trivial to say the least. I grind my own beans &
enjoy coffee at my place.
Seeing that Howard/George is making $$$ hand over fist and getting large bonus money….by
closing & firing stores & people to make the red ink disappear…then hoping the stores in China
make for a bigger bonus in 2013….??? The Kisok in Polson is just a small potato & the people
caught in a inside power struggle from some wana be manager.
