Seriously. A barista is now considered a skilled union worker job? And they turned down a $30/hrs offer? AND they expect tips!!! They should try working in a real restaurant struggling for tips.

[@williamsrdan]

Regardless of skill, which requires knowing multiple drinks, and ability to produce hundreds a day, those people are doing the work that is required for the company to make millions. Why does corporate, that has zero interaction with customers and products, get the money brought in by someone else's labor?

[@c.s.mcleod7383]

@williamsrdan Does the barista go to a trade school 10 weeks a year for 4 years? Do they serve an apprenticeship program before getting their 'barista license'? Corporate provides the environment for customers to comfortably enjoy their lattes,not the batista.

There is a type of duck that nests in hollow trees, and one was in my sauna chimney one time when I started a fire. I heard all this scraping and scratching coming down the stovepipe, and reopened the stove door just in time to see this duck plop onto the smoldering pile of firewood. I snatched that duck out of there quick and put it outside, and it was OK after about 5 or 10 minutes.

True. Many people would love to have a job that pays $30/hr to make coffee.

[@WarHawk-]

Starbucks workers are protesting because they feel that they are overworked and underpaid. They seriously need to reevaluate their position. They are not going to work at Starbucks for 40-years then retire, so being a barista is not a career position, it's a temporary job that already pays relatively well and offers benefits, something which is not all that common for an 'entry level' job. One of their complaints is that there are not enough workers to adequately cover the shift, but what do they expect Starbucks to do about that . . . crap-out additional workers from their rear-end? If there are not enough people to work the stores then Starbucks could close-down the store putting EVERYONE out of work - is that what they want to see happen?

So Starbucks employees are protesting in California yet they just gave them a $20 minimum wage and now they're complaining it's not enough. Second they're complaining that there isn't enough staff help at the same time inflating prices on Starbucks products is just extremely expensive now. I don't even bother going to Starbucks because they're too expensive so what should happen here? Neither close some stores down or go to States where there's lower wages. Obviously these employees don't get it how expensive it is with all the overhead cost of all their stores it's not a cheap solution. The state of California is a liberal democratic party State no wonder why people are leaving this state because it's too expensive to live here, buy here, do a business here you name it
