STARBUCKS GOSSIP? Link here!
In many places in the United States homeless individuals, many who had housing not so long ago, are forced to find safe places to stay such as Starbucks, other coffee houses, public libraries and parks, in order to stay out of the weather, have a place to use the toilet (especially difficult for women having their periods while sleeping in vehicles).
In some places Starbucks employees have been sensitive and in others they are jerks. We know of a Starbucks that gives food that would go into the garbage cans to people who sit for hours until closing beating the cold, we know of a Starbucks were employees put left overs outside on tables before they left for the night until the rich local bitches decided they didn't want to "attract" homeless, we know of a Starbucks were people (including me) have sat all day on one coffee because it was cold and a public holiday so no libraries were open. We know of Starbucks were there is both a rush of people coming in to pick up expensive coffees and others who sit for hours nursing a tea (while they go hungry).
We believe that a business that serves food or drink can ask a person to leave if they have stayed too long, but do so nicely, respecting the person's humanity, rather than resort to tactics or causing a humiliating scene. We also believe there is corporate KARMA, just as there is individual KARMA... so there by the grace of God (or Goddess) go I.
