You may be getting more than you bargained for in your mocha. The CEO of Starbucks is urging his baristas to badger customers about race relations.
Latte lovers took to Twitter urging everyone to "race together" to other coffee shops that will simply serve hot beverages without hot-button topics.

Those cartoons are pretty funny, but unfortunately some of the head honchos at these corporations don't have a clue and are way out of touch with middle class Americans. Most Americans go to Starbucks for a relaxing break from life. The last thing anyone wants is to be engaged with a complete stranger about a controversial topic. Starbucks could put a couple tables out of the way and label it the "debate section" if they really feel the need to do this.
ReplyDeleteThank you for commenting! I wonder though, if such a Debate Section would remain empty. :)
