Starbucks to close 8,000 US stores for an afternoon of racial bias training.

Plot:
2 men wanted to use the Starbucks toilet for free
Same men sat down at a table not ordering any drinks or food
When asked to leave they refused
Analysis:
Employees called the sheriff because of lost revenue..
Probably standard company policy
Outcome:
Starbucks toilets can soon be used for free by non costumers during opening hrs
Prices on the SB coffees will go up with a few cents

What a sorry ass lame incredible stupid company management response !
The employee who called the police is no longer employed by Starbucks, the company confirmed on Monday.
On Tuesday, the Philadelphia police also released audio of a female caller who reported
“two gentlemen at my cafe who are refusing to make a purchase or leave.”
The one firing the female employee should be fired, & the company sued in court.

The Starbucks here allows people to sit in the cafe without making any purchase. I used to be in Starbucks all the time during my college days.

It's the same here but we don't know the particulars of this situation though, if the place becomes full of people it's customary to give up your table if you're not a paying customer and paying customers need the space...Any restaurant here will ask a nonpaying customer to leave if they need the table for a paying customer...

Well, Think about it a few more times ms. fish...
Fill up a coffee shop with lazy ppl who dont buy anything.. How long do you think the business will last ?
Besides students normally drink a lot of coffee and eat lots of sweet deserts. I can testify to that.

For terminating their employee who tried to run their business according to common sense

Maybe the two guys didn't need to use the restroom, let's face it, how many times do guys go to the restroom at the same time?...Maybe the two guys did have a reason to be at that Starbucks, who cried foul first?...Was it all staged with a call out person to point out the alleged racial discrimination after the cuffs were on?...

Just wanted to hold hands
Had to do a quick drug deal
Just needed to use the toilet, taking turns guarding the stall door

Or smoke some crack...
Lol,, I dunno.. I never visit StarBucks... wayy way, too fancy for my liking
Lessons learned..
If you (dont drink coffee) are male and want to visit the restroom with another male.
Dont go to StarBucks. Or very bad things will happen

There is no Starbucks close to me, I would have to drive 30 minutes or more to visit a Starbucks...

U could take away, asking them to leave would make them feel uncomfortable and that way might lose customers, so imo it's best to leave them alone.
Yeah, I used to drink Coca-Cola during my college days, now no more.
Starbucks was my hiding place, I was hiding from a girl, she stole my identity and became me.. I didn't stayed long in that college, I've transferred to another college..

Here's a pic of the closest Starbucks to me, it's in a mall about 35 min drive to the bigger city near me...
It looks harmless enough here, but I don't see a lot of men either lol...

Starbucks manager who called cops on black men 'demoted me because of my race' and targeted non-whites for removal from store, African-American co-worker claims
- Ieshaa Cash, 41, was a Starbucks shift supervisor in Philadelphia until last month
- She worked under store manager Holly Hylton, 31, last year but claims she was demoted and had her pay cut by Hylton
- Hylton sparked outrage by calling police on two black men for trespassing
- Cash says her boss was 'uncomfortable' around black people and targeted them for removal from the store
- Outrage has prompted Starbucks to close all its stores in the U.S. for a day next month for 'implicit bias' training
- Executive chairman Howard Schultz said he was 'ashamed' at what had happened
- Hylton has not responded to requests for comment
