Starbucks paid their new CEO Brian Niccol $96 million in just 4 MONTHS on the job.

Meanwhile, baristas were offered their lowest annual raise in years- just ~$0.30/hour.

Starbucks can afford to invest in baristas & offer our union a viable economic package - but they haven’t.

Starbucks workers in LA are being forced to work in areas impacted by the recent wildfires - even where the air quality is unsafe.

Management told partners that stores must open because “the community depends on us,” ignoring that some workers had to evacuate their own homes.

Y’all…we now have a union store INSIDE Starbucks Headquarters in Seattle!

Partners at the SoDo Reserve store voted UNION YES - just HOURS after we announced that 98% of SBWU baristas authorized to strike if necessary.

Our union is strong - and ready for whatever it takes 🔥

God forbid I just want to collect all the books that I possibly can, move into a mossy cottage in the darkest part of the woods, and make a lil home there amongst the animals and nature.
