Its a message to them as a corporation, play stupid games and you win stupid prizes. It has to hurt to mean something. a reply to: Bluntone22
Correct!
Still don't understand how they could justify firing the manager.
They were lefty, so they did it hoping to score some white guilt points so BLM would 'like' them on Facebook.

$25 million seems a bit high.
That's several lifetimes of earnings to 99% of the population.
Pain and suffering I suppose.

Starbucks will raise the price of the "double soy latte vente swillochino" and let their customers foot the bill. They will continue to do what they are doing and be more careful with their internal communications by eliminating incriminating emails and using a time delay for firing. This will also give them time to fabricate a rationale for such actions with the "show me the person and I will find a crime" technique.

60% ?! I though contingency fee was capped at 30%?
