A message to Seattle – if you really want to implrove business, take a look at this and take note! No prizes for guessing who the Penguins are. Every DM and above should also take serious note of the message – but then again many won’t – as they say:

“there are none so blind as those who will not see”

Starbucks -v- Labor Laws

Why do Starbucks flaunt labor laws?

Why do Starbucks have so many law suits against them by former managers due to violations of the “exempt” status as defined by the NLRB?

If Starbucks is fair to its employees and treats them with “respect & dignity”, why have the National Labor Relation Board SLAPPED them repeatedly?

It will be interesting to see when the economy shows real signs of picking up, just how many employees will “vote” with their feet and walk off into other jobs.

Starbucks has a serious internal problem with its management structure and managerial style that stockholders need to seriously question!
