Starbucks gave their CEO $96 million, then laid off 1100 workers

I don’t think they need your money or mine. Local cafés do. ☕

They should have laid off the CEO. They would have saved themselves a ton of money. Big corporations always screwing the little guy/gal

@Elisbch You know whats funny, I knew someone who worked in a county job where they were laying off the lower level workers.
I asked why is it they always cut the lower paying jobs of the people who actually do the work.
I was told that the theory was the upper levels can always work down but the lower levels can never work up.
Well, I am still anxiously waiting to see someone running a snow plow or fixing a pot hole wearing an expensive suit.
@Adrift I've heard something similar, myself. It's an excuse made to stifle ambitious workers who do want to go higher in their workplace. It's an arrogant and condescending attitude. And bad for the business in the mid to long term.
