Ever walk into a Starbucks, see all the tech looking mugs and

[teufelhunden]

I was in the southwest and visited a Starbucks. I got a mug that has a carabeener-like handle. It clips onto my military gear with ease. They're not available in the midwest, not anywhere I've seen. Now I have unique paraphanelia for when I get home.

Aaight.

You should be able to walk into any company owned Starbucks location now and find those mugs, they're part of the current promotion.


And yeah, Starbucks employees are treated fairly well-- 240 hrs/quarter [need to average 20 hours/week] and the employee [partner, as the company calls them] is eligible for 5 tiers of healthcare, the cheapest at around $20/month, dental care for about $10/month, vision for $3/month, stock options, 401(k), and some other stuff that I'm probably forgetting because I don't bother to take advantage of it.

Wussy coffee.


I don't drink coffee. Especially not the kind like rk over there drinks. In my house my dad is the only one that drinks it and he only drinks it black, so that's all I drink. But i'd still rather have cider.

Quik lives in northern MI - the nearest Starbucks is probably 70 miles away from him

Sad, but very very true.

I worked at a real coffee shop, and we offered...

Small.

Medium.

Large.

Everytime someone came in and ordered a 'Tall' or 'Grande' anything, I smacked them in...

Well, actually, I just gave them what they wanted, and then belittled them behind their backs.
