A little Starbucks Christmas carol from our picket line!
We're still on ULP strike, and we're still asking customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS (gift cards included!) until 100s of unfair labor practices are resolved.

Stand with striking baristas and don't buy Starbucks ANYWHERE. Get that peppermint mocha (and those last minute gift cards) at your local coffee shop instead! #NoContractNoCoffee

Starbucks CEO makes $50,000 an hour —more than double what some baristas make in a whole year.
Tis the season to side with Bob Cratchit, NOT Ebinezer Scrooge.

I don't frequent Starbucks most of the year, but do stop in to get peppermint hot chocolate several times a week during the holiday season. It hasn't been hard to forego my beverages to support these folks.
Even if your store isn't unionized, it is a nationwide strike. There are other coffee shops.

Our demands are clear: Starbucks needs to stop union busting and finalize a contract with the pay, hours, and protections we need to succeed. #NoContractNoCoffee

The best strategy for Starbucks would be to come back to the table and bargain a contract in good faith with @sbworkersunited.org, but what do I know?
Starbucks turnaround will take time. This options strategy works if shares remain range-bound
