$96,000,000 for 120 days of work. $15/hour for baristas who can’t get enough hours to qualify for benefits. That’s greed, not “the best job in retail.”

The grind & grift: (Starbucks) paid our CEO $98 million for the first four months of his employment with this company. They spent $81 million for a four-day manager's retreat in Vegas (in) June. It would cost less ... to finalize a multi-year union contract ... less than a single day's profit."

Hundreds of Starbucks baristas and labor organizers blockaded Starbucks' largest distribution center in York, Pennsylvania, halting distribution of syrups, coffee beans, and other supplies to the entire northeast.

This escalation is part of @sbworkersunited.org's ongoing strike.

THIS IS INCREDIBLY INSPIRING!

Please watch and share as Starbucks baristas demonstrate outside the company's biggest distribution hub.

Baristas are locking arms in front of lines of trucks.

This distribution center is Starbucks’ largest on the East Coast, which is why we’re showing up to send a message. We're ready to continue escalating our ULP strike until Starbucks does the right thing.

Trucks are still at a standstill at the York distribution center, with at least one recently turning around.

Starbucks could end this RIGHT NOW by finalizing fair union contracts and putting an end to union-busting! #NoContractNoCoffee

While executives and those at the top keep getting richer, Starbucks baristas aren’t making a livable wage.

Starbucks workers nationwide are fighting for a fair contract, wages, dignity, and respect on the job. #NoContractNoCoffee

We're still out here - and we're showing Starbucks executives how they’re failing every Starbucks partner EVERYWHERE.

We’re fighting for a future where we can actually thrive with resolution of ULPs and the hours, staffing, pay, and protections we need. #NoContractNoCoffee

Starbucks paid CEO Brian Niccol $96 million for 120 days of work — that’s 6,666 times what the median barista makes. We’re here today to say NO MORE CORPORATE GREED! #NoContractNoCoffee

Starbucks can run, but baristas won’t back down. Workers will be there every step until the company ends union-busting and negotiates a fair contract. #NoContractNoCoffee

Starbucks calls their workers “partners”. It’s time to actually treat them like partners.

We’re proud to be marching and protesting alongside fearless baristas who are escalating their Red Cup Rebellion. #NoContractNoCoffee
