Maybe sacking the jobs of those being responsible for this policy is in order.

Attention Skybird. I read your above post and must warn you that i found some spelling mistakes! This shouldn't be happening with someone of your standards! No i did not find 1 or 2 nor even 3 but 9....NINE!

Tip is for those who serve me only, not for the company itself. Starbuck's act makes me throw.

Not only do they exploit the farmers by manupuliating the coca bean price (fortunately this has already improved these days, thanks to "fair trade") but they do exploit their workers as well

Shame for such a famous company. Starbucks should have got better policies in handling these kinds of stuff. They should try to share, rather than putting the tips into their own pockets.

English is not Sky's primary language.

Starbuck's only serves over priced battery acid and that is me being polite.

Are sod it let's give them hell, a mate of mind once made a comment it's like drinking someones vomit mixed in with gunge from the bottom of the sea. :rotfl: :rotfl:

I admit I am guilty of laziness. I know the correct spelling in most cases, and have an easy-to-access digital dictionary as well, maybe I mess with correct words and grammar at times, but I type extremely fast.

The typos you count - are the shameful result of that speed.

Completely my own fault, no excuse.

RickC Sniper · 03-22-08, 01:30 PM

As long as I can understand what someone is trying to say I don't care about their spelling.

I agree tips are for the wait staff. For the managers to take this money by policy is wrong. It appears that in California it is also illegal.

Starbucks has taken a few hard hits lately. This certainly won't help their stock value any.

I'm with Mr Pink on this one, I don't tip.

Torplexed · 03-22-08, 04:27 PM

I tip on a ratio that is proportional to bust size. :p

Jimbuna · 03-22-08, 04:59 PM

Awesome!!
