once upon a time, starbucks was somewhat of a hot place to work for people who would otherwise be flipping burgers to pay for college. they would hire hotties. and still today starbucks offers decent benefits to its workers, college scholarships, and a number of other benefits that other food service businesses would never offer. sure they are no saints and they may have many problems but there are very many worse jobs.

bless starbucks. i lets me make a stop in oklahoma city without having to consume dunkin donuts piss water.

being too successful is perhaps the greatest fault because that always invites suspicion, envy and ill will. however, they have made this country better by civilizing the coffee drinking masses. oh im not joking.
