Starbucks in downtown Philadelphia faced a firestorm after a story was posted to Facebook revealing that a “liberal” clerk loudly refused to let a uniformed city police officer use the restroom.
Philadelphia Police Sergeant Joe Leighthardt posted his officer’s the frustrating experience. In short order thousands of comments responded to Leighthardt’s post. Now find out Starbuck’s response on the next page:
Who wants gay coffee?
No intelligent person would patronize Starbucks. Those prices!
“the law is for all”….
brilliant sentiment, but starbucks has a policy, or law, that states PAY TO USE POTTY.
he should maybe follow that law.
i won’t even bother with the phallacy of “you pay the price’ of breaking the law. maybe a quick google search on police corruption and violent abuses would have ya singing a different tune. ya gotta get that boot out of your mouth first though.
Naahhh the employee misconduct says a lot about what kind of attitude your company has….
Nope.
If Starbucks is going to take a political side then they should face the monetary consequences. Screw Starbucks.
I don’t know. Your costume obviously makes you “special”
Whose orders was this employee acting under? If it was the employee on their own, then they should be fired.
No excuse for any of these employees or these businesses to refuse to serve LEOs. Places are hurting themselves by this attitude.
Well played. I am in my place now…
With a stunning rendition of the old kindergarten insult “nuh uh, YOU’RE dumb”.
Bravo.
