Customers and employees slam Starbuck's "open bathroom" policy.

Text Drivers are Killers

Joe Biden - "Time to put Trump in the bullseye."
Everyone knows this is stupid. The homeless and illegals will turn starbucks into a sewer. Fire this moron CEO who thinks tv network opinions are more important than what the customers and employees and shareholders think.

may 21 2018 In a Starbucks subreddit, people are voicing concerns that the new policy will lead to stores being filled with homeless people and drug users. One user who claims they work at a Chicago Starbucks wrote that a homeless person using the bathroom got into a fight with a customer and police requested to see the store policy before taking action.

“This is exactly the kind of behavior that I fear will drive all the regular customers away, at least from urban locations. Opposing racism is nice and all, but it is not the responsibility of Starbucks to resolve all urban problems at one location let alone turn its stores into homeless drop-in centers,” another user wrote in response.

On another thread debating the new policy, a Starbucks customer expressed similar concerns. “I can't see how this will work in urban areas with large homeless/mentally ill populations... I just worry about how many employees will be put in danger (or get fired) until this happens,” the user wrote.

Someone claiming to be an employee who works at a store in the loop in Chicago said they hate the new policy because the store bathrooms have turned into a hub for drug activity. “We haven’t been allowed to change our bathroom codes since April. So almost all the junkies and homeless people know the code now. About once a week we find needles, drug baggies, blood all over the toilet or walls,” the user wrote.
 
Let's bring back the principle of Free Association. A business should be allowed to refuse entrance to anyone for any reason. We let homeowners do that - let business do it too.
 
Starbucks is now the Public Bathroom. I'm not sure if all the Toadies want to hang around sipping their Lattes, staring at their Laptops, ... and smelling raw sewage seeping out of the bathroom doors.

Most restaurants in my city don't even have locks on the bathroom (I actually can't think of any that does) and they are not filled to the brim with homeless people and drug addicts and we have our fair share of both.

Filled to the brim.?? Who said anything about that.? All it takes is one homeless illegal to go into the BR and spend two hours taking a bath in the sink and then washing his clothes there. That ruins things for everyone. THINK

I think Starbucks have put themselves into a tenuous situation. Now, if Starbucks tries to deny ANYONE from lounging around the store or using the bathroom, ... guess what ... "RACISM!"
I think 'anyone' could include white people as well. We could all find some reason to be 'targeted'.

Starbucks has this WASPy Toadism as their main clients. Now, that may be challenged by 'any and all' that want to claim the turf.

(might be time to dump your stock holdings in Starbucks?)

Then you ask them to leave. There is still nothing that prevents a property owner from tossing an undesirable from their property.

I don't own starbucks stock. That they recently sold a huge chunk of their merchandising to Nestle is a pretty goof indication they are burying unannounced internal troubles. Yes they misplayed this.
 
I have used McDonalds and Starbucks several times in the past when caught short in somewhere like London. Never had anyone challenge me to buy something first.

The larger size, and typically larger crowds, of burger joints, such as McDonalds, has certainly made it convenient for that purpose throughout my life. I do feel that my presence would be much more easily noticed at a Starbucks, so, I have largely avoided utilizing one except when at least purchasing a token beverage.

I think most people ‘have been caught short’ lol, and used a restroom in a McDonald’s at some point.

But we used it for its intended purpose then went about our business. But the homeless and druggies are another issue.

Businesses should be allowed to protect their business.
