While I do agree that there should be more of a fine, the judge has torn Starbucks' anti trust efforts wide open by having them admit to their lies in writing to their employees. The implications for Starbucks can easily be severe here as employees start to doubt the bullshit they got indoctrinated with by anti trust wankers.
My old job had quite a few of these legally mandated “whoopsie we crossed the line a bit and got our hands slapped by the NLRB” posters around. The print was tiny and it covered the whole corkboard, basically just quoting the exact text of labor laws all written in impenetrable legalize. They weren’t exactly causing a wave of class consciousness among the workers.
Oh also there were cameras watching the posters.
Tbh, I'm betting more on the news than on the posters. Starbucks workers will see this shared via social media and such. Or so I hope. This is not at all certain, yet I think it might damage Starbucks more than some fine that will not change anything for the workers either.
Surely concrete, actual monetary damage is more discouraging than some kind of class solidarity revelation that has yet to spark from a news article being shared. It’s not like doing this precludes them also getting a fine. Being unable to do this without serious repercussions would harm them a great deal more, in my opinion.
Oh no, severe implications! That will teach them a lesson for sure 🙄
