Don't worry, he probably has some arrangement to only go like once. A month.

Try once a week! He will have to be in Seattle three days a week to conform to Starbucks’ remote/hybrid work policy.

This is it, y'all! This is the one.

No political messaging, no debatable tech contribution, no societal contribution, the company will be fine because they change CEOs like I change my underwear.

I think everyone can agree, this is the one we eat. It's time to send a message and enjoy a damn fine meal.

The article says when he started at Chipotle they were headquartered in Denver but dickbag moved it to Newport Beach so it was closer. Guessing the same thing will happen to Starbucks. He will (randomly) decide that Newport Beach is a better location for a global coffee chain than Seattle.

And here I was thinking naively that this was an opportunity for change.
