That’s because 99% of the time the kebab guy is working for himself/family/hired by community. Whereas miserable Starbucks student-employee hates to be there, the company treats their employees as “Human Resources” and all this corporate shit

People should really stop supporting Starbucks… kind of insane how many people throw money at a corporation that works as hard as Starbucks does to dehumanize its employees.

but I guess that’s a small price to pay for 8oz of sugar with a splash of coffee

But it's not even a small price to pay. That 8 oz "tall" cup of sugar liquid is getting quite expensive.

The human cost of supporting Starbucks is immense. Folks may want to look into the Starbucks employee fight to unionize & the illegal union busting that the Starbucks company continues to get away with. I don't buy Starbucks anymore for that reason alone.

Sadly we’ve been conditioned to consume.

It kind of reminds me of twitter. Virtually everyone in my day to day life agrees that musk is a technofascist and most would say supporting him or his products is outright immoral. Meanwhile they all still use twitter rofl
