poo poo coffee poo poo CEO poo poo company to work for despite their public persona playing up all the supposed bennys you get from working there. Its a fast food job for people with liberal arts degrees - nothing more, nothing less.

They are doing massive illegal union busting all over the US right now and putting people in actual physical danger with their tactics.

Just drink cheap diner coffee if you're in the US or coffee from literally any other establishment if you live in a different country. gently caress(s) the BUCK(s).

I defended them for a long time cause like 15 years ago a girlfriend worked there and they seemed pretty decent to their workers. Their insurance plan allowed you to add someone to it if you felt they were "a significant part of your life" or something along those lines, no marriage needed.

I guess I should've figured they actually sucked.

The profit from your sandwich was used to pay for a minuscule portion of fuel inside a private jet that flies a millionaire consultant from city to city to "educate" hourly employees on the dangers of organising.

You can buy coffee with DMAA in it, which is an amphetamine derivative, but I have to assume it's less safe and/or effective than actual adderall because if it weren't it would be put in capsules and given to college kids.

Caffeine addiction decreases your likelihood of getting Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. I’ve been trying and failing to cultivate an addiction for years for that reason. It just makes me jittery, hot, and diarrheaful.

"Ever since Starbucks faced the initial unionization efforts in Buffalo, it has gone far to abandon truth and fair play. Last Friday, the National Labor Relations Board issued an unusually wide-ranging complaint against Starbucks, accusing it of more than 20 violations of the nation’s labor laws as part of its anti-union efforts in Buffalo, including firing six pro-union workers, disciplining and surveilling others, and closing stores.

Coffee is good, it calms me down and relaxes me. I have one as the first part of my sleep routine. I noticeably have better sleep that way.

I've only had the Starbucks here in Australia which is apparently different and tastes like generic and eh okay coffee. I usually just go to the coffee place next door. Same price, same size, way better.

Personally i like to start off the day with a nice cup of hot, freshly squeezed jizz. It has all the micronutrients you need to get energized for work and contains 90% protein and 10% cocaine.

Single origin jizz or have you opted for a mass produced, blended product using jizz from several different producers?

American coffee consumers equate dark with more and therefore dark = more = better. Coffee advertisement is all about BOLD ROBUST flavor etc.

Light is associated with diet foods. Very hard to find a good light roast outside of major coastal cities in the US.

Its getting better but still relegated to small hippie towns like Ann Arbor or Madison and the like where you've got smaller batch roasters but on the whole US coffee sux, inclusive of, and possibly even because of Starbucks and their passing off milkshakes as coffee.

Coffee Makers are trash , use a loving pour over or a French Press.

My go to coffee is Lavazza. Little pricey but really good coffee.

Seriously can't live with out a big cup of coffee in the morning

Coffee makers are p good if you have one of those industrial strength restaurant ones, but there is literally no home model that makes coffee worth a poo poo, might as well put a sock or some dirty panties full of crushed beans in a pot of boiling water. :shrug:

This coffee maker is actually really good. It even does a bloom at the start of brewing and the carafe is insulated with no bottom burner so it doesn't burn your coffee.
