In Spokane Washington, Over 50 crowd has has enough with Starbucks and they are organizing to protest outisde of starbucks stores....below are some comments by those who are over 50 and had the door basically slammed in their face by starbucks

I agree..................I was completely qualified and they blew me off quickly, and have continuously run the same ad, I heard the same thing....(regarding age)....how sad. they used to be first choice for coffee, no more


I, along with several other "almost seniors" are encountering the same problem. I am personally boycotting any business transactions at several retail outlets that have engaged in age discrimination. The Employment Security Department and WorkSource are aware of the situation but have explained that we have zero recourse. We "almost seniors" should compare notes and collectively boycott all establishments that look beyond our experience for younger, less qualified applicants. Good luck with your job search. JSD

how sad..
tell yourself it's ok, and I hope you find a place that can respect YOU as a Human Being.
its ok...I believe their coffee is S**T... I would rather drink stone ground beans that have been filtered through the Olympic sprinter's team gym socks. HC

tHEY ALSO WONT SERVE YOU as fast as they should. like they are trying to get u to leave wb
