Starbucks

Despicable treatment of minorities… coffee cold 99% of time. And when I asked for “hot” fresh coffee, I get smirked at by the same woman, who looks at me like I am asking for something that black people don’t have a right to expect. I pay $3.50 for a cup of coffee that I must go home and reheat in the microwave, daily. Today was the final straw. Sad. I spoke with the manager, Colleen, who whined, “oh I am so sorry. Oh oh.” However, it wasn’t until I said I was going to social media to complain that their (specific this one woman) treatment of blacks was unacceptable. This woman lied to my face. All I want is hot, fresh coffee. At least that’s what I thought I was paying for…. I saw this particular woman emptying the pot into my cup when I walked into the store; I order from the app. The guy says what do you want. I gave him my name and said I ordered a venti pike. He says we’re just waiting for a fresh pot to brew. I looked at the woman who was emptying out the old pot into my cup and asked, “I will get a fresh cup,?” To which she replied, “yes!” And she gives me that same smirk ish look. So I wait… When she puts the cup up, I take it and travel the 3 minutes to my home. When I take the lid off, there is no steam, and the coffee is almost room temp. So, like most days, I pour the $3.50 coffee into my mug and put it in the microwave. This is what prompted me to call. If you don’t want to serve black folks then say so. Put a sign on the door and I’ll take my green money elsewhere. But please stop treating black folks like slaves… it is very sad. I really tried to patronize this location, but I will never go in there again. If it weren’t for the great service I get around the corner on Haddonfield Road, I would totally never go into another Starbucks. Get with the program, discrimination ain’t cute. If you don’t want to serve everyone then choose a career where you only come in contact with your own. God bless you.
