In reply to the discussion: Black men arrested at Philadelphia Starbucks agree to meet with CEO [View all]YOHABLO
(7,358 posts)6. Well Mr.Johnson, maybe you should fire that manager. There could have been other ways of handling
this incident. How about approaching these young men and asking them if you could get them a coffee or something ...maybe on the house? Let's be honest, Starbucks is the place where a lot of people go to meet up or hang out. I see people come into Starbucks and not buy anything and stay all day. So this is all about the management of that particular Starbucks. How about training your managers on how to handle these situations. (the officers also should be held accountable for this as well)

No it's like everything else in this country ... BAD or NO training. It's called management skills.

Good question. Remove ignorance. Open people's eyes to the truth that no human being is better
