All Work And No Frapps Makes Spears A Dull Girl

In a move that makes no sense to us, Starbucks has decided to close all 7,100 stores nationwide this afternoon for employee training.

Starting at 5:30 p.m., the stores will host a three-hour in-store training program that is supposed to “foster enthusiasm” in the employees. Or just drum up publicity.

I bet all the Starbucks employees are just. so. excited.

Especially those that have to come in on their day off so that they can do a team cheer and group hug. Good thinking, Starbucks.

I’m not sure if this is nationwide- but the Dunkin Donuts in the DC/VA/MD area are all offering coffees and lattes for 99 cents this afternoon while Starbucks in closed.

Shit. I’m so glad I got my, venti skinny hazelnut mocha latte, before that happened. There would have been some godzilla like rage had I been locked out.

Dear god… someone at my office just sent out an e-mail to everyone in our office letting us know that we have about 45 minutes to run over to Starbucks before they close.

And this bitch gets to keep HER job.

Life. Is. Not. Fair.
