NewtoNewHampshire mod and BoSox9. Get out of the Vermont subs you Credit Card Socialist POS. Your last line is the same lame shit you always sign off with or with name checks out. French Revolution Bastille shit my ass. When? While you are up in Quebec skiing for $140 a day? You're nothing but a rich boy poser probably flush with Daddy's money playing social media guerrilla warrior. Pathetic. Go live in Cuba if you think it's such great example of socialism. See how you do there. You are so condescending to anyone but those you deem pure and worthy. You don't want what socialism is because you think you are above everyone and have all the answers. Narcissistic POS looking down on the brainwashed deplorables.

I'm pro-union (except for police unions) but understand unions won't work in industries with revolving door employment - that's what's happening here and with some supermarkets that have unionized. Unions work best in skill occupations. But everyone can try to unionize - just expect bad results if the company sees swarms of "disposable" employees lined up behind you waiting to work the job for 5 months before leaving. The company has no reason to kowtow, and that's just how it is. Sucks.

No I drink mine black. Typically equal exchange coffee or if I'm in the pits, chase and sandborn.

As a SBUX employee, I can say this whole conversation is obnoxious, and people with 0 knowledge of Starbucks as a company being self righteous is even more obnoxious. Despite what the media tells you, a large contingent of Starbucks employees do not want to unionize.

Starbucks treats their employees very well, especially compared with their competitors. People don't realize that Starbucks competition is actually fast food chains and places like Dunkin. The pay and benefits that even an entry level barista makes is far and above what any of their competitors offer. But people see "Starbucks is big, therefore they must be evil" and just get behind whatever the movement de jour is.

Feel free to downvote me to oblivion, but the social commentary from people that have no idea on what they are talking about is tiring.

8'x8'x6' with a 10'x 25' run. Have 11. Had 13. Want more

This is what happens sometimes in an economy where unions are thin. Not enough inertia. Don’t blame the people organizing, blame the shit capitalist culture that necessitates the union

Didn't it also make a list of the top most expensive places to live a few days ago?

Beats having to deal with the ridiculous inspection laws our state has

How is either city in the top 182 based on population? Also who chose 182 as a random number?

Union strong! ✊ :)

That same exact video could be made in Portland Oregon or NYC. Or Chicago. Or Los Angeles. Or anywhere with extreme income inequality. It’s about the overall average, and I’m guessing you’re not in the lower quadrant.

After seeing your post history, it all makes sense. Every. Single. Time.

And I'm retired with a pension and affordable health insurance thanks to a union!

They used equality as their measure there... So there's that.

I had 3 years as well, still had to pay. No clue how any of it works - maybe they're just out to get us flatlanders lol

Hang in there until May/June - Vermont becomes 100% worth it (minus the ticks).

>Cuba is actually a very good example of what's possible under socialism.

You are insane.

Ugh! I can’t even start to think about the inspection 😵‍💫 I’m at a breaking point between having a newborn at home and having just had a huge move. This def doesn’t make me want to live here 😂 but hopefully I’ll get through this and it’ll be it. I should have kept my old car since I had the 3 consecutive years of registration in another state 🙄.

I sincerely enjoyed your answer. Factoring in conversion loss was a nice touch! But it is not, technically, correct. I do wonder if any of the components of the ice cream were shipped from Vermont to the Netherlands first, though.

I don’t remember that part of the tour. I do remember that I was there when they were testing out the brand new equipment for the ice creams with a flavor core or whatever they call it. That was pretty cool.

If you like Starbucks just go to the one that’s convenient to you and keep anyone working employed. It’s possible not all the locations employees want to be unionized.

Apparently it pays to drive old jalopies up here. The older and rustier, the better. Kinda backwards considering how emissions crazy Vermont is. You'd figure they'd want more newer cars on the road, but nope - they tax the hell out of them and let the death traps slide.

Have you had the pleasure of an inspection yet? Apparently thats where they fuck everyone. Lol. Glad mine passed with flying colors, but it took an hour and a half of actual testing. Down in NC it's like 10 mins in the drive-thru shelter and you're good to go.

Still, this is my only big gripe with Vermont.

Such a headache!

😂

That’s what made me furious. She wasn’t willing to help at all - just kept saying she couldn’t accept it… it is literally what pops up when you google car sales tax SC IMF

Yep. I’m going to owe 1200 likely. Wtf! Honestly considering just trading in my car and getting something else?? So I don’t have to go back and don’t have to fork up 1200 bucks?!
