I'm not a fan of Starbucks, but they are closing the unionized store I support
The location is miles away from me. I only go there when I'm in the neighborhood, like today when I went to Best Buy. When I ordered, I asked that a union member make my coffee. The response was thank you, no problem. After I tipped the young lady at the window, she told me tomorrow is their last day. There will still be one unionized location in Omaha. But I'm almost never near it.
OS
Starbucks will close at least four Omaha locations by Saturday as the Seattle coffee giant shutters hundreds of stores nationwide.
While Starbucks has not publicly released a list of stores slated for closure, an unofficial list from the r/starbucks subreddit compiled by employees identifies five locations in Nebraska set to close: 90th and Fort Streets, 90th and Maple Streets, 72nd and Dodge Streets, and 72nd and L Streets in Omaha, and 12th and P Streets in Lincoln.
