The main reason I avoid Starbucks is that they put the mom and pop joint that I used to go to out of business. I am not on a crusade to annihilate Starbucks, I just try to go elsewhere. I just like plain coffee so the appeal of Starbucks is not there for me. Report as inappropriate

With regards to 9/11 water issue, it appears that the stupid action of the employee and severely screwed up handling of the issue were all resolved in Sept 2001. In any case, it was a fucked up thing, but they did donate a million, etc etc based on that article, so I don't think they are the worst of the worst for that issue alone. Plenty of businesses, large and small, handled things poorly around those events in NYC, public gestures notwithstanding. Report as inappropriate
