I barely get Starbucks anyway, for a plethora of reasons, but I NEVER get it at airports, because the whole scene looks like a sweatshop. Long lines, way too few employees, and none of them seem to ever get breaks.

As someone who's worked behind the counter at a coffee shop, I feel for those Starbucks workers at airports and I stay away. I can hardly even watch them.

As a former partner, I avoided the joint-venture stores because my discount did not apply.

Generally speaking, if a Starbucks is inside another store or space without its own walls and door, it's not a company store. This means the workers there are not receiving the same wages and benefits.
