ALT Square image which uses a mostly blue background. Across the image are also large artistic representations of white snowflakes. Bold text in white and yellow reads: “show appreciation for our retail workers!” Below the text is the UFCW 3000 logo in white and yellow.
ALT Part of the letter reads at the beginning: "Howard, As Starbucks Partners, we have all developed a love for our craft and a deep respect for each other. We love making drinks, we love talking about coffee, and we love the connections we get to make in our community. We love all our store Partners who continually rise up in support of each other, in spite of frequently inadequate support from leadership. However, as Starbucks’ “Partners,” it is time that we all face the inexcusable reality that we have been given this status in title only, without also being granted the opportunity to experience true partnership... It is for this reason that the workers of Starbucks Store #11728 are launching a union campaign in pursuit of negotiating a contract that will secure appropriate wages and working conditions, as well as elevating us as Baristas, Barista Trainers, and Shift Supervisors alike, to the same level of Partnership afforded to our Partners in corporate management."
ALT Part of the letter reads towards the end: "We are prepared for tough conversations, and we expect to be put into stressful situations. This union effort is a show of the care we have for one another, and we are committed to protecting each other...We implore you to listen to us, your workers, as we are a the most foundational and crucial part of Starbucks’ success. As we begin this process, we are asking you to stand with us, hoping to emerge from this journey as an organization which truly embodies the spirit of Partnership.
