Starbucks Recruiters Welcome
On the Camp Katrina blog (which I highly recommend you check out if you haven't already), Phil points out that a high school board is considering allowing Starbucks to train students and teachers in how to run a successful coffee business.
Meanwhile, Phil also points out that some high schools are doing all they can to kick military recruiters off their campuses.
Spc. Van Treuren is a coffee-loving conservative, but this is ridiculousness in its rawest and most unabashed form, Katrina Campers. While recruiters are being marched out the back doors of our nation's institutions of learning, the barristas are marching in through the front.
Someday soon, our nation may not be able to defend itself . . . but at least it will be able to make a mean cup of Joe.
Yup. Also, I wonder what would happend if McDonald's was to make the same proposal? Somehow I doubt they'd even merit any consideration, considering how some who moan and groan about the "McDonaldization" of the world don't complain about the "Starbucksization" of the world. After all, coffee from Seattle is the embodiment of everything good in America, while burgers from the Midwest are the embodiment of everything bad in America. Right?
