I have never, not once, been held up by a side-show in San Francisco. I did have to wait 5 minutes to cross the street to get to the farmer's market at the Embarcadero while a motorcycle brigade zoomed up the street. The only side-show

This isn't necessarily true although it is parroted quite a bit due to SBs excellent PR and marketing. One of the complains perusing the SB subreddits discuss how pay doesn't keep up with cost of living and that the benefits are d

This isn't necessarily true. I have also asked a couple of baristas what their pay was like, and it seems like they do not give raises as frequently or pegged to CoL. Over COVID, I chatted with a barista that had been with Starbucks fo

I return half of my purchases now because the quality of the service as well the selection of products has deteriorated. If you bought eggs from a vendor for 10 years and in the past 3, they provided half of the viable eggs per carton, you

I typically find the same items on Taobao and Alibaba for a fraction of the price. I've been returning some items as they accept returns if you "find a better price elsewhere." There were some weenies who said this was abuse
