Man.. another layoff round hits Seattle. Starbucks announced today that they will layoff 350 people on February 11th. My friend called me to say he thinks he will be laid off in that group. It makes you think, why aren't there other options?
SUCH AS:
I think Starbucks should take their least productive stores and sell them off to franchise. Being that Starbucks does not franchise period, this could be a one time deal and offer to buy a Starbucks franchise. They could sell these for high amounts of money... Say they sell the bottom producing 100 stores for franchise.. even 1000 stores. They still contain the majority of Starbucks stores as corporate run stores and then can boost their instant profits for the time being.
I am just saying... People think layoffs first when they should think outside the box to try to solve some of these financial problems plaguing our country..
Thats all I have to say about that :)
