Starbucks
may have coffee that many believe is worthy to drink
But when it
comes to PR and image one wonders how and do they think
The news
that a barista of five years is going to be axed
For theft,
for absenteeism or being late or for service not to the max?
None of
these only a thumb sized tattoo of a heart
From
Starbucks’ no visible tattoo policy she did depart
Not gang
colors or images racial or obscene
Only a sign
of love for which we all dream
She had it
when she was hired and not one customer has complained
One would
hope that from this act Starbucks would refrain
They of course
have the right
To be
heartless and not bright
So here is a
suggestion that Starbucks might heed
40 million
Americans have tattoos and you may have planted the boycott seed
Insulting part
of your customer base is never a right move
So axe
instead the demand that a heart tattoo be removed
