The strike will be the longest in the year-old unionization campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The union says it expects the strike will shutter some stores entirely; at others, managers or other workers may keep the stores open.<\/p>\n<p>A message seeking comment was left with Starbucks Friday morning.<\/p>\n<p>This is the second major strike in a month by Starbucks\u2019 U.S. workers. On Nov. 17, workers at 110 Starbucks stores held a one-day walkout. That effort coincided with Starbucks\u2019 annual Red Cup Day, when the company gives reusable cups to customers who order a holiday drink.<\/p>\n<p>More than 264 of Starbucks\u2019 9,000 company-run U.S. stores have voted to unionize since late last year.<\/p>\n<p>Starbucks opposes the unionization effort, saying the company functions better when it works directly with employees. But the company said last month that it respects employees\u2019 lawful right to protest.<\/p>\n<p>Tori Tambellini, a former Starbucks shift supervisor and union organizer who was fired in July, said she will be picketing in Pittsburgh this weekend. Tambellini said workers are protesting understaffed stores, poor management and what she calls Starbucks\u2019 \u201cscorched earth method of union busting,\u201d including closing stores that have unionized.<\/p>\n<p>Workers United noted that Starbucks recently closed the first store to unionize in Seattle, the company\u2019s hometown. Starbucks has said the store was closed for safety reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Starbucks and the union have begun contract talks in about 50 stores but no agreements have been reached.<\/p>\n<p>The process has been contentious. According to the National Labor Relations Board, Workers United has filed at least 446 unfair labor practice charges against Starbucks since late last year, including that the company fired labor organizers and refused to bargain. The company, meanwhile, has filed 47 charges against the union, among them allegations that it defied bargaining rules when it recorded sessions and posted the recordings online.<\/p>\n<p>So far, the labor disputes haven\u2019t appeared to dent Starbucks\u2019 sales. Starbucks said in November that its revenue rose 3 percent to a record $8.41 billion in the July\u2013September period.<\/p>\n<p><em>By Dee-Ann Durbin<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"author_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"one_author_block round\">\n<div class=\"top_row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/author-associated-press\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/AP-logo-square-1080.jpg\" alt=\"The Associated Press\"   style=\"display:none\"><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starbucks workers around the United States are planning a three-day strike starting Friday as part of their effort to unionize the coffee chain\u2019s stores.More than 1,000 baristas at 100 stores<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1703841,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[547],"tags":[5696,9842,5458,4025,3819,9843,9845,7238,9844,5015],"class_list":["post-1778365","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-bongino-report","tag-5696","tag-3-day","tag-bongino","tag-plan","tag-report","tag-starbucks","tag-stores","tag-u-s","tag-walkout","tag-workers"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1778365","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1778365"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1778365\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1703841"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1778365"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1778365"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1778365"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
