I think businesses are stupid for making you buy something just to pee in their bathrooms. Geez, if you gotta pee, you gotta pee. With all that backlash, I figure, unless they're stupid, I'd hope most of their employees would know not to pull that again.

Valuable. They can now cover their liability better.

I disagree with why they are doing it but hey, it’s their business, they can do whatever they want with their employees, as long as it’s legal.

Most corporations have this kind of training annually.

It’s main value is as a PR move.

Not sure why as the Starbucks employees did exactly what Starbucks policy required.

Overreaction but will probably score some points with their small minded ignorant base.

Does anyone know if hanging out there without buying anything is policy now? I imagine the homeless people would take it over, especially in extremes of weather and begging will ensue.

They should have done this instead of announcing their bathrooms are open to everyone.

I said valuable but only from a liability standpoint. Now they have a leg to stand on showing they took the incident seriously if it is necessary to show that in court.

They should stay closed.

I’m so happy now that I don’t work at Starbucks

I think it's a gross overreaction to an isolated incident that doesn't actually appear to carry implicit bias with it. Waste of time

Lesson 1: How to not think what you do

Lesson 2: Ignoring instincts

Lesson 3: Internalizing deep, deep shame

They think their employees need a correction so be it. They’ll teach them to treat white people the same as people of color.
