Starbucks closes for three hours!!!

All right, no one freak out. Just breathe in and out through your nose because I’m about to lay some FRIGHTENING sstuff on you. USA Today
Coffee giant Starbucks announced this month that it would close most of its 7,000 U.S. stores for three hours on the evening of Feb. 26. The decision to close the stores was made so that the 135,000 managers and other employees can be re-trained.
Three hours?! Are they insane? I saw a woman in line at a Starbucks once scream at a man and call him a “fricken imbecile” because he took about one minute too long to decide what he wanted. Also, why the hell do they need to retrain the employees? What was going on before this? Were the employees just dumping water and coffee beans in to a cup and then handing it out? It’s fricken coffee, not brain surgery.
As soon as word got out about this story, pretty much all of Los Angeles went crazy. Women and men were getting into their BMWs and driving straight into oncoming traffic. Gun fire was heard everywhere, babies screaming. And still, the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf was empty. I got an aerial picture of Malibu, it’s not going well over there......
