Coffee By Design is 100x better than Starbucks and much more deserving of your patronage.

From what I've heard CBD isn't exactly the most labour friendly business at the moment either.

Yeah, she was in hot water lately for saying some pretty wild stuff regarding wage hikes. https://mobile.twitter.com/DSA_Maine/status/1573290717329477632

Much better, hit up speckled axe, bard or any of the other numerous, amazing coffee shops around Portland. And if you hit speckled axe and get a handsome mustachioed barista tip him well, he’s my brother haha

How do you know that a given coffee shop is labor positive though? I've enjoyed CBD coffee for years while know knowing anything about their politics or labor relations.
In the end if everybody decided to boycott all Starbucks the employees at the individual stores end up getting hurt the worst because they'll all lose their jobs. The people at the top making the decisions are rarely in any serious trouble if a company closes down.
It's a thorny issue...
