Cleaning supplies cost money, costs money to pay people to clean it, management doesn’t want to pay for that.

I worked for a multinational table service restaurant chain when I lived in Florida. I don't want to name them. One time our last broom broke and our cheap ass GM refused to buy a new one. That asshole made us use our hands to "sweep the floor". We couldn't use gloves either because those also cost money. Super glad I don't work for that company or live in that shit hole state anymore.

The distinction is that most chains are franchises whereas Starbucks is 100% corporate. Seems like a repetitional risk to the company for their flagship to be associated with black mold and bugs.

Maybe the greed got the better of them. Could also be thinking, “we’re a respected national chain, people won’t believe we’d have sanitary issues.” (Like you’re doing right now).

Wouldn’t management want to pay for it since they work there too? I think it’d be like…upper management or corporate management screwing over the retail staff, no?

That’s the thing, upper management pressures the store managers to maximize profits
