#33Can't way for him to present the ESG section on the quarterly earnings call. It would be better than most comedy specials on Netflix.

#34Is the McDonald's of coffee. Why do people go there at all
Also, in my area, it’s better than a lot of coffee shops. Definitely not the best, but better than probably 90% of them

#39Earlier quoted context omitted.
Exactly. We're all expected to suffer the inconvenience of soggy straws to offset this guys near daily commute. And it's not just this. Near all elites have unsustainable lifestyles that we are expected to offset by changing our daily habits.
There are so few lords, it doesn't make sense for them to change their livestyles. But we peasants are numerous, so we are the ones who must suffer austerity and reduce our standard of living. That's why it's good for these rich people to fly around in private jets to attend conferences about the virtue of making common folks eat bugs and walk everywhere.

#40No remote work for thee, but remote work for me.
Niccols was in a position to make his own demands, and Starbucks had no choice but to comply.
Niccols even became chairman of the Starbucks board (it's very rare for a CEO to also be the chairman of the board at this size of a company).
Already he's paying off by jumping SBUX stock from $75 to $94 just based on the announcement alone.
If you're truly indispensable and critical to the operation of a company, they will let you work however you want.
Niccols also has to deliver, otherwise he'll be ousted like Laks was after barely a year.
