11,000 Starbucks baristas are represented by their union, and it says a five-day strike begins today in three U.S. cities: Los Angeles, Chicago and Seattle. Low pay and inadequate staffing are the causes, reports the BBC.
Workers United says the walkouts will start in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Seattle, with strike action set to spread each day and reach hundreds of stores by Christmas Eve unless a deal is reached.
