Professor Mark J. Perry's Blog for Economics and Finance
SEATTLE --As many as 12,000 Starbucks workers will lose their jobs when the company begins closing 600 U.S. stores this summer. Starbucks has not identified which 600 stores it plans to close between now and March, but the news is trickling out through baristas, the media and others. The map marks the locations of where they say the closings will happen (the website map is interactive, you can click on a location to find details).

Wow! 8 Starbucks in the St. Louis, Mo area are going to close...
I can see where there could be either a shift to QT (local quick shop chain) coffee or there will be a lot of crabby people in the morning...
So, are they planning to close the ones on The Moon and Mars, too?
:oP
