Comments on: Why I Can’t Work in Retail http://bloggochicago.com/2005/06/28/why-i-cant-work-in-retail/ blah blah blah from the northwest side Sat, 22 Nov 2008 04:05:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: D.A. http://bloggochicago.com/2005/06/28/why-i-cant-work-in-retail/#comment-698 D.A.

I never take the time to stop at one coz ordin' coffee off a menu is gay (not that there is anything wrong with that, of course). ;-) And, Starsucks STILL manages to slow the commute for even those of us who don't bother to "shop" there. Starsucks buys up old business locations, where the previous business didn't necessarily attract a commuter-specific crowd. Now, all the "sheepeople" on their cellphones, and applying their Clinique/MAC make-up, in the rear-view mirror, hold the rest of us up while they wait, cars still hanging half in the traffic flow, to snare one of the 4 parking spaces surrounding the Starsucks, located at every busy intersection in town. Sheez. Ain't nuttin' but another golden arches. Starsucks is a freakin’ plague.
