Pat talks to Joe Thomspon about the push to form a Union at a Santa Cruz, CA, Starbucks shop. Joe discussed how the Union-busting efforts undertaken at the direction of CEO Howard Schultz have backfired. Starbucks brought in help from high priced anti-union law firms, but it hasn\'t slowed the effort to form unions across the country. This episode focuses on the working conditions that led to a union push from Starbucks workers, the steps taken to register with the National Labor Relations Board, and the resolve of workers to stay with the fight despite countless efforts to bust the Union efforts.
