Did it hurt the officers "feelings"?

The barista should be fired (I think she/he was?). But the twitter discussion between O'mara's daughter and O'mara is really difficult to read. Definitely not saying that the "PIG" was deserved but there is a lot of baggage in this town.

perhaps starbucks should close all of their stores for "sensitivity training" and make a public proclamation that all police are welcome.

How many of these "sensitivity training" classes has a Starbucks had?

But I agree about the public proclamation.

Obviously yes. Because they felt the need to run to the internet to tell everyone.

I was kind of being sarcastic. It seems unlikely they would treat this with the same equal concern as the previous incidents.

I'm trying to remember the previous incidents.

Honestly, I don't feel this is about "sensitivity" and instead, it's about a lack of professionalism and customer service skills on the part of the employee who wrote that on the PO's cup.

And right THERE and especially given the circumstances, I strongly feel that this employee needs to be terminated.

Those Twit comments are interesting. What a charming world we live in. All I ever think when I see comments like that is that they'd be really happy to see that "pig" if some asswipe with a gun is breaking into the store.
