£2.35 for a pot of cold congealed tramps vomit seems a bit steep for me. There are plenty of tramps around in London, I could surely have found one and agreed a much lower price and got it straight from source. I’m sure that despite Starbucks best efforts at Fair Trade dealing I would have given the poor sod a better deal too.
Ok. So perhaps I would have had the additional problem of having to source my own packaging. I don’t routinely carry spare Tupperware with me on my travels, and I would have missed the frankly too warm refuge provided by this particular branch of Starbucks. But then I could have heard the latest news on the best places to procure Special Brew at discounted rates. At the very least I could have listened to my own choice of music.
Anyway, it’s 08:46 and it’s a five minute walk to the office. Time to leave out the grumping and get on to something guaranteed to make me pissed off…
