“Starbucks said the new rules would make its green aprons stand out and create a sense of familiarity for customers as it tries to establish a warmer, more welcoming feeling in its stores.”

Make the green apron stand out? ✅

“Establish a warmer, more welcoming feeling” 🤔

Looks like corpo-bullshit coffee to me… not that I’d know since I don’t drink coffee. It looks more like they want a cold Apple store vibe than corner coffee shop vibe.

If you want a warm feeling, hit up a non-chain coffee shop and do what they do. Pro-tip - it’s not making everyone look like the same drone.
