The union represents more than 9,000 Starbucks workers at more than 300 stores across the country. Employees at some unionized stores started the walkout on Wednesday with the aim of surprising the company, which was aware of Thursday’s planned walkout. Starbucks says the union is the side that has prevented bargaining sessions by insisting on conducting the meetings online, with rank-and-file members observing, rather than having negotiating teams sit down in person. The union is calling on the company to shut down mobile orders on promotional days, which it says have gotten more frequent. The store was so overwhelmed that some drinks and food went to waste and orders were halted, Ms. Federspiel-Baier said.
