Starbucks Babies

Starbucks, maybe you’ve heard of it, a popular little coffee shop that has stained a permanent ring into the veneer of our society. It’s almost become more iconic than McDonalds as a representation of the American lifestyle.

However Starbucks has provided more than just a place for casual business meetings over a blended coffee drink. Around 3PM on any given weekday Starbucks plays a vital role in the future productivity of this Country.

Breaking the ridiculous tradition of not serving coffee to minors Starbucks provides caffeinated beverages to throngs of Middle School and Jr. High students. Children between the ages of 10-16 can be seen sitting around sipping iced coffee’s and Frappuchinos so big they must use two jittering hands to hold the cup to their lips. These kids are the future and thanks to Starbucks they are primed for maximum efficiency.

Coffee has played a vital role in the productivity of the work place for decades. You’d be hard pressed to find an office without a pot brewing throughout the day. However in the past, coffee was bitter and unappealing to children, now through the creativity and marketing of Starbucks this nectar of efficiency is available to tomorrows fast thinkers. Indeed I would say the green aproned baristas that methodically press out latte after latte are as important as Americas educators in shaping the world of tomorrow.

Hyperactivity and Attention Deficit Disorder be damned, these are not problems they’re evolution. The world today moves fast and our youth need to think faster. By the time they’re ready for their very own cubicles industry and information will move so quickly that the rest of the Starbucksless world will appear to be standing still. So give little Tommy another Double Shot, hand Cindy a frap and stand back slow poke!
