Starbucks also recently announced its intention to join the NFT. Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz said at the Partner Open Forum on Monday: “Before the year is over, we will get into the NFT business.”
However, unions have also taken a negative stance, saying that companies will be able to raise their employees' wages instead of burning profits on illusions.
While the NFT may seem like a progressive move, it could be a way to distract people from the company's anti-union action.
Because, in fact, an hour after this NFT announcement, Starbucks fired union executive Lila Dalton.
Starbucks reported record sales in the fourth quarter of 2021, but union demands over employee benefits and lower salaries, he said.
Is it really true to cover the issue with the union as an NFT issue?
