As reported by Grub Street, New York Magazine's food and restaurant blog, Ruby Chen went into the Elmhurst Starbucks to buy a Frappuccino with a cookie straw. Cookie straws are a big thing at Starbucks. I tried one once. It got wet. Still, the tale goes that the Starbucks manager called Chen's name and she didn't hear. Chen was having trouble with her Starbucks app and, well, the friction began to froth. It may be that the manager was already having a bad day. Which is surprising in such a genteel place as Queens. She expressed her displeasure, however, with a verve that reminded one of Mike Tyson biting Evander Holyfield's ear.

She apparently wasn't happy that Chen was allegedly holding up her line, presumably because of having not heard her name and her app fumbling, Unfortunately (for the manager) and fortunately (for lovers of drama), the scenario was captured by a bystander and placed in the window to the world known as YouTube, It was posted there by Chen herself, among others, The manager appears to be a woman of a certain level of compromise, She offered Chen the choice of either giving her the straw or leaving presidio grip + glitter case for apple iphone xs max - starlit purple with gold glitter with the straw and never being allowed into that Starbucks again..

The argument continued and the video doesn't reveal its conclusion. However, Grub Street says that the manager finally called the police. I contacted Starbucks and a spokeswoman told me: "This customer's experience is not reflective of the service our partners (employees) provide to customers every day. As soon as we learned about this, our partner was immediately suspended and now no longer works for Starbucks. Our leadership team is reaching out to the customer to apologize and make this right."Just as police officers get filmed and sometimes exposed, so do baristas. Our public behavior is now available for not merely scrutiny, but mass publication and judgment..

Firefox OS was launched in April 2013 as an alternative to Android and iOS on lower-end smartphones in emerging markets. The platform is a Linux-based operating system and Mozilla has touted its support for open Web platforms, including HTML5 applications, JavaScript, and others. The operating system is designed to entirely take advantage of Web technologies. Mozilla argues that rather than develop for closed-off systems, like iOS or Android, developers should be able to design apps with Web standards and readily port them to any other platform.
