12 CommentsThis is not the day to boycott corporate coffee. Our green apron-clad friends over at Starbucks are giving out free iced coffee and cafe con leche until 3 pm today— presumably at all NYC locations.
With a feels-like temperature of 103, this is quite a public service. Enjoy it while you can.

@melisa speaking from experience, it’s definitely a decent place to work. depends a lot on the location, though.
@Shira yeah, I’m thinking most days at Starbucks are better than most days at Wal Mart.
@really now Is there ever a good day to be a Starbucks employee?
@At least you get health insurance. They were on Fortune’s “Top 100 companies to work for” — as wage slaving go, it’s pretty OK.
@yeah.. actually it’s a pretty good place to work..some of the lower level jobs even get stock options
@Shira Gawker has video from one of the stores… looks like mayhem. Today would have been a really bad day to be a Starbucks employee in NYC.
@also why is everything on here anyonomous. it seems that the idea is that the comments wouldn’t be anyonomous, much like the now deceased cucommunity.
@i got all excited until i remembered it’s fucking hot out. i’m not walking anywhere to get a free anything. i”ll just crank up the ac.
@Excaberator I got all excited about this until I remembered I’m not in New York.
@Gothamist Love the Gothamist copy-edit. Just love it!
@uh you realize that caffeine excaberates dehydration, and doesn’t alleviate it?
get a decaf. and enjoy the 45 minute long line.
@Hey who says all New Yorkers are cynical?
