Unionized Starbucks workers at 6350 N. Broadway participated in a one-day strike after they said Starbucks cut their hours and changed policy without the input of the union. The location was closed as workers and supporters stood at the corner of West Devon Avenue and North Broadway early March 22, holding signs to protest the recent schedule changes. The strike was one of many coordinated by Starbucks Workers United, a union representing Starbucks workers. Workers began the process of unionizing the location at West Devon Avenue and North Broadway in August, The Phoenix previously reported Ashlyn Parsons, a barista who’s worked at the location for six months, said her hours have been cut in half from when she began working. She said even though business may be down, they still deserve a living wage. “Some of us can't pay our rent, and it's really hard,” Parsons said. “Even though there's less business, we deserve to work and have a living wage.” Story link in bio. #LoyolaPhoe...
