"Starbucks workers in New York have accused the company of "defrauding" customers to turn them against striking employees.

The Starbucks coffeehouse on Elmwood Avenue in Buffalo, New York, has been on strike since Thursday, barista and union organizer Michelle Eisen told Newsweek. But on Sunday and Monday, despite the store's publicly posted picket times, Starbucks turned its mobile order system on—forcing the workers to face angry customers who paid for their orders online and arrived to find nothing prepared, Eisen said.

Eisen has worked at the coffee chain for 12 years. In December 2021, her Buffalo store became the first Starbucks location to unionize in the United States. Less than a year later, over 200 stores across the country have voted to unionize, according to Union Election Data."
