Fast Food Managers Abuse Power, Force Teenage Workers Into Sex
(Photo: missyosgirl)
Supervising nubile teenagers in a fast-food establishment does not mean that you have an open invitation to abuse your authority and demand sex from them. This seems that it would be a self-evident rule of management. It is not.
"I felt like I didn't have a choice," [a former Starbucks barista] told ABC News."I was ashamed and embarrassed. And I felt like he had complete control over my job... he knew all this stuff about my family and my friends and my school."The Starbucks supervisor (who, in a weird coincidence, has the same name as a rival coffee chain) served four months in prison for sex with a minor—at the time, he was 24 and the barista 16.She says the supervisor would summon her for sex in hundreds of text messages, including one that said, "I'd liked to f—- tomorrow."
"It was an everyday, numerous times a day occurrence," [she] said. "And I just saw it and did what I had to do."
