Starbucks lifts tattoo ban for workers, gives pay increase and a snack

Over the past months the employees of Starbucks drawn attention to themselves. The reason for this is the dissatisfaction with their working contitions, and that's why they are currently fighting for an improvement.
It all began in June with the employee Kristie Williams, who started a petition to change the tattoo policy, wich garnered 25,000 signatures. The company did not mind and in July, they threatened a young girl working in their shop in Michigan to fire her if she doesn't remove the heart tattooo on her hand.
The case of the employee in Michigan was just one of the few who has found his way into the media, so the coffeechain was forced to change their working conditions to avoid a bad image. Starbucks announced Thursday that they would change their dress policy and that they also would allow to show of the "tasteful" tattoos of the employees, as long as they don't are on the employee's neck or face. But they didn't announce only good news, they also added other dress code restrictions. These restrictions forbade to wear watches, bracelets or rings with stones, but they can at least wear their wedding rings.
In addition, they pay increases to baristas and supervisors, annual salary reviews for all employees, and the workers also get one free pastry per shift.
In my opinion, Starbucks is one of the most unjust companies that exist, and I would never work voluntarily for them, even if they change a few work conditions or not. All employees should be free to wear what they want and they should not be a disadvantage to find a job.
