Hope you asked Santa for some caffeine for Christmas. Starbucks stores across the country shut down Christmas Eve in what is expected to be the largest strike in the company’s history. More than 5,000 workers are expected to walk off the job before eight reindeer start their journey later this evening,

Starbucks' union says workers are walking off the job at some 300 — out of over 10,000 — stores across the U.S. as contract negotiations falter. The company urges it to return to the bargaining table.
