The big bad Starbucks doesn't owe you a thing. You were too cheap to rent a meeting room so you went to a public place and took up space meant for real customers so you could have a free meeting room. Then you complain because someone had the absolute audacity to be ill where you'd have to smell it. What a horrible experience for you! How do you deal with such injustice? Wait...I know--beg for gift cards! Yeah, that'll do it! Seriously, get a grip and realize real life includes unpleasantness, stop harassing Starbucks for gift cards you have no right to and realize some people have real problems. Donate some money to St. Jude's-- those kids have real problems. And next time, cough up the money for a private meeting room. You owe Starbucks an apology for attempting to steal from them.
