    Nothing like the combination of legally mandated childhood trauma and the phrase "five business days".

      This is where you organize an entire classroom. Make these written notifications daily. If you're in high school, organize as many as you can. 30 students per class, eight periods per day, that's 240 notes daily. Protest through ridiculous amount of paperwork.

            The average of a Starbucks barista is 24. Most union workers at Starbucks locations are Gen Z. We're plenty good at organizing.
