00:00Starbucks' CEO has a 1,000-mile commute to the office.
00:04On a private jet, of course.
00:06Brian Nickell is due to start at the Coffee Empire on September 9th.
00:09And his contract includes commuting from his home in California
00:12to Starbucks' headquarters in Seattle via private jet.
00:16Nickell is expected to work from Starbucks' Seattle office
00:19at least three days a week,
00:21in line with the company's hybrid work policies.
00:23But Starbucks has denied to the BBC
00:25that Nickell will be expected to fly back and forth 1,000 miles each day.
00:29However, some customers are furious about the new CEO's commute,
00:34saying it doesn't align with Starbucks' commitment
00:36to have less of an environmental impact.
