Starbucks (with Howard Schultz)

8349.349 - 8389.16 Howard Schultz

The manager of the Seattle Trust store on 2nd and Madison, Seattle, Tom Kerrigan, has AIDS. Now, AIDS at that time was like leprosy. Leprosy. So Tom comes in and he says, I need to resign from Starbucks. And he's crying. Do you have any health insurance? No. No. And so we covered Tom Kerrigan from that point on. But it was those kinds of imprinting moments. And there were many like that.
