Yeah, more like 20 (19 CHF/h). Switzerland is expensive, and Starbucks ensures that their prices reflect that -- "caramel frappuccino" is 8.90 CHF for the big bucket of a cup they have, while the same thing in the US is what, 5? They could easily pay their employees more if they wanted, but they don't and then talk about this "partner fair ethical something something" bullshit. Like I said, there are plenty of fast food/coffee joints here that do pay their employees well.

Re. the pregnant part, I confirmed and it was not technically firing, just not renewing the contract upon learning.
