This is an unfortunately normal perk for c-level execs at major corporations. I’d be surprised if Starbucks only had one. He also most certainly has a driver (likely with military experience), and an apartment at the Ritz or similar in Seattle - all covered by the company.

Almost like it was planned!

100%. That is how public services work (for the person you replied to).

Seems like a good example of how running a company for the shareholders doesn’t produce a a better product after all.
