Starbucks Dragon

Instead of cash bonuses, I get Starbucks cards.
I don’t go to Starbucks, so I give the cards away.
They thank me, but don’t tell me that they don’t go to Starbucks either.
In fact, nobody does. Nobody goes to Starbucks anymore.
They go to the website, and load up their cards, and then give them away as gifts.
Pretty soon, all of the world’s wealth will be tied up in Starbucks cards.
And somewhere, sitting on top of a pile of cards, is Starbucks the Dragon.
Guarding its precious hoard, sleeping with one eye open.
Because of the caffeine.
