Starbucks calls their employees partners because each employee is awarded stock in the company, depending upon how long they have been with the company and how many hours they have worked, therefore since they also own a bit of the company, they are called partners.

Yes, but only some employees are required to attend.
There are 2 ways Starbucks can be owned. Either corporate or private. Corporate refers to all the lone standing Starbucks' you see. Corporate Starbucks' are owned all by the same people and offer employees discounts and free weekly coffee/tea. Private Starbucks' are the ones you see INSIDE stores aka longos, the airport, etc. These Starbucks' are owned by individual companies and do not report to the "Starbucks head office". They don't offer their employees discounts and free merchandise however, they pay more. Both Starbucks offer the same drinks and food though.
I submitted an application but the problem is I would only be working in my hometown for a month and a half before leaving to school. How long does a partner have to be working in order to get a transfer?
