I quit my job at Bambino about a year too late. Don't get me wrong, it was a great job, awesome customers, amazing co-workers, but having mean and unappreciative management can be a deal breaker. My last day was on Thanksgiving!
When I quit I decided to take a few months off to clear my head and re-evaluate my position in the service industry, see if I really wanted to continue with it.
Then...my barista who works at the coffee shop down the street from my house got into a nasty cycling accident and broke her elbow and is out of a job. So having extra time on my hands I stepped in and am now working 4 days a week at Aster Coffee Lounge. It's an awesome place, amazing coffee, the worlds best cinnamon rolls (rivals the Stehekin Bakery), good beer and wine and will soon be featuring some of my famous soups. I don't know for sure how long I'll be there, who knows it could end up being a full time thing, but I am enjoying helping out and getting to learn a lot more about coffee. Oh yeah, we are the only ones in Ballard that has a Clover machine too, and the hype is all correct, it's the most awesome drip coffee maker ever!
