Description

And we are back with the second part of our exploration of common barista myths! I have to say, the main point for both the owner and barista episodes is to encourage everyone to exercise a patience, humility, curiosity, and a sense that there may be more to a story that what we initially see. The culture of coffee shops is shaped on aspirations and passion, but also on assumptions that can damage, hold back, and make toxic an otherwise promising career or cafe.

So with all that said I want to cover another set of myths that baristas (ie: future managers, owners, trainers etc) believe and what might be a better way to address what the myth is based on. We cover: Don't expect much from your boss

We will cover:

• Don't expect much from your boss
• Gatekeeping is always negative
• Being a barista is my only option to work in coffee
• My standing in the community is my significance as a professional
• If I am not happy it is the business fault
• My work as a barista doe not make a difference
