Why does someone become a barista?
Maybe they love coffee and the atmosphere of the cafe.
Maybe they love people, especially coffee people.
Maybe they’re an artist.
Maybe it’s simply a job that they could get.
A good barista makes all the difference. Not just in the coffee itself but the whole experience.
We’re fortunate to live in a world that allows most to choose a path. This variety (dare I say diversity?) brings a richness to our lives that we can easily take for granted. We often assume that everyone should be like us, want the same things as us, or see the world the same as us.
Besides coffee, what other services and experiences in your life are enhanced by the physical proximity and personal touch of another human?
The barista has chosen this path. Let’s remember that it’s hard to do that work remotely.
