Thanks for the advice, I'll look into it. I glanced your profile and thought you worked at BS, but I guess not anymore? So where do you call home?

Yeah. I work for the Purple Onion's sister store Espresso Expose as a barista and trainer. Awesome place to work, and great people, but I really feel like I've hit a ceiling there and it's kind of been getting me down lately. I basically taught myself everything that I know about coffee It just seems like no one really has the passion for making quality espresso on a consistent basis there.
Do you know of anywhere around here that does advanced training of any sort?

Thanks for being a friend.
I've heard some amazing things about your shop, so I suppose I'll have to stop in sometime.

Yep, I worked Wednesday, and stuck around a little after. You probably saw me. I was in Black Sheep today for the first time. I had a good time there. I met Pete, and he poured us (me, and a few of my coworkers from CR) some great coffee. I moved to the Cities a few months back, and am now finally making it around to the shops I've wanted to check out. Next time your in Common Roots, say hello.
