They don't take a lot of pride in what they do, cause they don't take pride in doing anything real special, and that's a shame. I think if they could see what else it out there, it would open up a world of possibilities that would lead to better baristas. Iron sharpening iron. You guys out in WA, MO, or even IL really take alot of things for granted when it comes to the barista scene you're in, and how it pushes you to raise your game and skills.
And that's why I want to really work on this element this year. Will, a former barista that works in the back of the Roastery here in production made a challenge to me today. Said he wanted to have a company barista jam/competition. I took his challenge, cause I know I will spank him, then he shared it with the president, who not only supported it, but wants to participate, and vows to win. He wants everyone involved. And this will not be just a relaxed thing, but the real competition format, with real judges. And this gets all of us excited about coffee again. Like it should be. So, if we host a barista jam in Charlotte, any of you interested in participating?
