Are you a dedicated coffee professional or at least dreaming of becoming one? When a shop rush hits does the average human eye perceive you to be in three places all at the same time? How about the thought of tasting all the separate elements of one of the nations leading espresso blends in an attempt to really understand it… does that make you drool? If you can answer yes to all of these questions then please send me a slightly overly verbose email about you and why you would be amazing in my shop. Fair warning though, everyone starts at the bottom and folks that don’t hustle need not apply.

Oh and I forgot to mention... folks that are persuaded by things like competitive pay, 401 K, Health insurance, dental, paid vacation and free (albeit only occasional) hugs from Geoff Watts can consider that all part of the deal as well.
