Hi there! I'll be your barista this morning. What would I recommend? Um, I do like enjoy chugging back a tall drip with plentiful whipped cream, but maybe you'd like something from our lesser-known seasonal menu...
Simple premise: a coffee shop, I'm a
barista girl working my way through the university here, you might be...
...a fellow barista girl, with the newer of us being subjected to a bit of 'hazing' by the other, or introduced to the 'secret menu' we're expected to offer clients of knowledge and means...
...a commuter who needs a quick pick-me-up on your way to work or home.....
...the milkman from whom I'm supposed to receive any deliveries...
...a model talent scout who came by for a drink and happened to suggest an 'audition'...
...a franchise executive dropping in, either thinking of downsizing the location or looking for talent to groom; guess I ought to negotiate my future with the company...
...a rival executive thinking of buying out the location or franchise, and now wondering what openings and positions I could handle...
...the owner of a locale establishment you think might be more profitable employment for a girl like me, depending on what assets or talents an interview reveals...
...a burglar who suddenly has more in mind than the cash register...
...the special of the day might involve...
...the storage room or the back office...
...a car with tinted windows...
...a quad on the abutting university campus...
...the counter itself and a window sign you just flipped to 'CLOSED'...
...a couch currently devoid of college students and beatniks tapping away on laptops...
