9:31

We have to overcome many challenges in the day-to-day operations of the coffee shop.

Marketing is designed to get you to buy. It is something we all do in our businesses.

To me, there is something special about the closing shift. Yes there is a lot of work, but there is an honor in tending to the place that just that day made such impact on so many.
