Cafe supervisor quits during morning rush after boss tells them that anyone can do their job

• But a real pro will get the job done and make it look effortless in a way that a less-experienced worker never could, and it makes all the difference for both the customers and the other employees. 

  This may seem silly, but I really like to frequent cafes where the workers seem content, places where there's little turnover and numerous regulars. It's a shame to walk into a cafe and see the singular stress-out barista trying to make 10 drinks at once and take 15 new orders. It makes you feel guilty as a customer, and I just know that's no fun at all as a worker. 

  Bosses probably don't think about that kind of customer perception, but they should! It's a good way to actually grow your cafe. 

  Same goes for cafes where the servers get to create their own drinks or sandwiches to add to the menu. It's a little touch that means a lot to the employee and is a nice way to signal to customers that your barista is more than just a number on a scheduling spreadsheet.

• This isn't something you see every day! We often see tales of workers who realize that the newbies, the freshly hired incoming workers, are making several dollars more per hour than they are. Absurd! 

  But you don't usually see stories where the boss has literally lowered the hourly wage. I can't even imagine how awkward it would be if the new and old employees started discussing wages! As if the cost of every single thing hasn't gone up in price… it only makes sense that you should be paying your workers more each year to match the cost of everything else rising.
