How much is the salary of a barista? Is there a future for Starbucks? The present situation and Future Prospect of baristas

Do you want to be a barista? I believe this is a problem that many coffee lovers have thought about and struggled with. In this age when coffee is popular, baristas have gradually become what people call "just dawdling". Is it true that baristas have no room for development except to make coffee?

First of all, let's think about a question: why do you want to be a barista? (give you 3 seconds to think) "because I like coffee", "because I like drinking coffee", "because I like making coffee", "because the barista's job gives me a sense of accomplishment", "because the barista looks very literary and artistic." it's your ideal life. "because the barista's job looks easy and comfortable."

(please remove the monitoring in my mind) , there is no need to install monitoring, because most of the friends who are already engaged in baristas thought the same thing at that time, and then they joined the profession. However, after entering the profession, I found that the barista is not as good as he thought, because in addition to brewing coffee and knowing coffee knowledge, you also need to have social beef beer, to be able to repair all kinds of water and electricity furniture, to be able to take pictures, to have a kidney that can hold urine and a stomach that can starve.

Haha, no kidding ~ the main problem is that the salary is not ideal, the monthly salary is only 3k-5k, and the job is not as easy as imagined, and not so many people will appreciate the hand-made coffee, but also face the evaluation of their own brewing by different guests. I feel uncomfortable, and then I find that I haven't learned anything. Is it true that there is no room for development in the barista business? Coffee is not only fine coffee, barista is just a general name, he can be a roaster, trainer, coffee shop operator, coffee competitor, coffee match referee and so on.

Feel like you don't fit in with this? No, you can do it, too! But the premise is that you must jump out of the comfort zone and not be satisfied with the status quo. Baristas feel that they have no prospect because they spend too much time at the bar, specializing in how to make good coffee, how to pull flowers, and enjoy the sense of achievement brought by the approval of the guests.

When we take a closer look at those successful coffee practitioners, how many stand obediently in the bar? They will constantly learn all the knowledge about coffee beans, not only brewing, but also so detailed that the variety of earthworms can affect coffee cultivation. Don't think that this has nothing to do with baristas. Coffee growers are baristas, and coffee bean hunters are baristas. Baristas have a lot of room for development, but everyone limits themselves to the space for making coffee.
