Well, as of today, after 8 years, I am no longer employed as a barista.
Yep, Ive hung up the tamper (actually, Ive just put it on the side of my own machine at home ;D) and will not be making coffee for pay any more.
It was my own choice to move on, after a local job was advertised that I considered applying for and finally got!
I am back in the industry that I have a passion for, (yes apart from coffee!) and that is aviation. I will be now an "office chick", along with an "assistant ops manager" and a "chemical stock controller" all whilst being able to catch a whiff of that Jet fuel!
But before I really sink my teeth into that job, were actually off for a 5 week trip to Cape York, camper trailers in tow!
So, if anyone comes to Wee Waa, please still go to the bakery, I have trained my replacement and hes doing great! But dont ask for me, I wont be there! (unless Im getting coffee or lunch for myself!)
Well, no more posting in the Barista Venting thread I guess! ;D ;D ;D

Might very well take you up on that offer, as I may be returning home via Brisvegas to pick up something for the car.
I feel for you brother... ;D Better get a couple more bathrooms in your home! ;D All the best with that, I am sure that they are all adorable princesses though! 8-)
