Spiro

Tired of waiting for me to recover from my near death experience with the steam wand, my Manager pulled rank and hired a Replacement Barista.

Spiro is National Champion Barista three years running, latte art professional and all round top bloke. His two passions in life are coffee and fitness. He can do twenty two push ups in the twenty two seconds it takes to pour the perfect shot.

I hate him.

I have been relegated to the floor, where I must take orders, clear dishes and wipe tables with the New Girl.

Working the floor involves a lot of walking so I have insisted on a much longer lunch break, which I spend plotting Spiro's downfall and my Manager's slow and painful death.
