I have spent the last few days looking for a new job, which is harder than I expected.
Although there are thousands of jobs on Seek.com, after crossing out any ad containing the words "team player", "all rounder" and "Gloria Jean's", only one remained;
Wanted:
Experienced barista for full time work in fast paced environment.
Funky inner city location.
Remuneration to be discussed.
After a brief interview, I arranged to do a trial, but upon arrival discovered that the "funky inner city location" was a coffee cart at Melbourne Central.
I explained to the owner that I was not comfortable being so exposed to the elements and the general public and that I would need to discuss my remuneration before getting on the machine (which wasn't a Gaggia.)
He asked me to leave and I said that I would be reporting him to Seek.com for false advertising, as there is nothing funky about making take away coffee on a train station concourse.
