getting moderately good at one of the services U pay for

I’m pretty proud of this cappuccino I poured but I’ve got nothing on a barista. Gives me so much respect and appreciation for people who have honed their craft!

CLEAN ESPRESSO MACHINES

BARISTAS!!!! Taking the shower screens off at the end of the day to clean is normal right??? Or am I actually over doing it? I got told off at work by the owners for doing that because apparently that’s a job for the technician who comes EVERY THREE MONTHS. The cafe I learned espresso at would back flush throughout the day and deep clean at close after only five open hours a day. The owners at my new place literally took the screwdriver away so I can’t even secretly do it even though I’ve been doing it for months. What the fuck. Careful where you get your coffee guys, it’s probably grimy as shit.

tipping your barista every time

as a veteran (ex-barista) i know how shitty you get treated for such low pay and how people throwing in an extra dollar or two for a tip does make a difference. i will forever be tapping 20% when the barista flips the screen around (or more even! depending) in conclusion, baristas are doing the lord’s work… show some respect ‼️

presumption of good will

I was going through the Ignatian approach to education today (adapted from the Spiritual Exercises for those keeping track at home) and this tenet is just so good. St. Ignatius says that a person, “ought to be more eager to put a good interpretation on a neighbor’s statement than to condemn it.Further, if one cannot interpret it favorably, one should ask how the other means it. If the meaning is wrong, one should correct the person with love; if this is not enough, one should search out every  appropriate means through which, by understanding the statement in a good way, it may be saved.” This is very Hanlon’s razor (never attribute to malice what you can attribute to stupidity/ignorance) and I just feel like having a curious posture like this is a major slay and makes us better people

Checking out ornate churches

Like look at this shit. Just kinda sick tbh. The Eastern church invented maximalism which is just very slay for them (even if you aren't into God or whatever I feel like you can enjoy old buildings with tons of art everywhere)
