Isn't "barista" really just a bullshit, faux-European-ish, feel-good pseudo-professional sounding term for somebody who simply works at a fucking coffee shop? Occupational titles should be given to people who have amassed many long hours of study and internship under the guidance of instructors and professionals, and are embedded in their industry for a considerable amount of time, not for some snowflake who got trained for a couple of days on how to mix coffee and milk together, what the fuck.

They didnt make me my unicorn frappachino

Yes, it's like for wall mart "associates".

People with no accomplishments in their live like to have pompous title for the meanlinless job they have.

Like, look how many job have the title "technician" and this is monkey tier job.

how else are you supposed to justify trying to raise the minimum wage?

>I deserve more money
>Why?
>I make coffee and give bagels to people

>I deserve more money
>why?
>I'm a barista

Most dumb people like to feel they are smart, intelligent and useful to society by giving cool nicknames to their shit:
> social justice warrior
> barista
> feminist

it can go on and on but I really have to take a shit.

Right? Why have words that define things? From now on, all baristas will be called "coffee place employee". And why stop there? Let's call cashiers "money machine openers", and we can call cooks "food makers". I think janitors should be called "dirty thing clean makers" and receptionists should be called "phone answerer and tell Mr Johnson I'm here for the 3 o'clock appointment person". All these job titles are so stupid! Everything should be made simpler. That'd be much more plusgood.

barista, sommelier, and mixologist
What else do you have?

When I worked at Best Buy I qas a "customer service associate". Most of the time I rung people out and ordered items for people too fucking stupid to click a few buttons and punch in their card numbers. To be a real smartass when someone would ask for a customer service number for brand x Id use my voice recognizer on my phone and say "x customer service number". I cant wait for retail physical stores to die as the people who shop in them were almost always stupid or poor.

buttmad OP got turned down by a barista

You didn't miss out, it was disgusting

I say this as a fat shit that'll eat practically anything

Subway's "sandwich artist"

>coffee shops
Full of Chinese hipster college students going to OCAD and UofT and old Europeans in socks and sandals and fanny packs, if you drink coffee you're not white

I KNOW and why the fuck do they call people "waitresses," it's such a pseudo-intellectual, faggy way of saying "bitch who brings me food." Can't stand these hipster pricks.

>a smart leaf
u wot

Hey why you kept your fellow white people down man?
They used the term barista so white people want to take the job.

>barista
>pompous title

People who add engineer to the end of their job title I didn't go to school for ee so some sound engineer could think he's my equal REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Lol what? What if I just have regular black coffee?

Is that what passes for a cute girl now?

Dear god, youngsters y'all is fucked.

Nah the Barista is the guy/girl who makes the coffee drinks. Doesn't include dish monkeys or service staff.

Being a Barista in a coffee shop is slightly above service monkey because at least you have a skill.

atleast a sommelier has to have the knowledge of the stuff he's talking about.

A barista, as it's used, is basically just a coffeelady. Now, you have actual baristas which are worth the title

When I was in an indie cafe in London last hear I found "Coffee Technician Supervisor"

You missed the point, Barista sound poumpous in the head of these snowflakes.

Isn't "barista" a feminine word in whatever language it is? Why don't male baristas want to be called something else?

Isn't Barista trademarked by Starbucks? I've never seen it used elsewhere. Is it a fake Italian ending applied to the word "bar" or is it an actual term somewhere?

I generally don't mind coffee shop workers, they seem to work hard and be competent and attentive at what they do. What's your problem, m8?

They use it in Costa.

No. A real barista knows about coffee and how to prepare it. They'll know the properties of each type of bean, how to make their own blends, how to prepare androast beans and so on.

The "baristas" you see at some shitty shop like Starbucks are what McDonalds workers are to reach chefs.

ill never forget the day i ordered a 'small black coffee' and you could literally hear the record scratch and silence from every ''''''Barista'''''' as they stared me down. they couldnt even.

I once saw a job at Subway advertised as """"""sandwich technician""""""

sommelier is a title, it requires alot of knowledge and expertise. Barista means nothing because we have machines doing the job baristas used to do, brewing espresso was hard

Isnt every job title?

Isn't a sommelier someone who serves wine?
Arent landscapers just bossy gardeners?
What are you angry about?

>trash collector

really got the brain tingling

>t.Barista

If you drink tea you aren't white, only asians and anglos do.

You are entirely correct.

Sweet, which kind of tea are you drinking right now?

True that, there was a woman at a car selling shop that proudly told me she was a chevy """ambassador""", she looked really happy about it even though she couldn't tell me what the fuck being an ambassador for a shit car brand in the middle of nowhere means

You like it like you like your dick in your wife eh?Anglos are the only species of human on earth, therefore they are the only whites since man was made in Gods image. Anglos are the true man, the only real man on earth because they are the only true humans. Why is it they created all civilisation? God gifted man with the KJV which he spread to every corner of the globe to civilise the savage species

>spot the butthurt barista

Why get mad about something so insignificant? Who cares what they call themselves?

Yes 100%.

It's an evolution of job titles similar to how places will sell something for $.99. There isn't really a purpose to selling something for $.99 other than that it sounds like you put thought into the number. It's not that anyone thinks it's fooling someone, but that it's a level of professionalism that we've come to expect from those that are putting a modicum of effort into their business.

So a slightly fancier job title works as a way of showing you weren't working for a drooling retard even if it sounds silly.

kys, barista

Normies are pretty stupid, 'baristas' are really just glorified coffee brewers doubling as cashiers. There is nothing special about their job but hipsters fight over that job since it sounds european, so it must be prestigious. Normie scum are all about surface, not substance.

My garbage is collected by a sanitation engineer.

I'm a barista, also at Melbourne uni and a member of socialist alternative.

Working at a cafe fucking sucks guys.

This thread is a valid reflection of how the public treat you.
They all come in from their horrible corporate jobs and dump snide shit on you, especially the women and gays.

I never used to be socialist until I started making coffee for the public. They're awful

Sommelier isn't nothing like the others lol.

it's just a job lmao. They're just trying to get money to pay their boarding fees.

>Pssh, why didn't they just ask their parents for money?

I'm drinking coffee.

Hmmmm...

I've only ever heard americans say it tbqh

I thought it was the Wrestler that betrayed Triple H?

>have to take a shit
Go do it in the remnants of those Palestinian apes water-reserves.

Yeah, but it's a damn good job as far as food services go

I mean seriously best job I had (that was minimum wage)
>food and drinks easy to make
>cute girls show up all the time
>niggers don't drink and can't afford overpriced coffee
>50% off of overpriced food turning it to reasonable

I know man, it's like coffee machine is hot science now.

I like to think that "barista" is derived from a "barman", since baristas are pretty much retarded barmen that can only make coffee.

Look, you dumb fucking cunt, the issue isn't using words to name things, the issue is using snowflake words to name things that already have names. Your actual occupation is irrespective of where you work. You're not a goddamn "media communications engineer," you're a fucking PR guy. You're not a goddamn "sandwich artist," you work fast-food. Enough.

In Italian, batista means bartender. These Starbucks employees needed something to call themselves besides coffee pourer.

True, being a barman especially in non-crowded places can be extra/comfy/

>Occupational titles should be given to people who have amassed many long hours of study and internship under the guidance of instructors and professionals,

>Cleaner

Checkmate OP

>Work at Starbucks because desperately need money
>Tell people I make coffee
>"Oh you're a barista?? :^)"

No I just make coffee for teenage girls and libs

>your face when I act like I'm tipping into the tip jar but I'm actually pulling money out of it
