The Challenges of Being a Starbucks Barista

Whether you work for Dunkin’ Donuts, Starbucks, or Rook, baristas know what it’s like to handle people who want “their” coffee. If you took a look behind the counter, you’d realize it’s not as easy as one might think to work in a coffee shop. It’s not simply pouring coffee from a pot and handing it off—that’s a really insulting assumption. Everything is complicated, whether you’re cleaning, making drinks, calling the line or working the register. Baristas are excellent multi-taskers, and I pity the person who thinks it’s a brainless activity to work in a coffee shop.

The Outlook’s Opinion on Awards Season


Lights, camera, action! It’s that time of year again—awards season. Every year awards season comes around and many debate on whether or not to watch the variety of different awards shows. From movies to music, the entertainment industry set forth a wide array of shows that hope to gain the attention of a media consumer audience. The two main categories are music and movies. Usually, this would cover the interest of most everyone, but it seems to be that the hype and allure of awards shows is dying. The editors of The Outlook discuss their interest levels.
