I still work for Caffe Nero for the moment. My manager, Barbara, is really nice, Marco and my other coworkers as well, customers as well. Actually, it's a very nice job, when you're good at it. I am terribly slow, I take 3 hours to serve a customer and wash 2 cups, which kind of gets on my manager's nerves but she keeps calm anyway (yeah, she needs staff). Today, she fought with a customer, it was wicked !

The best thing in this job, that can also be the worst, is customers. If some are annoying as shit, most of them are nice and some are really nice. I speak for hours with French people (my manager doesn't say anything thanks to Customer Relationship Management) and I hit on some guys ! LOL ! When a handsome bloke is a bit lost and asks me for a favour, I do everything that I can to help him and I come every 5 minutes, asking : "Is everything alright ?", blah blah blah... And they are naively smiling, saying : "Yeah cheers." while I'm daydreaming about them... This I enable myself to ask them for cigarettes ! Oh come on, they have to serve some purpose !
