I have a second job as a barista during the week where I work in a coffeehouse and prepare speciality coffee.  Do you go to many coffee shops?
I have a coffee shop in my town but have only visited there a few times. Do you enjoy your work at the coffee shop?
Yes.  the one I work at serves not only coffee but also snacks, muffins, pastries and much more. It is a lovely way to meet new people and chat.
I can see how that would be a pleasant work environment. I wish that I had more time to visit my local shop.
I know what you mean.  Life is so busy. In my cafe though many people go there for a date. It can be so sweet and romantic watching first dates happen.
That is definitely a perk! I can see how someone would choose a coffee shop to have a first date. The environment would be just right.
It really is.  Imagine your initial meeting being somewhere so relaxed and open.  You could plan future activities and form friendships or relationships.  Coffee shops are much more than they seem.  Baristas see it all.
I think that people should spend more time just hanging out and relaxing with each other. And at a place where there is no pressure or competition.
You are too right. Go out for coffee with friends when you can places like Starbucks which is such a big american company or any like that are perfect venues. 
Did you have to have a lot of training to become a barista?
yes a bit but anyone can do it really with a bit of practice.  Thanks it was lovely chatting to you.
Have a nice day.
