If I Was a Good Barista: A Handbook of Burnt Fingers, Misheard Orders, and Pretending Latte Art Is a Personality (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798268315127)

Behind every foamy latte and perfectly poured cappuccino is a barista just trying to survive another day of endless orders, spilled milk, and customers who insist their "extra hot, half-caf, oat milk, no-foam mocha" is simple.

This hilarious book serves up 80 sarcastic tips, each paired with a short, laugh-out-loud scenario that every barista (and coffee lover) will find painfully relatable.

☕ The unspoken rule: latte art counts as a personality trait.
☕ Customer translation guide: "Not too sweet" means "add five pumps of syrup."
☕ Why baristas should get hazard pay for touching 200-degree steam wands.

Inside you'll get:
✔️ A witty, sarcastic "tip" about the joys and chaos of coffee shop life
✔️ A short, funny real-life-style example

Enjoy it one tip at a time on your coffee break-or binge all 80 while pulling a caffeine-fueled closing shift. Either way, this book is your survival manual for life behind the espresso machine.

Perfect as a funny gift for baristas, coffee shop workers, café managers, or anyone whose blood type is officially "cold brew."
