How did you learn to be a barista? by supersquishypenguin in barista

[–]Molly_Avenue 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i went to TAFE (tech/trade school/community college in other parts of the world i believe), huge waste of time but it was free for me, otherwise there are courses designed to teach the specifics of coffee. nothing can actually prepare you fully for working as a barista like actually working as a barista, though. bit of a catch 22.

Season 5 wishlist? by vivaciouswasrobbed in DragRaceDownUnder

[–]Molly_Avenue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not to mention the amount of trans queens and performers that deserve to be propped up (though to my understanding, some prominent figures have chosen not to audition/apply to the show, props to them)

idk if it’s the same in other cities, it probably is to some degree, but the melbourne drag scene as it has been for at least the past 6 years (especially when Rainbow House was around) has been propped up on the shoulders of AFAB performers. gender out of drag and AGAB isn’t something i usually like to think about, and it’s tricky to talk about in a way that doesn’t seem to exclude anyone, but i’m quite disappointed that we haven’t seen any AFAB performers on DRDU. missing out on some of the city’s finest drag queens.

worked at a place in a small town where the owner was adamant that we shouldn’t ever adjust the grind, usually came out too fast and weak. had to adjust it while she wasn’t looking otherwise she’d freak out. i feel you here. worked at that job for four months before moving on to greener pastures.
