Jaime Vandewerker decided to apply for a barista position at Aztec Coffee because, not just for a job, but for a challenge and personal growth. Jaime said there’s some glamor associated with baristas in the current culture because of the creativity that’s required. That appealed to her as well. “I was shy and I knew learning to relate to coworkers and customers would be good for me,” she said. She added that she has grown as a person, and that she loves the job. “I expect to keep on being a barista,” she said about her future plans. “It’s a great job.”
