I read this some time later and notice that the iced coffee trend has grinded to a halt. i was right.

I concur that the johnie-come-latelys have lost out on the peak, but have identified new revenue streams and are now showing the stores with so called baristas that they are not so special any more. The people being hired at these specialty shops can some how get hired, but quickly revert to be the people they are when not at work and so goes the ‘experience’.

SteveO, I think they took far too friggin long in showing anyone anything. Most people are bored/tired/fat from specialty coffees at this point. I’d estimate that the fast food chains have lost hundreds of millions not capitalizing on these coffees.

You’re so fucking right about the motherfucking hacks who FINALLY figured out how to make some more jack. I do applaud the six figure earning sob’s for showing the rest of the world that coffee isn’t some complicated drink that needs to whipped up by some over paid barista who feels they need to be tipped for making something that anyone can do. It’s just coffee.
