To be fair to all the customers that give me their unsolicited career advice, I work in a college town and I have a baby face so I don’t look almost 30 but I am lol. But BRO I hate when I get any variation of “you know, I did whatever boring job after I graduated. You should think about that!”. Not to mention the look of disappointment and surprise from random customers when they ask “so what are you going to school for? What kind of job do you want?” And I respond “This! I actually love this job 🙂 “ I get enough of that from my dad, I don’t need it from strangers.
Like, be glad that there are baristas that make a career out of this and can give you really good drinks, and not assume that EVERY hospitality job is a stepping stone into a boring office job.
