Caffe Positano

Busy and friendly espresso bar / bakeries / coffee roastery (Caffe Positano, on Paseo Delicias and on San Dieguito Road), waking up the Rancho Santa Fe community *since 2002*, are looking for outstanding baristas.NOTE: Your total earnings at this job - wage plus tips - will range from $22 to $27 per hour. Indeed doesn't have a field to show this, so I'm highlighting it up front. It's never just about the money, but knowing what you will actually earn as a result of working at Caffe Positano is important. As an employee, you can also participate in a Roth IRA employee retirement savings plan that lets you participate in the market.For many years we've placed first in SD Union Tribune/Rancho Santa Fe Review's Best of North Coast in the Cafe, Coffee Shop and Bakery categories. Why? 'Cause our baristas are excellent, our food &amp; bev are top quality, we are very fast, and our customers love us!Been thinking about a better place to work? If you want something better, where your boss cares, your schedule is predictable, your coworkers are solid and customers are happy to see you, I'd love to talk with you (our first conversation will be by phone, so please look for that call). Baristas tend to like this job a lot - most work here at least 3 years, and since 2002 many have enjoyed this job for 5 to 13 years. Our vibe may just suit you better than ever (and the tips range $5 to $15 per customer-serving hour depending on the shift. Remember, that's in *addition* to your paycheck wage).We are filling openings across all shifts, so your training here is all about taking you from your present level of skill to the point where you are capable of going fast while maintaining the high level of quality that is our standard. Experienced baristas tend to get there faster, but everybody - regardless of level of barista experience - requires time to become hands-on familiar with how we operate, our recipes, shift-tasks, and how everything is laid out.High integrity, and a friendly, can-do, teamwork attitude are most important, and barista experience is a *huge plus. No matter what you already know, we'll train the right person. Maturity, great vibe, getting along with coworkers and stable work experience/history with good references are super important.If you're seeing this long after it's been posted, go ahead and respond - we're always looking for good people (and we take care to find them).We serve our customers the full complement of coffee drinks, blended drinks, teas, and we bake on site. One location also serves frozen yogurt. We're open 7 days a week and some holidays at least in the morning. The proprietor craft-roasts all the coffees in small batches - Yes, we're a Roastery, too! - and we get a lot of love for that java. Check out our Craigslist post for photos and our Instagram @CaffePositanoRSF for more pics and Google us for more than 20 years of our story. It's a great atmosphere, and our customers are wonderful!Must Be Available at least 4 shifts a week including both Sat and Sun (and the tips on weekend shifts are outstanding :). We're always busy, and we have busy weekend shifts to fill as soon our new person (you!) is up to speed.Shifts run 5 to 7 hours - a terrific job if you have other obligations (college students, parents etc). Our 20 years of experience has demonstrated that high school students (for a variety of perfectly normal reasons) are rarely ready to handle this job.Typical Shift Hours: We Open at 6am (7a on Sundays) and close at 5p (3p on Sundays) - no night shifts! Yay! Following are our &quot;normal&quot; shift times (which we sometimes modify when someone is out or we are short-staffed): ** Closing shifts: 12:45p-6:30p (1p-5p serving customers, approx 1.5 hrs closing tasks = usually off the clock by 6:30p) - new employees typically train in and graduate into closing shifts, where they can get their moves and speed down. ** Mid-day shifts: 7:15a-2p (7:30a-1p serving customers, approx 1 hr tasks = usually off the clock by 2p) are available after you've practiced to the point you're no longer thinking about *how to do what you do; your body just knows the moves and your mind is on what's next, managing the line of customers, and shift-tasks. ** Morning shifts: 5:30a - 12p (6-10:30a serving customers, 10:30a - 12p tasks = usually off the clock by noon) - achievable after you're really in the flow (but if you learn fast, we'll get you into these shifts ASAP).Total weekly hours average 25 to 35 (4 to 5 shifts), with regular opportunities to score longer or extra shifts. After training, you'll settle into a predictable schedule *of the number of hours you need* that rarely changes week to week. Everything just works better when you know what to expect (days of the week, shift times, total hours, the actual money you earn), right?If you already have solid barista experience, are smart about how you work, learn our operations and recipes well, get along with your co-workers easily and are generally a good human being, we usually have opportunities for you to graduate into some earlier, high-tipping shifts :)Our locations are within 2 miles of each other, and you would be scheduled at both locations and ultimately for a variety of shift times.This is *not* a temporary or seasonal job - if we love you and you love us and our customers, we want to keep you!**Check your commute** by using our zip code 92067. Our employees tend to commute from Solana Beach, Encinitas, Del Mar, Carlsbad, Escondido, Vista, San Marcos, and Oceanside.Working here gives you an opportunity to learn and do much more than most baristas. Your prospects of landing this job get a boost if your previous employers will sing your praises and you are responsible and eager to learn our recipes, processes and procedures.Some things our customers say about the people who work here: good vibes - skills! - &quot;plays well with others&quot; - funny - smart - mature - artsy - hard-core - articulate - enthusiastic - precise - efficient - clean - fast - integrity - musical - easy-going - good judgment - conversational - knowledgeable - detail oriented - interested - engaging - &quot;you always have great people working here&quot;.We are serious about how the business is run while creating a fun, friendly time working together.Feel that you already like working here? Please respond with...<ul><li>why you want the job and why you feel qualified</li><li>work experience summary with start and end dates - your resume would be best, but don't delay your reply to create one if you don't already have one</li><li>education summary - where and when you went to school, and highest level achieved</li><li>reference contacts with phone numbers</li><li>a summary of your availability for work, by day Monday through Sunday (also give us a heads-up on any already-planned periods of absence - vacations, etc. - over the next several months)</li><li>your phone number and best times to reach you; our first conversation will be by phone, so please look for a call.</li><li>your *direct* email address </li><li>If you have a resume, please include it.</li></ul>Your response says a lot about what kind of employee you are, so please do answer these questions thoughtfully :)EOE/Drug-Free/Drama-Free WorkplaceImportant: Indeed wants to automate many aspects of screening and hiring as though that can all be handled with an app. That may work well for some kind of worker-bee office job, but not so well for Baristas.If based on your application you seem like a good fit, the most efficient and effective next step is for you and I to talk by phone so we *both* can get a sense of who we'd be working with (it's a two-way street, after all). So be sure you include your phone number. I am telling you this so we can *both* work toward that next step - our phone conversation.Job Types: Full-time, Part-timePay: From $16.90 per hourBenefits:<ul><li>Employee discount</li><li>Paid sick time</li><li>Paid training</li><li>Retirement plan</li></ul>Application Question(s):<ul><li>Do your co-workers find you easy to get along with?
