Die Kämpfe dieses Kaffees

Battle Starbucks. Battle kitsch. Battle boredom. Battle your dick neighbours who should be selling ice cream, think they can sell espresso.

Battle bitchy customers, especially those who don't tip. Yes, your tea costs $3.00. What? You're indignant? Shut up and give me your money.

Battle people who pay with crumpled dollar bills. Battle mischievous kids sneaking in the back door. Battle the mushrooms under the sink, the rats in the basement, oh fuck battle the zombies in the basement.

Battle double shifts. Battle your co-workers by leaving vitriolic messages in the communications book. Battle dirt, burns, deranged patrons, broken mugs, faulty appliances, the tubs of butter & cream cheese.

These are die Kämpfe dieses Kaffees: the struggles of this coffeeshop.
