What are They Putting in the Coffee?

I'm not really sure, but when you see the line of people standing outside the door when it's raining or freezing cold outside you have to wonder. They assure me that it's beans, cream, espresso, fruit, and no addictive substances. Who am I talking about? Starbuck's of course. You may not be able to function anymore without starting your day with one of their delicious beverages, but have you ever thought of working for them. I'm not talking about serving up hot drinks to the crazed coffee crowd for a sweet hourly wage. I'm hinting at corporate careers, managing regional territories, working at the production plants as logistics experts, or maybe even running your own store. One of the hottest companies in the past few years without question, and they don't show a whole lot of wear and tear on the tires. They are the McDonald's of the A.M. hours and beyond. That was a bold statement, but I stand by it. They have great training and benefits that lead to solid career growth potential...and plenty of coffee in the break room brewer. You look at a large company like Starbuck's, and you have to look at the mastermind behind all the popularity. Howard Shultz and his entourage of management men and women took this single Seattle store and turned it into the global beast that is publicly traded and growing at a healthy rate. I'd hop on right now to enjoy an exciting first step in your career. Plus, I'm sure you get free coffee and espressos to feed that little need of yours. Check out their career page here.
