SHIFT BREAK! Engaging in the Right Conversations (or how not to accept undue guilt)

Did you know that, in spite of all the work you do for others, the sacrifices you make to run your business and do what you can for your staff, plus the positive impact on your community,  the you are ACTUALLY evil and/or complicit in the demise of coffee and the people in coffee?  Well,  if you listen to the conversations, articles, and headlines being created about you by people who don't know you and the details and nuances of the work you do, you'd be tempted to take on that accusation and guilt as statement of fact and forget about the good work and proof to the contrary in a bid to chase social standing among people whose job it is to find fault above all else. Not a great idea.  Today on Shift Break we will be talking about why it is critical that you choose to participate in and give energy to the right conversations so we can create virtuous cycles instead of downward spirals.  I am thankful for you all and the good you do for people through coffee everyday!
