Having this conversation makes me worry more. For the newcomers, its meant walking a careful tightrope. Pradzinski, the retail manager of the Intelligentsia, says he appreciates the citys already vibrant coffee scene, and since arriving here in December, hes been touring shops and attending Thursday Night Throwdown latte art contests. But he knows that the perks he can offer through his larger company can be an allure for hourly workers (Intelligentsia is owned by JAB Holdings , which owns Panera, Peets Coffee, Keurig, Stumptown Coffee Roasters, and the Boston-based Tatte bakery). Paid time off and sick pay, health, dental, and vision are hard to come by as a barista. And thats meant trying to hire while simultaneously seeming like hes not out to poach staffers. As result hes been looking outside of the industry and the city. One of his first hires was a woman looking to relocate to Boston from Alabama. The notion of poaching is a sensitive one. Several cafe owners contacted for this story said theyve been on the receiving end of calls from other shops complaining about perceived attempts กระเป๋า CHARLES & KEITH พร้อมส่ง ของแท้ to steal baristas away. We had someone who called us saying we tried to poach someone from there, said George Howell, the citys closest thing to a coffee guru, having ridden the last coffee wave when he sold his 24 Coffee Connection storefronts to Starbucks in 1994.
