Spirit Animal

I learn something new everyday.

Today I was put behind the bar at Starbucks, making all sorts of Americanos, carmel macchiatos, and of course, lattes.

I was most intrigued, however, when a fellow partner (I have to finish my training in order to call myself a "barista"...) made a soy banana-strawberry blended creme. Well, she was peeling the banana from the top, so I simply said, "You know, you should open the banana from the bottom like monkeys do."

Her response: "The monkey is my spirit animal."

After that, I found myself with nothing to say.
