Hey gang,
So, some of you kids know that I've started at the Roasting Plant, bagging coffee, selling coffee, not cutting my hair in far too long, etc.
Well, there's a couple of big changes that have occurred in the last three days.
I have officially resigned from Greenteagraffiti.com, the Asian Pop Culture site I started working on a year and half ago with my buddies AJ, Jonas, and others, and left on great terms, so that I can continue to pursue my writing endeavors while working my butt off in coffee.
Secondly, I will be joining the management staff at Naked Coffee. I'll continue roasting coffee and slinging joe, and I'll function as a "flex position" duty manager, essentially going between coffeehouses and committing various admin tasks on a routine, scheduled, disparate basis. I also get to talk in Manager meetings and do what I do best: say things that I know are absolute genius and full of import. Basically, because I won't be running a coffeehouse/restaurant, I get to treat manager meetings like a focused blog, bringing up ideas that I think are neat-o without the responsibility of implementing them. NOTE: That was a joke. NOTE ON THE NOTE: Mostly.
I think both changes improve the quality of life for all parties involved: the website deserves an Editor in Chief who can be as dedicated as possible, Naked management seems pretty excited about having me aboard, and I'm going to learn...well, a lot. I think. I don't know. I think listening. I'll be a better listener for sure. Or Kaylee and Inga will stab me. Necessity breeds obedience. I think that's how the saying goes.
So yeah, I'm gonna be writing, working a crap ton, making some money, and hopefully, hosting game nights on a regular basis.
To all you guys who haven't been seeing me, I've been super busy, but I'm thinking of all you guys! More transition is gonna happen these next four months, as responsibilities increase and writing output continues to grow, and I continue working on my physical capability, but it's all building for the better.
See ya on the Internets, kiddos!
Frank,
