In this economy, who would say no to a job paying $23 per hour, even with questionable customers?

How did you arrive here?

Welcome to your first shift at the Dogwatch Café. Congratulations or condolences, depending on how your first night goes.

This work is really simple, so you’ll pick it up quickly. It’s simple to keep your eyes open in the morning, but at night, they need their coffee. Don’t worry if they do; most of them just want their regular.

There is only one coffee machine, and the toppings dispenser almost always cleans itself. The boss replenishes it, so it should include everything you need.

The clients don’t say much, which is why I left you the book on the table. It includes notes on the regulars and how to determine what will make them pleased.

Pay attention to the calendar; some days of the week are particularly finicky. The radio also helps. The static is not random.

Good luck; you’ll do wonderfully.
