When using the term in English jargon, "barista" refers to one who has acquired some level of expertise in the preparation of espresso-based coffee drinks. Within certain circles, its meaning is expanding to include what might be called a "coffee sommelier"; a professional who is highly skilled in coffee preparation, with a comprehensive understanding of coffee, coffee blends, espresso, quality, coffee varieties, roast degree, espresso equipment, maintenance, latte art, etc.

At its core, the program is really about hope. In the worst recession in decades, when even college-educated people struggle to find work, it takes hope -- and training -- for someone with a tarnished backstory and a spotty work history to land a job.

I knew that Starbucks (SBUX) had given its employees an intensive crash course in Via as part of its high-profile rollout of the new instant coffee product. But I didn't know how aggressive the company was training its employees to be. BusinessWeek is running a story on how Via sales pitches have gotten so intense that both baristas and customers are complaining.

Before I go blogging off, I want to introduce myself, but mostly my book, Driven to Espresso. It is a photographic chronicle of the unique, but ubiquitous, drive-through espresso stands in the Northwest (USA). If you don't live in our region of the world, you may be puzzled by that. You see, there are hundreds upon hundreds of them, and many of them are truly unique. So much so, that I decided they needed to be captured in an artistic way. As...
