cute, are you single?

[@RyanDeanDexton]

no sorry I have a boyfriend

[@sweettea735]

Oh my god. Am I interrupting something? 😳

[@jupamoers]

Get a room, you two :P

Babes, get in the queue 🤭

I know both of you stuck tighter together always as teddy bears🥰🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🥰

[@nerdherd007]

As a former barista, this gave me ptsd flashbacks lol. But, I'm glad you're working in such a chill environment and have a positive attitude! This is what I wish my barista job was like.

[@pelusococina8809]

im glad you transitioned from culinary to barista you seem much happier

[@chloekhamxox]

Looks like he still cooks!

[@GarrettWease]

the vibes are truly immaculate. love how you included the vlog conversation with the customer.

[@MsTwiththeTea1980]

Amazing 😊

[@omentwo7597]

I started out in the Food and Beverage industry as a Barista and eventually graduated from the Culinary Institute of America and am currently working at a 3 Michelin star restaurant. Your journey so far has been so inspiring to me and I feel like I relate so well with it. I appreciate the content you put out, Ryan and I wish nothing but the best for you! Love from Singapore!

[@Rc1023]

Seems like Ryan had the opposite route

[@omentwo7597]

@@Rc1023 hahaha yeah exactly which is why i find it weird. The opposite yet strangely relatable

[@ko-kf2nu]

hey chef,im actually very confused if i should become a chef or not.I have my own small cloud kitchen,when its busy,i love the rush and the feeling.Also love cooking.But just dont know if i should become a chef and work 12 hours a day with little pay.Please advice me?And is the industry as bad as they say it is?

[@kassondrahennessey7912]

Same here, I’ve been cooking my whole life but I’m stepping into my culinary journey next month. I’ve been working as a barista for 2 years and start culinary school in February. I am actually really happy I started as a barista because I’ll have that background knowledge as well. I spend all my free time studying everything I can with cooking and applying it any way I can to my daily life. Cheers to all who take the dive 😊

[@omentwo7597]

@@ko-kf2nu hello there! I don't think I'm fit to advise you in any way. While it can be true to a certain degree that the industry is bad, I do personally find some good in it, and to me, it's up to you to see what you can make of it. If cooking does bring you joy and you're comfortable living with the little salary and long hours on your feet, then perhaps stick around a little longer. But if there are other extrinsic factors Eg. family etc then perhaps you might want to take a step back. There is no shame in trading in your knives for another job and vice versa. As long as it makes sense to you and serves your self-interest.

[@ianarjay]

Can see that this career change is really making you happy ❤

[@robm7449]

This video is extremely chilled. Just a cool dude at work.

[@lanudeiscco]

tbh i dont even like coffee but if this man was my bartender id drink EVERY SINGLE COFFEE DROP

[@marialuizadcn]

I felt super nostalgic while watching your video! I used to work on a cafe as a barista and even though it was chaos sometimes, it was for sure my favourite job ever. I loved doing latte art - and learning how to do it because I was a beginner - and to chat/interact with clients. I guess working in a cafe has been romanticised for years so it’s good when someone shows how it works daily, like you did. Hope you enjoy your work like I used too. 💖

[@AtinyElring]

@@babs0970 may i ask why it was your favorite? i’m thinking of applying for a barista position as my first job.

[@umasaha9559]

I am saha I watching you video from malaysia

there’s something lovely about making a love heart atop your own drink 🤍

[@yunglynda1326]

you take a lot of pride in your work and it shows!

[@that1monk]

chillest dude evar. ❤💜💙

[@carltwidle9046]

Alot of hard work. Makes me appreciate these workers. Not that i haven't, but i didn't know what goes on in the operations of a barista. I'm a coffee addict.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

I’m so happy to see an update on the channel. I hope Joe and you are doing well. Also, have a great 2023!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Ryan, I love the fact that you have a spring in your step and you’re in a more pleasant work environment. All the best!

[@silviacherillo605]

I don’t know why I find really cute and attractive those scene where u do your coffee ahh I love it

[@cheekynandosss581]

Oh I looove this. It seems so much fun for you plus better hours and work life balance, we love to see it! So glad you’re enjoying your new career 💖 also this cafe looks so dope, I love that you can make traditional matcha and you’re weighing your coffee and can taste test before the day starts to make adjustments!

[@lifeofsome]

This gave me such nostalgia when I worked at a coffee shop. Im interested to hear how you picked this place and some of the favorite things you've enjoyed so far.

[@Ozeki_Negima]

Great to see an update from you mate. I went through the soul-searching period a few years ago when I traded my knives for a new start. Wishing you well, happy new year!

[@RandomPerson1]

Loved this! Always enjoy your "day in the life" episodes. I find them so entertaining.

[@TarMarz]

i'm so shook that I completely stumbled upon this video by merely recognizing the coffee shop backsplash tiles and then I registered I know you from going there myself often 😂 i'm tripping out at how randomly I found this vlog - anyway i'll say hi next time i'm there 😅

[@simongamez]

it's refreshing to see someone on yt doing a normal job. great video!

[@georgemead9922]

This takes me back to when I worked at some really busy 3rd wave coffee places, there was some stress but there was something I really enjoyed about working there.

[@thienhoang9957]

chef ry could you maybe do video on how to ADJUST THE GRINDER, WHEN THE ESPRESSO IS TOO SOUR OR BITTER?

[@jobonthego]

Finally, a barista content creator! Thank you algorithm! So glad I found this channel

[@wablasian]

Stopped everything when I saw you upload

[@johnnymartinez2048]

You look very happy at what your doing! At the end of the day, that’s all that matters is that your happy and you did your best! Lots of love from San Antonio Texas ❤️

[@razineatworld]

More of this please

[@WeLoveSoCal]

this looks like the coolest coffee shop, just from the mugs and glasses being used, and the to go cups are so cute. you take such care in your work and the way you guys prepare the beverages. this was so calming somehow haha thanks for sharing

love the energy. blessed watching this today. ✨

[@_justpeachy_004]

I love working in different creative fields like culinary, drawing/painting, music, etc. I’m gonna start my first job soon after my 16th birthday and I’ve been wanting to work as a barista for a while. I finally found an available place and the atmosphere is so calming and sweet. Definitely a good place for me to start. I wanna get more experience from videos so I can at least have some basic knowledge other than my own coffee-making at home😅

[@paigeinglis9774]

aww I used to work at tt - this gave me major nostalgia! glad to see it is still thriving. you're doing great, have fun!

[@Kameshwari108]

So nice to see you at this job. Since I'm currently visiting San Francisco Bay area for a month, and feeling homesick for Vancouver. Your video made me feel how much I appreciate Kits and the best coffee joint in all of Van. Be well, Dear One & Happy New Year. Seeing this video, made my night.

[@robertescobedo7335]

LOOOOVEEEDDDD THIS! These are my fave kind of vids you do! ❤

I don't know why I watched this. I am literally spending every day like this, yet I was very curious lmao ...I really like the vibe of your shop! our is chaos 😔

[@midnighthourdreams]

I love being a barista, thought about having my own cafe. It's soothing to me even when I'm slammed.

[@chmukxalish6399]

Oh my gawd my first week ever as a barista is over and i just don’t know how you guys do it, first time ever on the POS had a customer yelling at me and telling me to get off the register and have someone with experience run the POS it was stressful to say the least my boss was surprised I came back the next day for work I didn’t want to but this is my only source of income so im going to stick it out being a barista

[@Frogloovveerr]

It gets easier with time!! Good for you for trying something new, just remember that even if someone is yelling at you you can always control how you react! I used to get startled now I’ll just stare at anyone who decides To yell, you’ve got this!! Don’t let meanies take away from a fun job! “It can be fun”

[@NoobMaster-ey5sy]

mind if i ask how you are doing with it now? I’m still training so i’m very nervous for opening day

[@marendenise5212]

@@NoobMaster-ey5sy Just stay calm and realize that while this is a source of income, its a great learning experience! There will be ups and downs that are sometimes stressful and sometimes awesome. Depending on where you work, the customers will be different but there are still some kind people out there! But sadly, there are some meanies so be cautious and friendly! As for drinks, if you have prior experience it should be easier but if not, taking some time, even 10 minutes to look at basic definitions and tutorials on the Internet or in books. I’m a bit late, but i’m sure you got this! 💕

[@NoobMaster-ey5sy]

@@marendenise5212 thank you so much! I did a lot better than I thought I would do, and it helps a lot that I have amazing coworkers and an incredible boss. I still get nervous before every shift but for the most part it’s gotten easier :)

Haven't watched your videos in ages but this just came up on my feed, and I have to say, there's a really nice pace and mood to your job. I especially enjoyed seeing the setup, sort of the calm before the storm. Have you ever done a video on latte art? I still can't get my patterns right at home!!

[@carl_oak]

Really like the work you put into framing and editing. Hoping for more coffee-related subjects XD

Good job there and all the best🥰

the way u Edit the video is so good. love the shots

Just a way to save your wrist later down the line, when tamping, put your fingers on the base of the tamp and push. The pressure won’t end up in your palm then your wrist 🥰 no carpal tunnel here folks. I would look at some videos (love James Hoffman)
