I absolutely love coffee. I love drinking it, trying all the different preps, roasting my own beans, all of it. I started and ran a coffee shop in college. 2 friends and I basically convinced our business school to foot the bill and pass it off as a learning experience for us and have various classes do final projects helping (marketing plans, web site, etc). Even removing the need to turn a profit, it was a slog. Getting to the shop at 530a multiple times a week to get it opened, dealing with employees, dealing with shitty customers, dealing with suppliers, even simple things like managing cash. It was a great learning experience about business and I often want to open a shop again to get away from software development, but it's really not glamourous.
