I like the idea of placing small coffee/snack shops at the front of large stores. The people who are waiting on others can enjoy that time with refreshment. I like your videos (all of them) Keep us informed on yourself & the world around you!
I used to work as a barista as well (In the US). I saw the video you did with Natasha about Stars Coffee and I agree so much with how most coffee lovers don’t like starbucks. Anyway liked this video and made me miss being a barista.
Very interesting video, it's nice to see someone who puts in a lot of effort and takes such a professional approach to their job. My niece used to be a barista at Starbucks, but I never got to see all the behind the scenes action. Thanks for posting!
That was interesting Alena. When I learned that you were a barista I wondered what that might look like and here I found it. My goodness you seem to be quite busy during your day. Thanks for this video.
Thanks for sharing a small piece of your life and show all the people of the world what normal life in Russia is like. It's very interesting, at least to me.
I just found your channel (I guess the YT algorithm finally decided to show you to me since I watch Natasha) and I really enjoy your production style. You are a natural and I'd really like to see more of your creativity.
This is great, & thanks for the insight. Ever thought of a re-upload with you describing what you're doing? Your dark humour, knowledge and intelligence would make this 10/10.
In America, it is customary to tip the baristas. Do you get tips from your customers? Enjoyed the video you made with Natasha. Make more Russian life videos. Oh, can't forget, love the music.
I'm self employed doing transcription and we're getting taken over by AI so for a while, it was hard to make enough money as before and i was consodering other jobs. One of them was as a restocker for a Nespresso store. they were giving a Nespresso machine when you started lol, i should have done the training just for that. I also looked at the recycing plant, but you had to start at 7AM and as i would have to take a ferry i would not been there on time with the following bus in winter. If it was in summer i could get there on time by bike, i might consider it at some point. Right now i'm happy to still be able to work from home though. ☕ I've never worked in a coffee shop because i spend my life in them and to me, it woul dfeel weird to be on the "other side"... I was a bartender a long time ago and after i worked at my favorite bar, when i went there as a client it wasn't the same somehow, i was always wanting to clean up even when i didn't work there LOL.
Coffee in Khabarovsk seems swell and similar to most places, only with more hats. Also, you are clearly the Barista version of the protagonist fron the book “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance”, but with better hair.
So you literally run the joint for 8 bucks a day! Wow! Yes I've been checking out all your vlogs since watching your channel for the first time yesterday.
Hey is coffee stinger there then the USA 🇺🇸 and California is waiting for your welcome here anytime keep doing good job on your videos and your work stay safe and beautiful 😻 and you have a cute cat 🐱
Well, I came there with 0 experience and they taught me everything about the job in 4 days. I guess, it took me a month or two to say that I know the job well

Well nice video, but can you make a freddo espresso or frappe coffee. These type of coffee is popular in Greece 🇬🇷. Impress your customers with these two coffee's
I'm interstate truck driver in the states are trucks are really big 70 feet long with the trailer so it's really strict ware we can park for food and coffee so I drink truck stop coffee and if I get stuck at a shipper I have little gas stove I just heat up water and put pre ground beans from dunkin donuts I get at Wal-Mart and filter it through a clean sock into my cup but ya another thing we have lot of truck drivers over here from Russia you and Natasha should look into it the big companies really need team drivers so you drive say ten hours then she drives ten hours and so on and live on the truck and save money make like 60 to 100 grand $us a year somthing to think bout long term and lot ov female truckers here to so ya
The working conditions do not look bad however You did not say how many customers that you have on an average day. What kind of flavor is there in those bottles? At a place like Starbucks they have to mix all kinds of drinks including ice cream beverages. It is at least $15 / hr wages here (minimum wage) however everything is expensive, more than in Russia. Most people live well but are always in debt.
Oh a bit more. If a person has debt here, they might have a positive debt or else a negative debt. The positive debt is something like a mortgage payment and the negative debt is something like a line of credit. You can only get a line of credit (secured or non secured) if you have equity, so than you can get money that way instead of only through employment. Some people have a $100,000 or more line of credit....so there you would have lots of spending money that way. There you go.
Great video just wondering do u get free coffee since u work there? And what is your dream job? And you are beautiful by the way keep up with the great videos. I’m from 🇺🇸
@ 03:59 The logo on her apron displays a funny play on words: бодрый день vs. the usual добрый день. Otherwise, a very good job overall - many viewers must have found enjoyable the idea of using the less common time lapse technique.
Hello again. I think you must be the best employee...or does management filmmaker your actions each day. You know how many cups and lids are in a sleeve. So why is it necessary to count individual ones inside sleeve? Is temp cold in shop? Why do you wear heavy clothing? I'm sure your coffee is the best tasting. Do you have Nescafe? Haha. Americana coffee and Caramel Macchiato are my favorite. Do you have iced coffee flavors? I'm sure you do. This is very interesting...I like music in your videos😊
You basicly have the same job as me, as a warehouse worker. I work in a small warehouse, so i have to be all the functions. I even have to serve customers that are showing up. But much less of course, as i work with bolts and nuts. 😉 The work is all different, but similar work structure.
It’s really sad you’re not in America because with all that hard work and you busting your ass over here if you were to do that you’d be able to on your own Coffee shop be your own boss and make a lot of money I will no matter how upset you are just know that there are people out there who are rooting for you and just hope to see a smile on your face wish you the best and hope you have a great day
I noticed no homeless came into the store. in America the homeless almost live in the stores and smell bad and just destroy the experience. russia looks like how life was back in 2019 and before. just safe.
You look very good and professional at work! 🐁 The US has pretty good educational system 🐥 You should surely try to apply to study here then apply for a work visa and the US citizenship 🐁 God bless you vegan 🐁
Not enough customers. Here is an idea. Put up a sign: "Order a coffee and say hello to the world" . Then edit all the waving people one after another and publish it on your channel.
As a barista myself its strangely relaxing watching someone else do the work instead of me. 😆
😘😜
i am simple czech man. i see likable depressed russian, i click like.
It's just my opinion but slice of life vlogs like this are really fun! Please don't be hesitant to share mundane topics about life in Russia
I will! Thank you 💜
All that coffee has sped everyone up. 😊

Interesting look at a typical day of a barista in Russia!
Always satisfying to watch a job done well…

Price of one Starbucks
nah, she's paid more, the average sallary is like 500$ in Russia, and this job can't be 160$/month no way
@@limitess9539 Yeah she said she made what was about $12 a day plus commission. But she only works 3-4 days a week.
Love this video, I don't know why but it reminds me of the game Life is Strange. Probably because of the music.
big fan from saudia arabia
Very interesting videos.. also the music soundtrack is awesome 👌..
Nice job, Alena.
Being such a good looking young woman, i figure you would be more busy.
Thank you for sharing.

Hi, i would love to ask, how long it take you to know your job well, process of how to make a Coffee?
Well, I came there with 0 experience and they taught me everything about the job in 4 days. I guess, it took me a month or two to say that I know the job well
When you were in Россия. That coffee shop was the most beautiful in Россия.

That $15 -$18 is roughly equivalent to the minimum wage in 1960. This is mainly due to the high cost of housing today compared to 1960.
