Owning a café means having tough conversations—late shows, bad attitudes, write-ups, and sometimes letting people go. In this Pulling Shots episode, Sam & Kailee share real stories and practical frameworks for handling difficult conversations in a coffee shop setting without killing morale.

You'll learn:

Why "to be unclear is to be unkind" (and how to be direct)

Paper trails & write-ups that protect you and coach fairly

Gen Z vs. Millennials: giving feedback that lands
