Specifically, they are the ones who welcome everyone to treat themselves and feel good. And they implement La Vita Dolce&#8217;s values as they do.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We keep\u00a0a Barista Book behind the counter in which our staff\u00a0share about something special they did during their shift that really demonstrated our purpose and values &#8212; so they&#8217;re sharing with each other. I also get feedback from customers about our staff. Now we&#8217;ve decided to &#8220;complete the circle&#8221;\u00a0by sharing with you &#8212; our customers and the community &#8212; about our staff.<\/p>\n<p>Each week we&#8217;ll choose a Crew Member of the Week. This person will\u00a0have done something outstanding &#8212; what we&#8217;re calling the &#8220;Dolce Moment of the Week.&#8221; We&#8217;ll share with you who we&#8217;ve chosen, a little bit about them (our crew is made up of absurdly\u00a0interesting and multi-talented people), and they&#8217;ll get to pick a gelato flavor to be made by us that week. We&#8217;re leaving that wide open &#8212; so we could end up with anything from Chili Pepper Gelato to Double Chocolate Fudge Brownie Gelato.<\/p>\n<p>As we start this weekly recognition and sharing, <strong>Erin (our Manager) and I are asking for your input.<\/strong> If you had a great experience with one of our baristas &#8212; or witnessed one of them\u00a0do something particularly thoughtful, caring, welcoming or otherwise exceptional &#8212; please let us know! You can email us at <a href=\"mailto:lavitadolcecafe@gmail.com\">lavitadolcecafe@gmail.com<\/a> or message us\/post on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LaVitaDolceCafe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>. And maybe that barista will be our next Crew Member of the Week.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for your help! And stay tuned for a\u00a0new and probably\u00a0pretty unique gelato flavor each week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The most surprising aspect of running La Vita Dolce over the past 22 months has been how much the staff [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,7,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-726","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-our-crew","category-the-cafe","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/726","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=726"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/726\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":909,"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/726\/revisions\/909"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=726"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=726"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lavitadolcecafe.com\/staging\/6170\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=726"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
