I worked at Starbucks for a while, and heard many different stories from the diverse people working there about how they'd ended up in their job (for me it was the benefits and the ability to get extra hours pretty easily even at other stores - a perfect college job), but I didn't work with someone quite like Michael Gates. This was a very easy read, and fairly repetitive, but a very interesting story.
