Is The Coffee Fresh? Confessions of Drama, Dysfunction and Daily Life at a Downtown Coffeehouse

Have you ever
asked yourself, "Why Me?"
A framed picture
has disappeared from the men's room wall... the freezer is suddenly and
explicably on the fritz... a man at the counter can't comprehend the cool
cantaloupe soup... and the health inspector just walked through the door. Don't
panic - it's just another day at Ambition Coffee House & Eatery.
Business
co-owner and author Marc Renson takes you on an entertaining, outrageous
journey of madness and mayhem experienced in the daily operation of Ambition,
one of downtown Schenectady, New York's most popular restaurants.
Read about celebrities
who eat there and meet "the regulars" who keep the staff hopping with
their cosmic questions: Is the sandwich special good? Does your cream of tomato
soup have milk in it? Will the Cajun spices bother me? And of course... is the
coffee fresh?
And while you're
at it, contemplate the question - Do crazy people really wear red shoes? The
answer may have you glancing through your own closet.
Interestingly
enough, enduring the insanity of what people say and do results in an
understanding that everything happens for a reason. There is a purpose for
meeting all the people along life's journey, and they collectively contribute
to the certain fact that there is an answer to "why me"... it is
because dreams really do come true, as they have for proprietor Marc Renson.
As Marc would
say, "Welcome to my world… and my ambition!"
