Were looking for staff who are interested in offering people genuine hospitality. Our goal is to constantly challenge the status quo and destroy classic retail. Retail can be a rewarding careercustomers and staff should leave feeling more than just satisfied. We say that work should be enjoyable and help improve your life. Customers should buy things that help them enjoy their lives while having fun. We build community through our store and events that gather people who enjoy food cooking and hand crafted tools.
Restaurant experience is not required but is generally considered an asset; we love working with cooks and chefs most of us used to be one. Bonus points go to fans of Lou Reed Frank Frazetta or the Coen Brothers. We are hoping to find someone familiar with kitchen knives and sharpening them (but open to further training and feedback).
