for some reason this video was mysteriously removed? hmmm. does starbucks own vimeo?

on a busy street in addis ababa ethiopia we witnessed an awesome global coincidence - the day was february 26th 2008 - the very same day starbucks shuttered its several thousand U.S. stores to re-train baristas - and half a world away the starbucks knock-off khadli's coffee had gathered its 50 or so employees (5 locations) for a similar training. same day. magical!

before this was snuffed out the footage shows kaldhi's coffee and captures some of the training session underway.
