SYNOPSIS Meet Joanie Little: feisty redhead and anthropology graduate. It's the recession and she's stuck working as an Annex barista Eager to use her skills, Joanie turns her local coffee shop upside down when she decides to start reporting her "findings" on the "creatures" (aka humans) of her "Coffee Shop Jungle" as though she were Jane Goodall herself, bushwhacking through the African jungle to study the chimpanzees! Hilarity ensues! Indie tunes, co-worker showdowns and life lessons in under an hour. For anyone who has ever had a job they couldn't stand.
