Do You Remember Your First Job?

You were probably nervous and excited about making a good first impression, to show up on time, wearing the right shoes?

Do you remember your first paycheck? Scanning the envelope and making discoveries inside. What was the first thing you treated yourself to with your own money?

How about your first manager and first set of co-workers? Did they inspire you, make you laugh or work harder? Or maybe your first job experience didn’t go well and you had to try again?

Most likely, you took what you learned from those experiences to your next job to build on from there.

Sip and Ship is like that for many of our employees. We are often their first work experience and what it’s like to become a member of a business team. Over the years we’ve heard you ask, “how do you hire such good people?”

There really is no one answer, but what we have learned is that Sip and Ship looks for people-centric, team-oriented and compassionate individuals. From there, we provide them with an environment of mentorship and leadership. Creating a culture that embraces service through kindness and empathy for others. As a team, we are able to make mistakes together, learn together and grow together and view our partnership as an extension of each other.

Team Sip and Ship is looking forward to providing you with a safe place to sip seasonal snickerdoodle lattes, shop for the perfect holiday card and gift, and ship ribbon-wrapped and tree ready packages to your loved ones during this very unusual holiday season.

From our family to yours, please stay safe and may you find small joys throughout the season to celebrate.

December Hours: Monday-Friday 9am-6pm, Saturday 10am-5pm & closed Sunday.

A thoughtful gesture of gratitude with a beautifully wrapped treat heightens the anticipation, happiness and enjoyment of the receiver.

Sip and Ship understands the value of sharing and sending thanks to others in a variety of ways. This season, we look forward to helping your set the mood of gratitude. From hostess gifts to client appreciation through small acts of kindness that provide comfort and care, Sip and Ship has the perfect way to extend your gratitude to co-workers, friends and family - both far and near.

At Sip and Ship we believe that being able to take care of our team, helps them better care for you. Therefore, we plan to close both Ballard and Greenwood stores on Thanksgiving and the day after (Nov. 26-27th) to give our team the chance to celebrate with their friends and family and to rest up in preparation for a busy holiday shipping season.

We will reopen our doors on Small Business Saturday (Nov. 28th) to help you stock up on your holiday gift giving. With any purchase, from coffee to cozy socks, Sip and Ship will donate 10% of your purchase to Mary’s Place as a way to extend our gratitude to you for your support and our work together to reinvest back into the Seattle community.

Sip and Ship is grateful for the opportunity to serve you and we look forward to seeing you soon.
