It's well known to a fair number of my friends that I drink coffee and frequent Starbucks in Seattle. Well, in launching this site, I have spent more time than usual (which is saying a LOT) in putting the finishing touches on the site prior to going live.
A lot is said about the quality of the staff of a business when someone appears "parked" in their location; heads down, coffee cups everywhere, a recognition that those bleary eyes are the result of lack of sleep. Yup, the staff at Starbucks got to see that a lot over the last while. Always there with extra coffee, always hot and always with a smile and a laugh.
Well, I for one, am VERY thankful to the gang and really appreciate them. A great staff and a great place to have a coffee.
A special thanks to Zach, Zach (yes, both of them), Phil, Jene, Anna (the manager), Brittany, Jacob, Devin, Laura, Calais, Justin, Melissa, Matt, Richard, Travis, Lauren and Anna (the manager). Also, thanks to Lacy and Gretchen who came from another Starbucks to help while remodeling was going on as well as having to put up with me at their own location from time to time.
I'm pretty sure I would not have made my launch date without these folks.
