shout out to cosi employees!

so after about 3 ½ hours of being mopey laura, i decided that it was time to just get over it and be happy laura again. and i knew exactly where to start! with my cosi coupons! for the second time all summer we didn't have a lunch meeting and i was going to get me a cosi sandwich! for $6! it was going to be great. then maybe i would work at my desk, to try to atone for the fact that it would be about 1pm before i got anything done.

well cosi at lunch is MADNESS! there are lines EVERYWHERE! and once you get thru the food line, THEN you have the paying line. but they are well staffed and very efficient. AND THEY ARE ALWAYS SO FRIENDLY! and i love that. it's so chaotic and i imagine that some people can be short and frustrated, but in all my visits to cosi (this particular cosi at least), the people have been SSOOOOO upbeat and cheerful. and i love that. and i appreciate it a lot. i'm sure we all know of the starbucks experience where they made me cry. and initially, all those years ago, i didn't like cosi for the same reasons i didn't like starbucks. i thought they charged me too much for what i was getting and they were always crowded. but the food is very good, and i have decided that i will not get it all the time, but that it is worth the more-ness of the cost. and they're very friendly and i will never again think of them like starbucks. not to say that there aren't friendly starbucks employees. the man at the cville teeter starbucks almost made me a starbucks fan b/c he was so delightful during my first semester 1L finals. and i actually went back to the culprit starbucks last week and they were friendly. but that one experience. well you know how long laura can hold a grudge. actually, i'm not a fan of the cosi i went to the other week. hm. well anyways. this was another post that was initially going to make one point and then wound up not making a completely different one.

but thanks to cosi employees at the corner of 6th & indiana for being so delightful in the lunchtime crush. it means a lot to me. and to others, i'm sure.
