    Hey man... we were hiding over in the 'cubby' by the Art-0-mat machine. I've missed you the last few times I've dropped by Open Eye. Are you going to Coffee Fest DC and the MARBC?

    I currently work at a coffee bar inside the Atrium at Crozer Medical Center in Chester right off 95. It's not the dream job but it does pay the bills. I am looking to upgrade to a coffee shop with a more personal feel. That's why I joined this site.

    I have a few friends who work at the Chestnut Hill store. I met Jon a few months back when Clover was doing their coffee tour with the new machine. Which is incredible. His shop is beautiful.

    Hey Scott, good to hear from you. No, we won't be able to go to the mrbc. most of us around here are just now finding it out about it. I'm not sure why that is....

    Hi Scott,

    How nice of you. Hope all is well. Seems I pass you at the gym every now and then, and that's about it. Maybe when we live in the same town that won't happen.
