Power of association

I know I am a Fuel legend (as I’ve rambled about before when the WT site opened and my encounter with a new barista at Hunter St) and it’s great when it pays off for my friends. Just yesterday, a friend who goes regularly to WT was saying that they didn’t seem to know his order yet – that all changed after we met there for afternoon shorts …

“So I went to Fuel this morning, and they were all over me.
Yes sir, can we polish your shoes sir.
Clearly being a friend of the coffee queen is a good thing!”
