I know similar vibes exist at other coffee shops in Louisville (@SafaiCoffee, Dayโs Coffee), but it was good to have the experience I had today in light of the recent Heine closing. #RIPStore5
Thread: As a former Heine Bros employee that worked at the Douglass Loop store in the early 2000s, I was disappointed to see it close abruptly yesterday. When I landed a job there, I felt very fortunate. I lived nearby and I was well-compensated for the duties I performed.
Today, I was able to spend some time at @oldloucoop While the coffee was good, the atmosphere of the store was better. I saw people connecting with each other similarly to the way people would connect at the old concrete patio tables outside of the Heine on Longest.
@joesonka@BillHollander@courierjournal I agree with mandating vaccines, but having the option of regular testing is not enough. There needs to be a an additional insurance premium. The vaccinated are the ones picking up the slack for the rest of the community.
