osaka:
It's technically their "selling" point regardless. That would spread by word of mouth and people would be interested in the bitchy bachelorette baristas. Obviously that fad has passed, but it's probably what people remind them from.

Still, Dora had established that and Faye has trained the newcomers in contempt up until her ultimate firing. So that's taken care of.

ReindeerFlotilla:
I think the Coffee at COD is the main selling point. I'd say something funny, but I got nothing.

Dora makes a good cup of joe. While they snark about (and sometimes do) serve less than standard stuff, their customers probably don't notice (the same way science proved that sommeliers can't tell "good" wine from cheap or will identify cheap wine as good if you change the label. All of those tests played on the subject's expectations.

It's not that all coffee is good and people are just stupid. It that CoD's coffee is good, and people rationalize when they get a substandard cup.

The CoD sass was what put the store on the map, but Hanners is just straight up nice, and Dale seems to be too chill for the old barista zing. Word was CoD was still growing, so odds are they outgrew that phase and the custom is there either out of nostalgia or because it's good coffee.

jwhouk:
Yeah, but her coffee's nothing compared to this little place in Minneapolis...

cesium133:

"What are we doing making meth?"

Kugai:
Hmmmmm

I did suggest at one stage she was going to wind up as a Maintenance Worker on Hannerdads Space Station
