I did that whole - wait too long before I asked for names thing and they don't take names at the coffe shop, they just learn them through some weird small town grapevine. And I do get the usual which is complicated and when I don't, I get in trouble. No - you don't invite them to parties. They're not friends with the customers, they're learning your name b/c it's their service to make you feel like you belong. I have nothing in common with the coffee girls except we meet at the shop and talk coffee orders... so unless you think Suzanne and Amanda are totally engrossed in their noodles, you're not gonna wanna invite them to parties - unless it's a noodle bash.
