Welcome to the Credit Union Coffee Shop

Grab a mug, get some joe and pull yourself up to the table – it’s a big table so there’s plenty of room for everybody.

As far as the coffee goes, we’ve only got one kind and its strong and black, sterk kaffe as the Norsk relatives call it, so nothing will be too confusing around here. I’m sure Rena would share some cream with you because that’s how she is.

The conversation is just starting and we hope you will join right in. I know some people call this blogging but we don’t worry about what its called. It works pretty well because nobody can talk at once but I like to think of it more as a chance for everyone to get together and share some thoughts.

I guess I get the chance to do most of the talking so that means it will mostly be about the world of North Shore Federal. However, lots of things matter to the world of NSFCU so we should have plenty to talk about. The best thing is this will be a great way to share the information and questions that I get asked about the most.

Will it be interesting………….ahhh, now that’s a tough one. We’ll try but there is a good reason why I studied economics and not creative writing. I guess you’ll have to give us a chance.

One thing for sure, we’re going to make sure we are nice to people, ya know the whole Minnesota nice thing. If not, your comment will end up in the dumpster with the coffee grounds. We’ll try to post something fairly often but no promises – there’s plenty to do around here. We’ll start with a couple of items we’ve had on our bulletin board for a while and then work on something more current.

Anyway, that’s the end of my third cup so I gotta go. We’ll talk soon.
