The coffee @ work is more like coffee flavored water...

My colleagues don't take it seriously either. I got one guy who will drink it pretty much however... He even reused day-old grounds. I've learned that I should only drink it if I am the one that made it.

I ordered a pair of hiking pants from REI a few days ago. They were expected to be delivered yesterday but I didn't get them so I looked at the UPS tracking info... It left Bradford, PA (which is about 90 minutes straight north from home) and was driven to Baltimore (about 90 minutes straight east of me). From there, they flew it to Columbus, Ohio (which is about five and a half hours straight west of me). From there, it was put on a truck and supposedly out for delivery. Given that Bradford is a couple of hours closer to Harpers Ferry than Columbus, I think they are doing it wrong.

I'm a little jelly... Mine doesn't usually make it past the commute.

We had a Keurig machine at my last job and it was perfect. I find that I really only want something in the early afternoon to wake me up a little. I don't drink that much of it - especially this time of year. But here we have an old-skool 12-cup coffee maker. Someone starts it in the morning and if there is demand, sometimes we make another in the afternoon. Kind of hit or miss...

Never really got into the whole coffee thing, now I used to love me some caffeine, but hot beverages were for extreme winter recovery. My brother in law drinks tea that is just below boiling every. day. of. the. year. I cant do it.

But I understand the need. This is why we have a Keurig and I buy the pods/creamer/sugar/cups. Plus they work at night, so there is that.
