I think you'll be expected to drink the blood of the innocent.
Oh, that's fine. I mean, usually that's more of a Tuesday thing for me, but I can adjust for a friend.
without warning, overnight, they removed all the coffee makers
That's awful!

Why would they do that, Sparky!?!
My first and best guess is that it is a money saving thing.
ETA: This is after they cut the hours of the cafe in the building, so it didn't open until 11 a.m. during the regular semester, and now that we are in summer session, they have completely closed it.

Here, they just made us start bringing our own pods. And we have an old-style industrial coffee maker in the main lounge.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It seems really crazy to me to remove coffee makers as a cost-cutting measure. Like Sophia, people here bring their own pods.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The solution, obviously, is for the company to provide coffee, but only for those people who can close sales.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
In my department, there are pods provided, but we're on the honor system to pay for them. Something like 75 cents per pod. And, for some reason that I don't understand, we're not allowed to bring our own pods, which annoys me, because I don't like any of the ones they stock.

Oh, man, taking away coffee with no warning is evil!
We lost our toaster here, but there was a lot of discussion both before and after it happened as to why.

Not allowed to bring your own? like if you kept them in your desk you would get in trouble?
I find that bizarre.
New work place (the doublewide) has a Keurig, which I am very happy about. I am sure I will be in charge of buying the cups, so I will eventually get some vanilla and hazelnut for myself.
Old annoying co-worker is apparently being a giant drama queen since I left. Made a big show of cleaning out my desk and wiping down my white board (all it had on it was flight info for the month for all the directors and VPs I supported. She also pushed back some job duties to the Directors and THEY LET HER. unbelievable.
