But why is the coffee gone?!

Anne Mommy

I work in a small clinic. We have a Keurgic machine for coffee. They company will not pay for the K cups so we all bring our own. It's common for someone to drink the flavor that someone else got but you never drink the last one unless it is your own. I bought a box and filled the drawer awhile back. Since I am pregnant, I don't drink much coffee but I do like a cup every once in a while. Yesterday someone that fills in here (and knows how we work) was here since I was out. She drank the last 4 K-cups that I brought. This morning it is cold and rainy. I came in and opened the office. I started the coffee machine and what?! Why is the coffee gone?! Erg!

Maybe put your name on it! That's what I do with the milk I put in my fridge at work. If I don't, others drink it!

She drank 4 k-cups in one day? Even if she hadn't taken the last one that seems rude if she hadn't brought any in!

This is a @#$tty system! How about someone with Amazon Prime places a "subscribe and save" Keurig order and everyone puts in for the coffee fund? Then it just comes automatically and you never run out.

I'd probably start stashing a few in my drawer as an emergency fund

Or you could go Ross Geller on the place and write a really mean note on your k-cups.  they'll start calling you Mental.

Hhhmmm...I would keep my own coffee in my desk drawer.  Just like I keep my own tea and snacks.  Those cups ain't cheap, and I wouldn't want to subsidize others who drink a lot more than I do.

Ugh that stinks! I had a good laugh at your title...in my head I heard Captain Jack Sparrow.

Sorry you ran out of coffee. I can't go without it for long.

Ugh, you guys either need a coffee club/chip in deal or keep it in your office. Or if you think that would be ill received, you should still keep an emergency box in your office just for you.
