    try { person.DrinkCoffee(); } catch(BadTasteException ex) { throw ex; } Rethrow the exception towards your boss. He might pick it up, otherwise it might be picked up by the runtime or the debugger. ;P

      Euh.... right, the garbage collector will eventually come, if you stop thinking about your rather untasty cup of coffee. You can ofcourse call Dispose on it :D

        It does have a softer taste. I normally don't drink tea, but I've become a fan since my mum made tea the other day. I can recommend it as a replacement for coffee on the job.

          Tea already has caffeine in it :) http://www.holymtn.com/tea/teacaffeine.htm[^]

                Go on strike, form a union and picket the office. Call non-strikers scabs and through things at them and get all the transport unions to strike as well; if your not in France then just ask for nicer coffee and a mini fridge with milk.

                  Add more sugar and top it with more milk. That's what I did when I first moved to Toronto - the 2 coffee flavors Dundas used was too strong for me.

                    You should never add milk to coffee, why ruin the taste ? Coffee is supposed to be strong.

                    You need to have a cup of South Indian coffee before you make that decision.

                        Maybe do what I do. If I have to buy coffee somewhere (like Starbucks) where the coffee is STRONG, just cut it with hot water (or re-heat in a microwave). I can ususally get a good two cups of coffee from one Starbucks coffee (and not the lattes or the other crap they pass off as coffee).
