    A list where you make your mark when you get another coffee. We have our own coffee machine here as we want not just coffee but great coffee.

    The putrid, muddy, insipid crap they try and pass off as coffee in the office does not get a look in. We have a machine at home that makes excellent coffee and I would rather drink water than the gunk they have here.

        we have a regular need for ~ 3-4 mugs of coffee a day. That was stable for the last year. This month we have drank 40% more. My blood must be brown by now. dark java brown.

          I count the paper coffee cups in my trash bin every day... 3 means I am good ... 10 means I had a hard day.

              sorry, I'm a java developer - for me it's a CoffeeList:

              CoffeeList oList = new CoffeeList("March");
              while(true){
              oList.add(new Cup());
              if(100 < oList.size()){
              triggerHealthWarningAction();
              }
              }

                We have a very good machine at work. It grinds the beans on the spot and makes the coffee. And they are good beans. Sometimes I bring sugared pomelo peels (home made) thus bringing my blood pressure to dangerous levels :~

                  You can tell that you've spent to much time in the office when the coffee list is exceeding a certain amount.... I have more than 100 coffees in the list this month :sigh:

                  I forgot to bring any beans in this morning so it's office coffee for me today. We have a Nespresso here but I'm not overly keen.

                      The very fact you have a coffee list is a sad reflection on your working conditions.

                        To have a great coffee, you need to put such tracking points..Or else folks missuse it and company spends too much eventually it shall be discontinued. Atlast u end up going back to lame coffee machine. So its good to have a coffee accounting list, but its bad 2 consume 2 much caffine.. Plus these machines deliver poweder milk. Thats yuck!

                          I work for a company that is rich enough not to bother tracking how many beverages one consumes. They also pay for petrol to and from work to home, any books or technical journals, they buy our home laptops and pay for our mobile phones. They also give a nice Xmas bonus and 25 paid days furlough each year. They expect you to work, which we do.

                                  Thats very nice to know. Not all companyes are gernous like that. May be we should all join to your company so that they eventually remove all these facilities :P
