Eh, your sending mixed messages.

Anyway, we get free coffee, tea, hot chocolate.

I just bring this up evade I don't drink coffee on my own time but I HAVE to now at work.

Healthy employees are less productive. Burden them under a mountain of medical bills and you'll get the most production out of those aching, miserable bodies as they try desperately to pay their bills.

Its science. Caffeine increases alertness.

Coffee in the workplace should be SOP. It's a little thing that goes a long way with employees. If you disagree you're either trashy or a choad.

I don't drink coffee, so I don't expect it to be furnished. I do drink a diet soda most mornings, though, which I happily subsidize myself.

Maybe I did of sorts. It ain't any of your business. Accept my findings or get outta here.

There is no such thing as "free".

We have free soft drinks, tea, and coffee in the cafeteria. Some days it's been by far my favorite thing about my job

I have encountered only a couple of places that don't, and I have encountered several that provide coffee but make you bring your own cups. They are both un-American. Coffee is dirt cheap, perhaps even cheaper than dirt.

My office provides coffee, but it's shite. Me and a few other folks bring in the good stuff (French Market dark roast with chicory).

They should also have a stack of Colgate wisp throw away brushes.... Because the people that drink 3 cups of coffee in the morning and don't brush their teeth all day have some nasty arse breath... That's usually the same ones pulling on half a pack of smokes out back throughout the day as well.

I supply a keurig with about 10 different types of coffee, cokes, water etc. It's just a sign of appreciation.

I've never liked coffee but enjoy a nice coffee induced shite. My office only has kuerig coffee and it's so terrible that I kinda like real coffee when I get it.

It's a nice thing for employees. Where I work, we used to have to pay $5 a month for coffee, but they recently eliminated that. Shoot, I have friends who work at places where they'll provide snacks and soft drinks of your choosing. If buying a six pack of Diet Sunkist and a box of Little Debbie Star Crunch once a week keeps a good employee happy, it's a small price to pay.
