Background:

The Desk has made a lot of comments about coffee from time to time. Most of the time it is about bad coffee.

For instance, from 'A Tale of Two Dorms':

​

...Dale was surprised they didn't need a fork to get the stuff out of the cup. This coffee was real John Wayne-hit-the-beach-and-sang-the-old-time-songs-to-his-rifle COFFEE! Wheaohwow. Dale said trying to get the bitterness out of his mouth.

Peggy stirred several small packets of creamer into her cup, it lightened the liquid a little, she dumped in sugar. She tasted it gently, then dumped in more sugar.

This coffee would do for double-shift longshoremen, maybe all-night truckers on the Ohio Turnpike, or maybe even red-eyed journalists covering two presidential candidates across five states in three days. But for two college freshmen who aren't veteran hard-core two fisted coffee drinkers, this caffeine and oil mix was beyond all doctoring of sugar and creamer. They finally gave up, and nibbled rolls, sipping juice...

The coffee cups forgotten on her desk, a thin layer of multi-colored scum forming on the surface...​

Two Dorms : http://www.themediadesk.com/2dorms/2dforwrd.htm​

The Media Desk has HAD that coffee, in fact, it has MADE that coffee. And drank it.

In various columns and write-ups individual cups of coffee have been referred to as 'almost a war crime', 'proof that God has a great sense of the absurd', and 'somebody brewed something that came from the other end of Juan's burro'. In his career the Desk has worked everywhere from prisons to truck stops, and one of the mainstays of them all, was the coffee.

Yeah. That's where I'm coming from.



This morning, one of the 'ladies' here exceeded that. .... all of that. In one shot.



She made a pot of automatic drip coffee that would best be described as industrial waste.



From what I can figure out, she put Twenty Four table-spoonfuls of one of a type of flavored instant coffees in the basket of the 12 cup coffeemaker, because the container says use '2 per cup' (teaspoons),



I tried half a sip of what was in the pot. It was, undrinkable. Even by my standards.



It took me ten minutes to get the sticky mess out of the coffeemaker's basket. We're lucky the thing didn't overflow, from the looks of it, it got right to the top during brewing.



That would have been fun to explain to the fire marshal: we had to evacuate the state data center because a 'boss lady' made coffee.



Evidently, she didn't see the part on the label that said INSTANT COFFEE in big black letters.

 

[Evil Eye]

Hmm... I had a glass of water.

That should've been interesting.

 

[DrLeftover]

Tell you what Evil, I'll see if she wants to transfer over your way.

 

[Martin]

Just ate a bacon sandwich and drank coffee.

 

[Evil Eye]

I had a glass of coke.

So you'll be rid of her?
