So if Capitan Janeway jumped off the CN Tower, would you jump off the CN Tower too? :) Anyways, I like my coffee with cream and sugar. Double cream, double sugar is how I usually order it. :) Tim Hortons's coffeee is the best. :)

Black, baby. None of this over sweetened, diluted stuff for me! Though I will make an exception for chocolate covered esspresso beans.

I voted black, which is how I usually drink it, although Im more of a starbucks specially coffee guy. I really like those new Frapicinos that you can buy just about every where.

Yeah, for me it was during basic training. All those long, early morning road marches in the middle of winter. Anything that could help keep me warm and awake was a necessity.

 

Of course Army coffee is so terrible it made me sick to my stomach later, but hey, it was better than nothing.

One of my many college jobs was General Manager of the campus coffee house. I hated customers like this.

 

But the unlimited free gourmet coffee was a popular benefit.

But thats what Dunkin Donuts does.

Doesn't it seem a little strange that Dunkin Donuts is so proud of their coffee... and doesn't even advertise the donuts? :)

It's because they want you to buy the coffee because its perfect to dunk dounuts in :)

I hated customers like this.

So, if i walked in and said, "I'd like an espresso," you would hate that?

 

Or maybe if I walked in and said, "I'd like a coffee with cream," you would hate that? You musta been one cheerful kinda guy!

 

And gormet coffee... iich!

I work in prime Dunkin Donuts Territory, and quite honestly, most of us stop there for the coffee, not donuts. Finding good road-coffee isn't easy so when a fast food place of any kind has it, we'll find it. I say it's a great marketing move on their part. They also recently added real espresso to their menu, so there's one more smart move. Does it bother me that they have "donuts" in their name and not "coffee"? Um... no. lol

Well, no, I didn't mind the customers who knew what they wanted and knew what it was called. What I hated were the customers who had no clue - like the ones who asked for a latte made with chocolate milk (If so it's not a latte, it's a mocha.) or the ones who grabbed the wrong drink off the counter (How the heck can you confuse a single espresso shot, about an ounce, with an iced vente latte, about 20 ounces and cold? I swear it happened at least twice a shift.).

 

Or my favorite pet peave, those customers who told me halfway through making the drink that they want it iced or with decaf espresso or skim milk or whatever. For one customer in particular I had to start the drink over 3 times. I ended up using $6 worth of ingredients to make a $2 drink. Of course this was pre-1995 when the industry was in it's infancy and such drink combinations were not as common as they are today.

Anyone who has seen the movie "Clerks" remembers this famous line:

 

"What do you mean there's no ice? You mean I have to drink this coffee HOT?"

I'm sorry but I use to be a coffee junkie. I'd drink coffee almost every day. Thanks to the Starbucks that's right across the street from where I live.

 

But as of late I've been drinking green tea with ginseng. I haven't touched a drop of coffee in months and I feel great. I don't know what the tea does but the ginseng helps wake me up in the morning and I've never felt better. Coffee is just really bad for you with all that caffeine being put into your system.

 

Another wierd thing is that even though it's Flu season, and I've always been the first person in my family to catch the Flu for the last decade, I have yet to have gotten the Flu while almost everyone in my family already has or just got it with the incoming cold weather. How strange, maybe it's cause I don't drink coffee or soda anymore. I guess it's all those anti-oxidants in the tea. :)

 

::Knocks on wood:: Gotta keep this wierd luck going :)
