I admit it. I have an addiction. I love coffee. And, I do enjoy having my morning meetings at the local Starbucks, where I can feed my addiction while enjoying good conversation.
But, the other morning, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I watched some guy get out of his car, walk into the coffee shop and sit down at a table with a coffee cup he brought in with him! No, not a mug, but a Starbucks cup from possibly long ago! (Mind you, it was 6am. He didn’t buy it somewhere else…)
Now, don’t get me wrong. I’ve had plenty of meetings where I was the only one enjoying the coffee. But, to have the guts to come in, sit down, do some “work”, sip on your pretend coffee and just leave…. that’s just not cool.
So, Mr. I’m-not-buying-a-cup-of-coffee/tea-and-I’m-going-to-make-you-think-I-did, we are on to you!
My coffee addiction has gone so far that I stumble out of bed and go downstairs and slam down a cold cup of coffee from the day before. Actually, this morning I think I drank 4 day old coffee…
