Who makes the coffee in your office???

[Mrs. Bordsmnj]

I was just told (by someone other than my boss) that since I am the first one in the office, that its common courtesy to make everyone's coffee, even though I don't drink it. My response was a big F-U! I am not the coffee bitch. Not that I think I am above such a task, wait, yes I do. I am the HR manager, not the secretary.
Make your own coffee, you lazy a-hole. :yuk:

Extra cream and sugar please :D

[topless]

In our office, the first person here does make it BUT we all drink it and whoever drinks the last cup makes more. It is not delegated to any one person and I toatally agree that if you don't drink it, don't make it.

[hotsand65]

I agree, I don't drink coffee I drink diet coke so does the first person in need to have a. ice filled diet coke ready for me?

[Sleek-Jet]

Me, or one of the handfull of people that I have personally trained. And I can tell when someone has deviated from the recipe... :mad:
Good coffee is a matter of pride. :D

[InKahntrol]

Our office has the same unspoken rule... the first person in makes the coffee. But... we all drink coffee. Of course I got around that by purposefully making two really bad pots in a row. Now I'm banned from touching the coffee maker, which is how I like it.

[YeLLowBoaT]

If you don't drink it, you should not make it...go tell them to go drink some hot coffee while going 35 mph over speed bumbs... :crossx:

[Do F150's Float?]

My boss likes us...so he bought us a case of monster :D

[Ziggy]

Something I don't worry about...I let the coffee drinkers fight about it.

I make the first pot (well, I push the proper button) then we have a schedule the ladies in the office follow.

[hoolign]

I grind my own and make it every single day!

[Mrs. Bordsmnj]

I will make my husband or my friends coffee in a heartbeat. Who has ever been camping with me and not had coffee first thing in the am??? :rollside: I bet even my husband will tell me to refuse to make coffee for the people in the office. Next thing they will be having me wipe there asses.

[JetBoatRich]

Coffe at home only :rolleyes: and that is made by my wife, who sets the timer and it is ready when we get up :cool:

[chub]

I'm a Building Engineer, we all make coffee.

First one in... always, in every business I have ever worked in, for or owned.
The only difference is, I always have had the first manager in make it. It takes a manager to open the door, so technically they are always the first in.
The guys should be getting to work, manager taking care of things such as opening up, getting the compressor running and hitting start on the coffee maker.
When I am here first, I make the coffee. Additionally, I make it even though I swing by sixbucks on the way to work, so I have mine already.
If you are in HR, you understand the value of morale. Coffee is liquid morale first thing in the morning.
I don't see the big deal, but I have never taken personal offense to doing things perceived to be below my position. I have nine people working for me here at Trident, and I clean the shitters every ninth time, including the ones I don't use (shop and womens rooms).

Well I guess everyone is better than me because I don't make coffee for people. :rolleyes: :boxed:
If the coffee drinkers are so worried about their coffee being ready when they come in, they can set the timer the night before. I don't come in the office first to prepare the office for everyone, I come in early to get my own work done.
Maybe I just don't get it because I don't drink coffee. :rolleyes:

This reminds me of the water bottle policy I was just informed about.
I couldn't figure out for the life of me why everytime I go to get water, that the damn bottle was empty. So I always have to go get another bottle and put in on the cooler.
I was mumbling about it one day and one of the "gals" overheard me and said, "Oh, the reason you do that is that women here don't change the bottles when they get empty."
Huh???
"Oh yes, women shouldn't be changing those heavy bottles when there are men around."
OK, but isn't it in everyone's job description that we have to lift 50 lbs on occasion. Changing a bottle once a week is on occasion.
"Maybe so, but women don't change the water bottles."
Well, managers don't change bottles, women don't change bottles... and I'm just a supervisor... guess who get's to change the bottles?

[JetBoatRich]

We have a automatic machine that all you have to do is put in a BOX of concentrate coffee and the hot water mixes with it once you pull the little lever. Or I go to the service bar and press a little button on the 15K machine and it grinds and spits it out in less than 15 sec. AH, HOTEL life

The first coffee drinker makes the coffee in our office, even if the owner is the first. Most people in our office don't drink coffee.

I take amphetimines so I don't need coffee, but it would be nice if somebody would have a Xanax ready for me to calm my jitters.

Hey, you are the one making the big deal out of it. You asked, we responded. I don't think you are looking for input, I think you are fishing for support and not getting it so you are getting defensive.
You clearly aren't going to make coffee for anyone regardless of what we all say, so leave it at that. You are bucking a well established and understood policy that has been around since well before I started working. Nearly universally, the first person in (or junior person... which most of the time is the same person) makes coffee. You don't drink coffee and are offended by the insinuation that you should make it for everyone else, so tell them all to eat a dick. Case closed.
On the other hand, if your boss wants you to make coffee, you should. It is up to them to delegate all responsibilities in the office, and coffee making is one of them. I have highly trained people empty trash cans as part of their jobs.
If it isn't your boss asking you to... let your conscience be your guide.

You sound like a lot of fun to work with.

[Mrs. Bordsmnj]

I make the coffee at home and I have a big Brookstone mug that keeps it hot past lunch time if I want to take that long to drink it.
We took turns making coffee at my last place. First one (Coffee drinker) in makes it. The person that empties it made a new pot.
Hey Linda, Here's a thought. Agree to it and tell them you don't even drink it so who knows how it will turn out. Make it real shitty for them. Too strong, too much water etc... Pretty soon, they will ask you to stop.
Reverse psychology cause it will be their idea for you to stop. :skull:

I've been asked to make coffee, not a chance in He!!. Never seen anybody grabbing me a soda out of the machine or water out of the cooler.
Pretty much the only people that think everybody should make a pot are the coffee drinkers. I'm glad I don't have that ball and chain on.
Also I've never heard of any time honored tradition to make coffee, and I'm regretfully older.

So let me get this straight.....some of you believe that just because someone gets to work first, they are responsible for making the coffe, even though this person is NOT a coffe drinker. Are you Kidding me????
I can telly ou this much, if ANY one in my office came up to me and told me since I am the first one in the office I have to make coffee I would do 2 things.
the first day I would show up really early and make coffee for everyone......except I wouldnt fill the coffe maker with water (you can figure out what it would be filled with yourself).
and from that day on Iwould purposely show up a hafl hour late EVERY day.
If you are not a coffe drinker why should you be expected to make coffee for everyone, that would be like telling someone who is not a smoker that they have to light cigarettes for everyone because it will increase morale.....Bull Shit......caffeine is just like nicotine.

Come on H, when have you ever been the first person in the office??? :D :D JUST KIDDING! Luv you! :boxed:

[Froggystyle]

I just called your office and talked to all the non-coffee drinkers. You shall soon have a mutiny on your hands...... :rollside:
Well, it would be a one-man mutiny by a 16 year old... Methinks it would be a short-lived insurgency rapidly and efficiently put down by a 9 man strong crew of caffeine addicts led by two SEALs...
Bring it on... ;)

I was just told (by someone other than my boss) that since I am the first one in the office, that its common courtesy to make everyone's coffee, even though I don't drink it. My response was a big F-U! I am not the coffee bitch. Not that I think I am above such a task, wait, yes I do. I am the HR manager, not the secretary.
Make your own coffee, you lazy a-hole. :yuk:
I'm tired of hearing "IT'S NOT MY JOB". It's about being a team player.

[INFINITEJJ]

Hey, you are the one making the big deal out of it. You asked, we responded. I don't think you are looking for input, I think you are fishing for support and not getting it so you are getting defensive.
You clearly aren't going to make coffee for anyone regardless of what we all say, so leave it at that. You are bucking a well established and understood policy that has been around since well before I started working. Nearly universally, the first person in (or junior person... which most of the time is the same person) makes coffee. You don't drink coffee and are offended by the insinuation that you should make it for everyone else, so tell them all to eat a dick. Case closed.
On the other hand, if your boss wants you to make coffee, you should. It is up to them to delegate all responsibilities in the office, and coffee making is one of them. I have highly trained people empty trash cans as part of their jobs.
If it isn't your boss asking you to... let your conscience be your guide.
Well said.

You can take care of this issue very easy. sleep in longer so you are not the first one in, problem solved. :)

[CA Stu]

First one in... always, in every business I have ever worked in, for or owned.
The only difference is, I always have had the first manager in make it. It takes a manager to open the door, so technically they are always the first in.
The guys should be getting to work, manager taking care of things such as opening up, getting the compressor running and hitting start on the coffee maker.
When I am here first, I make the coffee. Additionally, I make it even though I swing by sixbucks on the way to work, so I have mine already.
If you are in HR, you understand the value of morale. Coffee is liquid morale first thing in the morning.
I don't see the big deal, but I have never taken personal offense to doing things perceived to be below my position. I have nine people working for me here at Trident, and I clean the shitters every ninth time, including the ones I don't use (shop and womens rooms).
I have a janitor for the poopers, but as the boss, I sure make coffee whenever anyone else wants it made.
If you want the people that work for you to enjoy being there, act like you work for them. Everyone will be happy at the end of the day.
I did have one guy working for me that refused to make coffee because he didn't drink it. He showed up late, I said, "Just fire up a pot of coffee and we'll call it fair enough" and he was a jerk and made a big fuss about "I'm not going to make it because I don't drink it."
Didn't impress me with his selfish attitude, so he doesn't work for me any more.
Lot nicer around here without his arrogant, stuck up, selfish "me first" attitude, too.
Thanks

PS If you don't want to make it, just put too much coffee in the filter. People will beg you not to make it.

Only on ***boat could we have a thread 118 posts long about making coffee. :) :coffeycup :coffeycup
"F-U! I am not the coffee bitch"... classic. :)

Interesting. Coffee "makes me sick", period. And I mean physically sick - by the smell of it. Hate to be a bitch about it but unless it was in my job description I would have a hard time making it. If I worked in a restaurant, I would expect to have to make it - but not to help some caffiene addicted morning junkie help him make through his/her day if its something I don't even drink. Granted, if my job were on the line, I'd be making the coffee, but you wouldn't like it......................

[DRMCAT]

Make the worst fuc*ing coffee he has ever had. It it will be the one and only time he asks you to make coffee! :220v: :crossx: :skull:

Clearly, you folks haven't worked with very good managers. Good managers would take this as an opportunity to teach you to get it right, and if continued poor performance could be expected, make you look incompetent for not being able to do something as simple as add this many scoops of this ground up brown stuff to this cup every morning after adding this much water. I would make it my mission to turn you into a barista, as I believe that employees that would rather have you believe they are incompetent than insubordinate need training, not latitude.
MBMJ... I have been thinking about this. Tell me if you think this would work... I am being serious about this, so don't poke fun or get defensive...
Agree to the coffee program. Under these conditions... Someone, clearly a coffee drinker preps the machine the night before. Make the most vocal proponent of you making coffee be responsible for this job. You agree to turning on the machine in the morning, and nothing else.
If the coffee drinkers want coffee ready when they get in, they can do all of the work and clean up all of the mess. As the first in in the morning, it would be a nice thing for you to do (not mandatory, nice...) to flip a switch on when you light everything else off. I assume the coffee maker isn't an automatic one, in which case this wouldn't be an issue.
I can't imagine how anyone would have a problem with that. Coffee drinkers get coffee, you flip a switch since you are first in. Great compromise.
Whaddya think?

[Rexone]

My coffee is always ready when I get in and its always made the same. I just put the guys at 7-11 in charge of firing it up each morning.

Chuck is one of those jar head earlier guys, goes to work for Ca. something or other catching bad guys, has holes in different places of his body that were made by lead or sharp steel. He gets in charge of an aera at folsum - has an office of his own New gal comes on board great looking big boobs , he asks her to get him some coffee, bad looks come his way, but in a few days she does bring him some coffee, down the road he has to go into the yard to get a dude to cool it, no weapon . they end up on the ground and hear a cur- chang of a weapon and look up it is my friends woman companion worker with weapon now cocked, the inmate who knows of the problems between them, looks at Chuck and asks WHO is she aiming at! That is a true story I am kind of stupid at times as we and 12 people are at a sushi whatever resturant am coached by Chuck on what of that shit might be cooked a little, I tested a little he asked me how is it i look at his now wife Julie and tell the truth, it tastes like an old girl friend. So i live through that one the fancy people are roaring. ..so we are on a cruise you people know the deal dress up look pretty, so i am at the head of the table look at my female friends [Julie]and challange the guy at the next table that my gals had bigger boobs then his table. It calmed down after security got there so julie has not killed me yet but will see them next week. Now back to Capitan Morgan and talk with him some more. Over and out........
