Somewhat reminds me of an article on work place behaviors where the client comes into a high priced law firm to meet with a lawyer about something. He sees a female and tells her to get him some coffee and then heads in to sit down at the table in the meeting room. A few minutes later the lady walks in, hands him a cup of coffee, and takes a seat at the table. “I bill by the hour and that cup of coffee just cost you $80. Now what can our firm assist you with today?”
Kopi luwak or civet coffee, is coffee that includes partially digested coffee cherries, eaten and defecated by the Asian palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus).
I was once asked to make coffee ( to be fair, everyone took turns). I told the person that I’m a Mormon and don’t drink coffee, so therefore I have no idea how it’s made. I could try but I wouldn’t be able to promise on good results or a functional coffee maker afterwards. They found somebody else.
I am actually old enough to remember when a pat on the butt was a complement and a sign of affection toward the female in question. Then alas something called TAILHOOK happened.
My mother was the Comptroller for a large eastern rental company. Visitor tried that too. Five foot of pissed off old lady is not a pretty thing, he got his own coffee.
Way to go, Dana. Once when I entered the meeting room I was immediately asked to make coffee. I was the only female… and the one in charge of the meeting. I wish I had your powers at that time.

Wonder what happens when they get roasted?
Well, this way they can experience the daily grind.
Human beans, nature’s way of saying, “Enough, already!” (Not to mention Dana’s.)

They don’t have designated coffee wenches? What kind of corporation is that?

Subtle dig; Kopi Luwak coffee beans are the ones that have been eaten by civets and then picked out of their feces.

Those VPs are lucky Mara Jade doesn’t work there. She’d force choke them and cut them down with her lightsaber. Actually, that would be a cool comic.

Next time make them the coffee beans that are partially digested by the elephants. Yes, there is an elephant poo coffee.

I have a friend who works in the produce dept of our local store. One day I asked him, What is the world’s best selling fruit?
He guessed bananas, apples.
The best selling fruit is the one that coffee beans come from.
He replied that he thought I didn’t know beans, turns out he was wrong.
