For everyone that works in a workshop or office is there alway's certain people who will purposely be thirsty all day and as soon as you make yourself a coffee they demand one as well Anybody else get these people or are you that guy? Fess up!

I bring my own coffee in from home, already made, so I don't have this problem

We take it in turns at work to make a round.

Titz Towers, North Notts

I've worked with people before who don't brew up, but will happily accept one when I did a drinks run.

I could have gotten irritated by it, but frankly I was just glad that they took a shit call that would have been mine if I'd not been stood at a machine with a list of who had sugar and who didn't.

CONISTON .Stoke Suburbia. THE MOORLANDS. BARMOUTH.

I am usually too busy to make a brew, so my colleagues usually make one for me, if I am not too busy then of course I will take my turn. Unless I am working with people who only ever make their own brew, then of course I can be as selfish and ignorent as them LOL .

It does make me laugh that there is always someone in the office who thinks they are way busier than anyone else so can't possibly stop to make the tea...if I'm feeling petty i won't ask if they want one. Oh how i am enjoying being back in the office

I purposefully force all my employees make me a cup of coffee at different points in the day. It teaches them respect and good discipline.

As I don't have any employees its a tactic that completely backfires on me

It's usually me that makes it. Only because nobody else's tends to be quite as good! Xx

We all make our own, thank goodness. I started drinking it black so I didn't have to get involved in milk fund/fridge cleaning politics.

I can't be arsed to wash some dirty pigs swil jar and then fill it for them.

And some mugs grow legs and walk out!

Needless to say I use my own cup and make it myself.

I know us mechanics and yard men alike, but wash you cup, the dirt does not add flavour the green is not a penicillin project. Just a sign of a lazy dirty knob.
