418 I'm a teapot

[–] [email protected] 37 points 3 weeks ago

Then, when no one was going to the breakroom (knowing the pot was empty), the pot was never filled again.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

Hence error 418.

Laziness is the mother of invention.

necessity is the mother, laziness is the father.

"Whoever takes the last cup brews a new pot." I think that's already mentioned in the Bible as the "golden rule".

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

Iirc that rule was followed here.... The cam was to let you know when the fresh pot was ready?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

I thought the golden rule is "it's OK if it's in a threeway".

And "whoever pours just enough into their cup to leave 1/10th a cup in the pot to avoid making more is the office asshole, because lo, he is also the one eating other people's food"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago

my sibling does this to avoid having to turn off/rinse the coffee maker. they'll make just enough coffee for like one and a third of a cup, then be like "hey you can take the rest of that coffee". i look at it and it's not nearly enough for even a small cup. i just leave it there, on, lol

That's the damned truth

Forever replacing the job of the intern.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 weeks ago

Shouldn't the intern see an empty pot and then go make more?

Seems like it would save the intern trips to check out whether it needs filled.
