Oh you want me to learn about ALL the different types of coffee? It all tastes the same to me.
3. You smell like coffee ALL the time
Well, coffee and a mixture of sour milk.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
4. You least favourite phrase is, “THAT’S SO EXPENSIVE”
The menu is RIGHT THERE, and I don’t set the prices.
5. When this pops up on the machine, it’s time to sigh
6. You secretly sneer at people who try to order fancy things but end up looking like a fool
Wet cappuccino = a latte, deal with it.

8. Wearing all-black converse was about as original as you could get
Even despite warnings you could scald yourself.

You need coffee before you to make the coffee…
11. There’s one customer you like the best
12. Sneaking your mates free drinks is pretty much a day-to-day occurrence

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE.

Oh so THE WHOLE OFFICE wants coffee.
16. You sip coffee all day so are up to high doh when you go home in the evening
17. Making the fancy cold drinks when it’s busy is the WORST
The Spanish students are coming!
