    Two cups in the morning and that's it.
    I consume huge quantities of iced tea the rest of the day

    Ew. Iced tea in NYC? That just can't be good. :)

    Unless it's homemade, of course.

    I love taking a good grump at work.

    I guess it depends on your situation at work. My first paper had a bathroom on the first floor where the day shift worked. No one was down there at night, but I still refused to use it. Lots of others took advantage, though. Then again, I lived like 10 minutes away, so if it came down to it, I just went home.

    The other bathroom there was right smack in the newsroom, about 5 feet from the nearest desk. No one grumped in there except for one of my old SEs, who would do so and then leave the door wide open after. Those nights were awesome!

    My shop got rid of the free coffee, so now I have to bring my own and take 10 minutes out of my shift to brew a pot. Usually fill a travel mug and have 2-3 cups a night.

    Used to get coffee all the time from either Tim Hortons or the local gas station with Green Mountain Coffee...That went the way of newspapers once I lost my parttime job. Even at home, I make coffee using a press.

    Every now and then I'll get a latte or an iced coffee somewhere. But that's about it. I have a coffee maker at home and I can't remember the last time I used it. It's been at least two years. A couple of my exes were hardcore coffee drinkers. I would partake in the shared cup of joe first thing in the morning.

    I'm in the minority, but I can't stand the stuff. Don't like the bitter taste or the idea of scalding my tongue at 8 a.m.

    Coke Zero or Red Bull, please.
