As a proud coffee addict, I am please to see this Managesmarter.com article titled Coffee, Please. For the past 2 days, we’ve been dealing with blizzard conditions, thunder snow (seriously – there is such a thing), well over a foot of snow and closed interstate highways. Yet it is all quite tolerable as long as I have good coffee. I think these people share that perspective with me:
What would you give up to hold on to your morning cup of coffee?
* 42 percent would forgo AM radio, television or newspaper.
* One-fifth said they’d be willing to skip lunch.
* 12 percent said they’d trade three hours of sleep.
* 10 percent would give up brushing their teeth.
Ok, that last bullet point is quite disgusting – I hope none of the respondents act out on that survey response. I don’t know if this is surprising, but the survey found that men drink more coffee than women (1.6 cups per day for men to 1.2 for women). For me, nothing beats an extra large skim latte with 1 packet of raw sugar. And if I can have 2 of them in a day, all the better.
