The coffee at work sucks. As in if they used dirty socks to filter it, it would taste better. But it is there, it is free and I drink a lot of it. And on the weekend I drink the good stuff I make in a French press.

The worst cup of coffee in the building is still better for you than soda.

Do they use an air pot for your work coffee? I've seen some disgusting air pots, that no coffee could ever taste good in.

That is what we use. Or something very similar to it. I run Vinegar through the machine once a quarter or so and I clean the film out of the pots as well.

Those warmers are the worst. We have two break rooms, one with burners and one with air pots. I walk to the further one with air pots.

Our free coffee is pretty decent. I have zero complaints.
