Worked for an American Fortune 100 company that had a community funded coffee station when I started. Got a tiny styrofoam cup of Folgers coffee for $0.25. Eventually they had stations that provided free coffee, but that was years later.
I worked for an Utah based company that opened a Boston office. There was a holy war over our office being allowed to use our snack budget on a coffee machine and beans. Mormons vs Bostonians, the culture war nobody expected
Where I work used to have free coffee and tea until a newspaper made a story about how we were lazy and spent all our time drinking coffee and wasting money so my organization fully removed complimentary beverages ever since. The floor warden walks around with a bucket collecting change and donations to get new hand soap in the kitchen. It’s so annoying.
From tiny companies of five people, to huge companies of five hundred thousand, I have never worked in an office where you couldn’t get a brew.
But then, I am British. Take the tea away and it’s riots (or at the least some quiet complaining)

Does this company start with I and end with BM
It does not!
Nah, the NSA takes very good care of its employees. They get free everything.
I wish people would drink more tea and less lead around here.
As someone who works in an electronics plant, there are definitely days where I just crave a nice refreshing slurp from the leaded solder pot.
As it should be. If Intel is spending that much, that better be Yorkshire Gold.

That’s such garbage!
