there are no paper cups at the water cooler. The #1 market in the world. No cups.
Maybe Ernie will fork over some cash to buy cups.
What's next? Bring your own toilet paper? |

In the mid 80's we had coffee and orange juice in the newsroom. Then came the budget cuts, first the oj went, then the styrofoam cups (we were given promo mugs from kmart), then the n.d. told us they had to lose the coffee in order to keep a desk assistant, small price to pay, then we got a coffee maker in the newsroom but the anchors never seemed to pay so people decided they'd fend for themselves. I can't forget what a big deal we all thought it was to lose the coffee, 20 years has helpd put things the their proper perspective.
