What Brews with your Coffee? - Not for the Faint of Heart

As part of my cost-cutting measures (for the new bag love!), I have foregone my daily designer coffee (UCC, Starbucks) fix for the instant coffee mixes. We have to be practical and some sacrifices have to be made.

Luckily, my office has those instant coffee vending machines. Drop your coins, make your selection (black, with sugar, with cream) and the machine adds hot water and you get your instant coffee in seconds. With prices no higher than P12, these vending machines are a heaven sent for caffeine junkies needing a quick fix.

Last Saturday, I saw a sign tacked to the vending machine:

Want to see what the sign says? Read below. I must warn you - it may make you lose your appetite...

Last warning...


As you can deduce, I am now getting my caffeine fix from Coke Zero.

To the concessionaire, PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS!

Update - 10/2/08: The machine has been replaced! Yahoo!

@mrs aap (de facto) - you should have seen the guy who found the cockroach. he already started drinking the foam and didn't notice the cockroach immediately.

@kristine - the vending machine on our floor was broken! coke light had to be secured from a different floor.
