SAMs happy-hour-GMT+1-daily-work-COFFEE BAR

[aeloy.]

G'morning from good ol' Germany, dear TESTers. Since it isn't all about beer and alcohol and due to the fact I'd like to make myself comfortable in this forum I am taking the liberty to open the first coffee bar here on testsquadron.com

Please feel free to order coffee, Cappuccino, Espresso or Latte Machiatto...did I mention, that "Latte" in german language is kind of one synonym for a mans erection? I always have some repressions ordering a Latte...anyway, for sure you can have sum Rum in your coffee which then is called "Pharisäer" which is a pretty nice northern German story, too; and tea. Don't like it pretty much except for stinging nettle tea.

Well, it is 9:30 a.m., the sun is shining at 0°C degrees and it seems to become a wonderful day - apart from the fact that I am sitting in the office and have some work to do...or to act as if. Most efficient weapon to let all think that you are busy: rushing through the corridors, best case with some paper work in your hands, and make a full stop at the coffee kitchen. Often you can catch up a colleague and talk about "major business issues" or anything of such crap. Only crux of this strategy: if you are *seriously* in a rush because of lots and lots to do, such colleagues who only want to have a coffee break by using you as an alibi are...at least in the wrong place at the wrong time.

So what is this all about? To put it as simplest: nothing. Just smalltalk, chit-chat and a thread for giving relief to a working day with you guy (because discord in the office...nah, I think that wouldn't work out for long, and nevertheless: I like my job, really!)

Coffee - anyone? ;)

Einen Latte bitte, dankeschön !

Nice to meet you btw.

Cheers aus Düsseldorf!

Cheers from Hamburg :grinning::thumbsup:

Wow, you quoted my very first post of this thread. Four months to go and it'll be the 2nd birthday of it :heart_eyes_cat:
Have a nice afternoon. May the caffeine be with you :wink:

...thus you are a developer at CIG?? I knew it, ha! :smile:

Well, at CIG you only get to blow up pixels. If I mess up, then I can blow up some expensive equipment :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

 

[marcsand2]

Damn, the expensive equipment didn't blow up :pensive: I even complained to my boss how the hell he is expecting me to finish the job at the deadline, everything that could go wrong went wrong... well, except blowing up the expensive equipment. I got one day extra but still 2 months of working hours left until Tuesday :joy:

 

[AstroSam]

Damn brother, not good news that is. Here, have a coffee with some extra rotation speed ;)

@ all - its Friday, yay!! :D

 

[Wolfy]

I'm gonna sit here on my Herald cleaning my AR-15 and M9 and drinking my nice Black Rifle Coffee Company Beyond Black roast. Nothing better. Particularly because they never have decent coffee in the field.

 

[AstroSam]

After weeks in the fields of nowhere, when its cold, full of mud and rain, everything which is hot and dark in your aluminum cup tastes like wonderful coffee. :grimacing:

Aye, true enough. If the budget can afford the cup, that is.

 

[AstroSam]

Woa, there is even no money anymore for those cups??

Wouldn't know, didn't get issued one during my last 2 week exercise. Maybe active duty deployments get lucky enough. I do have a tactical spork though :D

Thanks a lot, I really can use that coffee, no coffee in the plant :disappointed:

@AstroSam !
I made it back from Basic Training. I'm now qualified to be told what to do, as quickly as possible, with someone holding my hand. I need COFFEE, Sam! I won't be able to do things with adult supervision without coffee...

Quite frankly, I don't want to keep calm. My favorite mug fell off my truck this morning and broke. At least the rain got my PT Test cancelled.

Good Morning - Time for nice cup of COFFEE!

I showed up for work today and there was nobody there. Apparently it's a federal holiday!

Erm...so what are you doing then at work?

I've read you absolved your basic training...again? Somehow I remember that you've done that a couple of months ago. So, how many basic trainings are there you have to go through...?
And where's @Blind Owl ? Off for some (basic) training, too?
