Geen bought coffee at Whole Foods.

I wouldn't even touch that [expletive] unless it was an emergency. I've driven 45 minutes round-trip just to get fresh roasted from a good roaster when I ran out on a Friday.
I'd be curious to know what kind of brewing system you use.

I use a nespresso machine for lattes for my fiance and I first thing in the morning because it takes 15 seconds; an ancient bialetti for espresso, and a pour-over system for drip coffee.

I have a lot of free time.

We bought one of those K things for the home. It's good.

At work I always leave the pot empty if I take the last cup. I like to leave just a tad, enough to where they will have to go and dump it.

Geen was a piker when it came to coffee.

We grind fresh beans every day and there's several commercial coffee and espresso machines to play with along with a couple of nice, large french presses. I don't work in an office.

I just hate when they leave just a little bit in the pot, and leave the burner on...to burn the rest of the coffee and stink up the office.

I don't mind if you drink the pot, I don't mind if you don't make a new pot, I mind if you leave a little and leave the burner on.

Just turn the damn burner off.

Just because. If you do it right you leave just enough to where they can't tell if it will fill the cup up or not, and they will go ahead and pour it only to find out it's only 1/3 full and it's burnt. That way not only do they have to make coffee, but they have to go dump and rinse the cup too, not to mention the moment of desperate hope they had that there was a cup left only to have that dream squashed.
