Why don't they just ask the office manager to buy the better coffee

I make requests to "Earl" the office manager all time.

"Hey Earl, there are never any bananas on Monday morning" or "Hey Earl, can you get these KIND nut bars". Earl always comes through. Just be nice to your Earl and they will always hook you up.
