Cups

Does anyone else experience the great CUP issues in work that we do?
There are signs up and dictation from on high re these cups. We have gone through 6 cup changes since I have worked here. Most of these
in the last two years. First rule was no cups of tea at the desk – but our kitchen does not
hold the 300 staff we have so we need to drink beverages somewhere. We have had several changes of metal travel cups – apparently we need lids on our cups. Anyway after many tries with cling film over cups and the like the latest incarnation is a small metal mug with a plastic lid on it. We need to wash these and look after them ourselves – fine whatever about
the washing but why metal cups? I am not camping at work.
Mind you – the cup issues are nothing compared to the parking problems.

This is a cup issue of another kind (we are allowed drink at our desks) but our cups suffer terribly from tea residue. It looks yucky.

Sounds like a load of pants. This place only has about 20 people so no such troubles. Stay back some night and kidnap all the metal cups. Or get a permanent marker and draw willys on every one of them.
