50 cents per cup? That's gotta be with a profit even. Charging for coffee is not really acceptable to me. What I could see as fair is not providing unhealthy stuff like soda and snacks (because it creates unhealthy habits), but at least replace it with coffee, tea, fruits and nuts.
I'll clean my own desk, but make me clean the office and I'm out of there, unless it's a scrappy start-up in which case it's OK. I hope your company has many other redeeming qualities, cause they sure sound cheap!
- hga 13y agoIf you don't set out to make a profit, you're probably going to have a loss. So, unless the true cost of a cup of coffee is below 25 cents (I don't think it makes much sense to charge in between, although I could be wrong), it's not necessarily unreasonable (ignoring all issues if that's a change from free coffee).
- lmm 13y agoWouldn't the health damage from coffee be much bigger than from "soda and snacks"?
- yyqux 13y agoNo. There's mixed evidence about whether coffee is moderately good/moderately bad/neutral for you in sane quantities (i.e. a few cups a day). There's plenty of evidence that eating salty/sugary sodas and snacks is bad for you in similar quantities.
- reverius42 13y agoWhat makes you think there is health damage from coffee? All the evidence I've seen points to health benefits.
