    So we can have minimum cleanup at the end of the shift. And because while decaf won’t hurt a regular person, caffeine can be debilitating or dangerous to those who can’t have it.

      I don’t really drink coffee at night. But that last sentence is such a bullshit excuse. By that logic, bars shouldn’t serve alcohol at any time. A person may be counting on the caffeine boost for a long drive home. So, by making the decision for the people who can’t have caffeine, you also made the decision for the people who should have it.

        It’s not an excuse. We’re lazy, we decided to only have one, we picked the one least likely to be an issue. You didn’t think all these industry secrets would be positives, did you?

          Right but the implication he made is that they keep only decaf at the end of the day because they want to keep only one pot of coffee going. So in that scenario, they would just give me caffeinated and not tell me rather than making a fresh pot of decaf.

        Don’t thank me. This is just how it’s done, since long before my two decades in the industry.
