So it came. The Rancillo Silvia made its appearance in the office today to great fanfare and rejoicing. All the engineers crowded around it and tried it out and everyone made the "How many engineers does it take to make an espresso" joke. When I say that everyone made that joke, I literally mean that
every single person who walked into the break room made that joke.
After everyone got over their bad selves, it became obvious that neither
the Rocky grinder nor the fancy-ass coffee had arrived. My stash of
espresso was "volunteered" to serve as the office coffee until the real
coffee arrived.
My office coffee is, shall we say, not the best. It's tasty, yes, but
it isn't made for a high quality machine. Consequently, the coffee that
the Silvia made was bitter and insanely strong. And by "insanely
strong" I mean that people were bouncing off walls and unable to focus.

Meanwhile, Desktop Espresso sat dismantled in a corner of my cubicle.
It reminded me of that scene in Empire Strikes Back where
they're in the cloud city and they've just been taken prisoner by the Empire and
Chewbacca finds C3P0 dismatled. My Desktop Espresso reminds me of Headless C3P0. That's very sad. But I don't think Desktop Espresso has anything to worry about: There is so much clean-up needed for the Silvia that I'm pretty sure that laziness will prevent the engineers from using it.
Oh, no - dismantled C3P0 - that guts me every single time. You're killing me.

ReplyDeleteIts as if you had a great grasp on the subject matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you should think about this from more than one angle. 相睇活動
