Waiting on Coffee

During a week-long training out of town at a cubical farm, I had mixed my cream and sugar in my coffee cup and waiting on the coffee maker to finish dripping into the coffee pot.

No one was in the room at the time, but I was standing directly in front of the coffee maker when I noticed coffee splattering just off the side of the pot and onto the counter. At first glance, it looked just like coffee was dripping from around the basket (where the grounds are) and landing on the edge of the maker and creating a mess.

Having the eyesight of a small single-celled amoeba, I started to move in to see where the leak was…. Just about the time I found that it was actually spilled coffee boiling on the burner under the pot, and only being about 8 inches from the coffee pot, a huge hand goes by my face and grabs the coffee pot and begins to pour the life-nectar into a cup.

I admit I am not as observant and Adrian Monk, but I do know that the guy had to have walked directly into the large room, and directly to the coffee pot without giving me a chance to move out of the way.

so my question is, How important is coffee to you? It was quite obvious that I was looking at something that I found interesting, and I could assume possibly important about said coffee. Just how rude do you have to be to walk directly in front of someone for coffee?

I just don’t understand.
