EPIC, UE4 making and coffee

We have 2 full-sized coffee machines and kureg coffee makers in more conference rooms. Also, the cold drink fridge is full of Starbucks iced coffee, espresso double shots and those shake-up lattes. Plus there are energy drinks over various types (Very artificial NOS and “natural” Mati, but no Redbull :frowning: ). There is a Starbucks within walking distance of the office as well as various cafes (I like the Crepe Cafe).

However, despite all of that, some people at Epic complain that we never have coffee that is up to their standards.

Me? I just enjoy all the free caffeine.

Do you know how many employees are at that branch of Epic Games?

It’s the HQ. At least a couple hundred.

At my workplace, in addition to two fridges filled to the brim with cold caffeine, we have two full sized free-standing Starbucks machines. You can select your style of coffee, the type of beans, etc… and we have the guys with the Aeropress or Chemex standing just over yonder, laughing at the peons and their substandard coffee :rolleyes:

random fact: back in the 17h~18h century… Coffee was a drug banned from many civilizations :rolleyes:
Many still nowadays put caffeine at same injury level of c.ocaine.

I don’t drink it because A. It’s not that good, B. It’s clear to me that it can be addicting based on those who need their cup of coffee every 30 minutes. C. Regardless of whether or not it is healthy, why would I risk it not being healthy if I don’t even really like it?

I wonder if caffinated tea is as bad as coffee?

jeje yerba mate… I drink mate all days, my country and I think Uruguay too, drinks Yerba mate more than anything else. It’s like a local identity here and it is involved in a lot of our culture.

South (very to the south) in Brazil there’s a huge german community. They drink that on daily basis as well.

I stopped drinking coffee for around 5 years, but again I was surrounded by old friends and every morning is coffee coffee everywhere; I ended up drinking again :s
making your own breakfast separate from the others in some cultures is telling ppl that “-I don’t like YOU and your shiity drinks”, so I dont do that. :wink:
But yeah, I could live without coffee, not a big fan.

No idea. I didn’t even know it exists haha
