I think I need a sit down, I just had a major scare. Nearly as bad as the day I ran out of Mouton and had to drink the cheap stuff.
I went to make a coffee and on opening the jar for the grind I find it empty. No worry, I'll grind some more, but wait, the grinder is empty. To the bean jar - nicht, nothing, zip. Palpitations start as I reach for the freezer, with the open bag to fill the bean jar.
There.
Is.
No.
Bag.
I know there must be beans somewhere, I bought 10kg back in the summer. I can't have drunk it all? Can I? Eventually I track them down, Mrs Wife has taken them out to the store to save space in the kitchen. The day is saved, but by 'eck my pulse went up.

After a scare like that, you don't even need coffee. All that adrenaline pumping through your body should give you a bigger boost.

According to the latest research coffee does not provide any lift, in fact a coffee drinker requires coffee just to reach the same condition as none coffee drinkers(ok it does give you a lift but only because the lack of coffee has created a down)
so rather that perking you up its actually ruining your life
ps it also stinks

Sit down.
Have a gin.
Have another Gin.
Now make the coffee - your pulse rate should have dropped sufficiently.

Seeing all the recommendations, if you are in a hurry, make a couple of gin-coffees to gain time without suffering from strange side effects...

Heathen!

That is an unacceptable combination: not unlike the "Duck-Squid-and-Pineapple" dish designed by a "Masterchef - The Professionals" contestant last night...

Backup, backup, backup have you learned nothing? 
|

Come on! Cup, coffee machine, ground tin, grinder, bean tin, freezer bag AND off site - how much more back-up can I do?

Ok you've got a pretty good backup plan but somehow the restocking scheme broke down.

In these situations, I always apply the "What would Vilmos do?" test. Think about what the infamous Vilmos would say or do and act upon it. Being Vilmos this is very easy for me, but with practice anyone can do it.
Nagy Vilmos says: Elephant that! The perks are just that, add-ons, they do need make or break the deal. The ability to buy Gin, that makes or breaks the deal.
Simples.

Mmm, but is the Vilmos particular about his Gin, I mean selling the big issue you could buy "value" gin (just add diesel oil for a good cocktail)or a better paying job allows you to more selective (Gordons, Beefeater etc.)
