    I have been punked again.
    This time they took my cups.
    As you can see in the picture, there are some "It's A Grind" coffee cups on the shelf behind me. It used to be filled with Starbucks cups of all sizes (nicely organized, I might add). I was about to be done with it, which was when I was planning on taking a picture, but alas, they are gone.
    And someone in my office is holding them for ransom. I do not know who, they haven't made any demands yet...
    They also wrote on the back of my official SB chalkboard and left an "It's A Grind" hat in my office.

    I want my cups back!

    Punked again

  • ROFLOL!

  • Beautiful.

  • Wow, those terms are a little extreme. Maybe if they bought YOU the coffee and you had to drink it, that'd be one thing...

  • I KNOW!!

  • You know, unless you *really* drive out of the way, it's pretty much impossible to get to "It's a Grind" without driving past Starbucks. I think those demands are completely unreasonable. I mean, with gas prices these days...

  • Love the hat! Sounds like a fun place to work, but I do think that it is your turn to to be the punker not he punkee.Take off that silly hat, put on your thinking cap (as your mom use to say) and figure out how to Punk someone! Do us proud!

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm not telling you where your cups are.

  • Seriously....I haven't been out there in a while, but isn't It's A Grind in the old 7-11 lot? And isn't Starbucks still right across from it, in the Stater Bros lot, right between it and school?? This is a very flawed plan....going around the block is silly and you'd be thinking of Starbucks the whole way!!!! Boy, good luck with this. :)

  • I'm not doing it, people. I have principles. They'll never break me.

  • Oh, if you only knew what was to come...

  • You may steal my possessions, but you'll never steal my soul. I have principles!!
    Do what you may--but I will not break. ALL HAIL STARBUCKS!!!!!!!!

    Actually, you like Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf these days. So you're already off the wagon.

  • only the ice-blendeds...oh, yum...caramel ice-blended...but, still, nothing tops Starbucks!

  • Okay, just when exactly are you working in your office.  You guys have entirely too much fun.  How good to know that there are still some businesses that allow that type of freedom.  Enjoy and just go get some cookies.  You'll feel better.

  • wow, its a good thing the collection on your desk was coffee cups and not the Lord of the Rings characters!  I would have to kick in on the ransom!
