house rules.. .you drink the last cup... it wasn't too late for you - -what makes you the decider that it's too late for other people.. COme on already.. just make a fresh pot...
Ya see in the places I've worked.. it was unacceptable to drink the last cup of coffee from the pot, that generally meant it wasn't fresh.. that coffee would be dumped and afresh pot would be brewed and you get a nice tasty cup of fresh brewed coffee..
