Just to note: coffee doesn’t actually dehydrate you like booze does. It’s simply a diuretic and makes you want to pee.
I think a cup of coffee is net hydration? Paired with a cup of water it definitely is.
Oh yeah the water will outpace the diuretic effects in most liquids. But that doesn't detract from the effects on your body after the caffeine wears out, and waking up in the morning just being dehydrated and that making you feel like shit.
And what I am saying is if you are are waking up dehydrated from coffee you are fucking up elsewhere in your diet or lifestyle.
I drink two cups of coffee a day on average and I can assure you, as an obnoxiously chipper morning person I do not wake up dehydrated.
Oh I was saying people are waking up dehydrated because most people usually do. That's why your pee when you first wake up is usually more yellow than usual (or dark yellow I won't judge if you bad about hydrating).
not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

As a barista, the puddles of coffee at the bottom of the trash made me want to throttle every person that poured their coffee out rather than ask for room.
Current memories of regulars:
200 degree soy latte & 220 Degree soy latte
20 oz decaffee
Shot in the dark
Every black person that came in asking for extra caramel sauce at the end of the bar, and thinking to myself, "I grew up in this neighborhood. I either know your family, your pastor, your imam, or your teachers. So I can have someone you respect slap you for being a cheapskate."
But the biggest thing was people who got the hookup for for some water and syrup and getting charged a generic tea then running into the issue at a different location (us) where we would not know about this hookup as we didn't do that, and the fact that our tills lost the ability to charge for generic teas.
Then there were all the people in the summer coming up asking for water for free, trying to bypass all the paying customers in line. Then they would have the nerve to ask for the largest sizes we had, for free, thereby depleting our stock of those sizes for people who wanted to pay $6 for a frozen beverage.
Then there were the dumbfucks who grabbed whatever drink was on the bar when they knew they ordered an 8oz drink and now dumbfuck has caused me to give out a free drink coupon to that customer and start her drink from scratch.
So apparently we have a monthly company newsletter that I've been reflexively clearing out of my inbox without reading it. And that newsletter includes an employee profile. And after eight years of trying very very hard to avoid being noticed by anyone who isn't my immediate supervisor, I've been selected as the spotlighted employee for the July edition.
Question #4 that I am being asked is "What is the strangest experience you have had with a customer?" Here are the top contenders:
1.) The time a famous local author kept me on the phone for six hours total over a three day period because he was upset that we had changed the menu for our cable TV so that a star now showed next to the name of a program if it was the first time it was being broadcast.
2.) The time I got a call where someone was growling such vicious sounding threats that I hung up in a panic, then made my boss listen to the recording. We were about ten seconds away from calling the cops, when he noticed the incoming phone number belonged to one of our field techs, who had accidentally butt-dialed us while performing a particularly difficult install in a crawlspace full of "knee-deep goddamn pigeon carcasses".
3.) The time a guy who I once One-Hit KO'd in a Kentucky Fried Chicken tried to sue our company for refusing to turn his cable TV back on when he was only three months late on payment, promising that he would gain ownership of our company, rename it after himself, and that he would demote the entire residential customer service team to "licking up puddles in the parking lot."

Number three by a country mile.
I mean, yeah, that is easily the most bizarre sequence of events I've been personally involved with, and that guy kept popping up in my life over a 12 year span like he was a recurring villain in the sitcom of my life... but holy shit, it's a whole lot of story to tell. I'm kind of on the fence about participating at all, not sure I want to pick the one that requires a full-scale novelization.

I switch between last minute and take a full week. Keeps my labmates on their toes, they never know if it's going to be a 1 hour meeting or a 3 hour grind.
Finally get my review back from my prof and...it's really really obvious he in these literal months of "working on it" has not made it past about halfway. It's not that long. I just don't even know what we are doing here at this point. I guess just make the changes I can, ref it out, hope it gets submitted/accepted and...then read by all of two people. Which I guess is what I expected anyway.

I put a security deposit down on an apartment in the Magnolia neighborhood of Seattle today. Currently, we live right off downtown in a shit studio with shit water pressure, can't have pets, laundry is $2 each to wash and dry and is five stories down in the basement, appliances are shit, cabinets are shit, neighbors are shit, we're surrounded by hospitals and drug treatment clinics, plus this is a party neighborhood popular with the more aggressive homeless addict population. People are always sneaking into the building. We've had to deal with squatters, meth fiends breaking into the building (laundry room door still isn't repaired and doesn't lock), you name it.
Hopeful new place (just gotta wait for our application to get approved) is in a quiet mostly residential area that hasn't been taken over by gentrification yet. Off the beaten path, so to say. We can get a dog, it has massively better appliances including built in dishwasher and microwave with a glasstop stove, in unit washer/dryer, they don't care if I put my AC unit in, has an actual full bath with a tub (with great pressure!, unlike our dinky shower stall with a toilet right next to it like we have now) and it's only a mile down the road from a huge public park that has woodland trails and a lighthouse.
Fingers crossed, might get to live like a real person again.
Work related, tomorrow starts a nine-day stretch. Blech.
