So much for RTO helping downtown business. As far as I can tell, only WMATA is getting more money due to RTO … and ironically that money comes from the feds.


As has been noted. You have a job so shut your pie hole and stop complaining. No one held a gun to your head to purchase a gross over priced coffee and scone.


You might need to see a therapist, you sound unhinged.


You need a new response. You are boring.

It’s where you are. I got the exact same thing this morning in the suburbs of DC for just under half of what you paid.

Try yaupon holly, it's the only Native North American caffeine producing plant. In addition to my 50lb coffee bag, I planted one of these. Just to cover my caffeine basis. It's actually pretty good. It has other related caffeine stimulants. It is related to Yerba Matte which is also a holly but tastes different.

And we all forget that coffee production has already been way down due to global warming. The price of coffee will continue to go up due to production problems and tariffs. Vanilla extract also now subject to tariffs, so flavored latte prices will soon skyrocket.

OP, as a PP said: take your own breakfast, coffee, lunch from home. Cheaper. And ask your office to get a coffee maker, and get your own coffee, tea bags etc.

Then my 20 year old staffer would say “I am so tired!” in response to Good Morning “how are you?”


Oh you were one of those pregnant ladies. You are so special!
