What colour is your mug?
The company that operates the drink vending machines at work are carrying out a survey today. Apparently the key question is not the quality of the drinks, but rather the colour of the plastic cups that it dispenses the drinks in...
I'm not a fan of coffee, and the tea is undrinkable, so I just use the machine to re-fill my bottle with water. I'd prefer it to dispense drinks that are drinkable. As to the colour of the cups, I think people should use their own mugs, and stop wasting plastic.
There are days that I worry that I've drifed into parallel universe... perhaps I should make sure I've always got a towel in the bag I bring to work, just in case...

Plus, if I loiter around the vending machine, a marketing drone may ask me what colour of plastic cup I think is best. I know that their CPU won't be able to cope with my answer!
