Are three waters worth on tea.

[DTS]

It 5pm and I have just done my normal 5pm tea run.

As there are four tea drinkers in the office we generally all make a cuppa in the course of a day. However Ben has thrown a spanner in the works by starting to ask me for a "water:fury: " when I am doing my run.

I dont mind getting the others one as I always get them back but I object to getting Ben one as he never makes one in return.

Tonight was the straw that broker the camels back. He went upstairs about half an hour ago and made himself a water and no-one else a drink. Then on my 5pm run he asked me to get him another a water.

I refused as he never gets me one back. He has now claimed that he will make one tea for every three waters we as a tea drinking unit make him.

Now personally I am not happy with this as I think a drink is a drink. I sometimes make the girls cuppa soup which requires viagrous stirring but I dont claim this as twice as hard as a cuppa.

The girls in the team run seem happy to accept but I am tempted to hold out and push for a better deal.

how do you make water?

Step one ... consume 6 pints of lager :D

 

[Southend_Lady]

I say take the deal. Turning on the tap is far easier and you will appreciate it when he delivers you a nice tea every now and then! Maybe if you ask him to wear a little pinny it might make the deal more worthwhile.....

 

[BrettieAngell]

definitely getting mugged off!

 

[jstallan]

Surely it's a case of getting the 'drinks' in - everyone takes a turn to get 'em in regardless of it being water, tea or coffee...

 

[callan]

This is a nonsense Dave, hold out for a better deal.

 

[JoshC]

this seems to be a storm in a teacup if you ask me, try not to stir it up with Ben too much he might get annoyed

 

[The General]

Why is he being ghey and just drinking water!?

:confused:

 

[The Big Shrimp]

Don't be so petty!! If he gets you one in three, then so be it. You wouldn't want him to gob in your tea like my ex used to do to her boss. Her boss used to comment how nice the tea was, so beware. Accept nicely or you might get a Belgian tea!!

When I was working on the sea-front and the big boss man used to visit my mate made his tea with bog water!

Dave, sorry to jump on an obvious typo but Freud would have a field-day with that, mate. You might have meant vigorous but you were clearly thinking of Viagra.

I'm not sure the rest of us need to know about your 'viagrous stirrrings', whether it's harder than a cuppa, or whether the girls in the team run happily to accept it.

Actually, on previous form, yes we do.
Spill the beans.

:p

This might sound wrong on all counts and it probably is but..........we had a similar sort of problem although the guy was militant and quite abusive.

Our way of dealing with it was who ever made the tea....went up stairs, made the tea, got a bottle of water...went in to the toilet...pulled down out trousers and boxers, gently rubbed the opening of the bottle in he holiest of holes......

Then gave him his water............I am not saying this is right or correct but he ****.ing looks on our faces when we supped his water and loved it......Priceless.

I must say that this happened years ago when i was Young and Reckless...Queue for a song!!!

If he wants water , you should all drag him to the toilet push his head down the bog and flush it on his head. More than enough water for anyone. Do that a few times and he will be your bitch for life. Either that or just kill him.

Your avatar seems very apt today Ken?

 

[Firestorm]

Its the "getting the drinks" which is the issue here, not the content of the drink.
Alternatively every time you go, get him three plastic cups of water and tell him its his shout next time

 

[Mad Cyril]

how do you make water?

2 H2 + O2 = 2 H20

 

[Firestorm]

2 H2 + O2 = 2 H20

Thats the complicated way...Just heat up some Ice, or if time is not of the essence leave it to defrost.

 

[Mr. Benedict]

This is a blatant mug-off. You should refuse to bring him waters until he starts making his fair share of tea.

agreed... going solo in an office just isn't really an option, even if no one else wants a drink then you still have to ask
