Today, I'm an intern working in a company's reception area, which happens to have a coffee dispenser. As I'm the new girl, every client getting coffee wants to buy me one. I'm too polite to say no. It's 10:26 AM, and I'm on cup #17. FML

Keep letting them buy you coffee. Once you have cup #100 you get superspeed and can save everyone in case there is a fire.

Or just be honest and say I've already had coffee but your offer is very kind thank you

Just keep an empty giant cup on your desk and point to it while saying "I already have a coffee, but thank you very much."

Declining politely is easy. YDI.

Accept the first offer & nurse it all day. Then the others will see that you already have coffee & won't offer.

Say no thank you or take a sup then pour it out

You should make a statue out of all the coffee cups you have had and then show them. Not only will they not buy you coffee, but they'll try and buy your work of art from you

haha and it's France so it's all expressos, can't pretend to "nurse" it as it's just 2 sips each.. tell them you're quitting smoking and can´t have coffee for fear of relapse ;)

Am I the only one that has a vision of her running around and talking like Twitchy the squirrel from Hoodwinked?

Trying say No. It doesn't hurt. You can be honest and just say 'if I accept coffee at this rate, I will hit 50 in 5 more cups!' And smile. ?
