Coffee......another sad co-worker story and fiasco brought to you by El Heffe. Suffice it to say, we've had a bunch of changes in coffee suppliers. Lots of rumors abound as to how it came about, but it was vile.
It came to be known as "Co-Worker" coffee. It looked like colored water, and didn't taste that good. I've given up on UAL coffee, and don't know the current state, but many pilots will walk miles for a Pete's or Starbucks before they will consume what we have on the planes.
I've also heard it said by many of our premium customers, the camel that broke the back of their loyalty, was the coffee.....
