Drifting Away 2

   

Amy, my Miata, was down for the count so I was unable to drive her, I had to bring out Steve . . .my Bullitt.  The 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt handled the turns surprisingly well, but a driver mistake (spinout) in my last run bumped me from 3rd ALLLLLLL THE WAY DOWN to 8th place L.  There was literally only a separation of 2 or 3 tenths of a second from 1st to 5th . . .the average time from my last run (89 seconds due to the spin) knocked me almost out of the park to a near last place finish in class.   Here are the pictures from that event.” – Dave Adams

Proper Coffee Procedures

coffee-machine.jpg

We have had several occasions where an employee does not brew a new pot of coffee after finishing it off. So in efforts to reduce such problematic issues, I have included instructions below on how to brew a fresh pot of coffee with our machine.

Prep: In the cabinet below the coffee machine, take out 1 filter and 1 pre-measured package of caffenated or decaffenated coffee.

1. Pull Filter Holder out, place filter in, then pour pre-measured coffee into the filter. Push the filter holder back in.

2. Lift the top of the coffee canister. You will see a hole where the coffee will pour easily into the hole. Place the canister underneath where the coffee pours out.

3. Push the “Full Brew” button.

You don’t even need to add water!

Voila, you have successfully brewed a fresh pot of coffee. If you have any questions do not hesitate to stop by Human Resources.
