More than 15 years ago, I fairly frequently travelled back and forth between Boston and San Jose on the “Nerd Bird." Over time, I had established the habit of staying on east coast time, even when out in California. Visiting San Jose, during the intense effort of a new hardware bring up, the team stayed and worked through a weekend. Sunday morning, I woke up, as usual, about 4 or 5 AM local time. Not having anything to do in the hotel room, I decided to go into the office and get a head start on the days efforts. I arrived in the large, dark and apparently empty, office building at something like 5 AM that Sunday morning. With the lights out, no one in sight, I found that the coffee machine was in the middle of brewing a fresh pot of coffee. It was a very eerie thing. Eventually, I ran across a guy from another team that had come into the office early that morning and needed his cup of “Joe.”</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class="">Eventually I had to give up on all caffeinated beverages, as I often didn’t drink them during weekends and would then end up with a splitting headache on Sunday.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">-Mike Willegal</div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Jul 21, 2020, at 1:08 PM, Marc Weber <<a href="mailto:marc@webhistory.org" class="">marc@webhistory.org</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div dir="auto" class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;"><div dir="auto" class="" style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;">Mugs are also well represented in our collection at the Computer History Museum… you’ll get 470 hits when you search on <a href="https://www.computerhistory.org/collections/search/?s=mug&f=physicalobject" class="" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;">“mug” in our online catalog</a>.

In some parts of the IT ecosystem, especially among those who work odd hours, such as programmers, computer operators, and vendor field engineers. I am studying the corporate ephemera of this industry and its cultural attachments, such as coffee cups and what they tell us about computing. Do any of you have any information, ephemera, or sources and citations on this specific issue of coffee and computing? I can get many industry folks, such as IBM retirees, to wax eloquently on the subject in their private FB accounts, but that is not enough. Corporate culture is tough to study. Thanks in advance for your help.
