As someone who can't have caffeine but loves coffee, thank you.

I mean... you can simply ask for decaf. Those who want a caffeinated drink are scammed.

Right but the implication he made is that they keep only decaf at the end of the day because they want to keep only one pot of coffee going. So in that scenario, they would just give me caffeinated and not tell me rather than making a fresh pot of decaf.

Don't thank me. This is just how it's done, since long before my two decades in the industry.
