I think the person is more of a deciding factor than the work. I drink a minimum of 6 a day and don't notice much, but my partner can't drink a sip of coffee without projectile vomiting and can only manage a can of monster over the course of a full day.

Coffee does fuck all to me, I don't know if it's the ADHD or years of drinking too much pop or something.

Coffee has one superpower. If you're enjoying a cup of coffee, people are less likely to ask you for things.

Well tell them to stop mixing their Ayahuasca in with their morning coffee.

I used to but boy teams meetings used to be really hard with you were going into another realm

Your partner might have something else going on. Have they mentioned it to a doctor?

It's a psychosomatic reaction due to an experience they had as a toddler. They also really hate the taste and smell of it generally. So they aren't really missing out.
