ER Coffee: make it first!

First thing you should do when you arrive to volunteer in the ER is make good, strong coffee for the staff that is just starting their shift. They need it and dearly appreciate it.
  Ask if they have a bag of special brew they want made. Nurses are picky and always have a secret stash of "Good Stuff" hidden in a cabinet. Ask around...there is at least 2 nurses per shift that are coffee freaks and only drink good stuff. In a paper towel, mark down the time "Brewed fresh @ 1830, Fri, Godiva Blend". Everyone will love it and snatch it up in minutes...makes them really happy and you score major bonus points as a volunteer.
Good coffee at beginning of there shift makes people really happy.....simple pleasures.

  I recently brought in some good tea and made fresh brewed iced tea + splenda and it was a huge hit. They drank 2 gallons in 10 minutes...now that is fast...wow!
