Coffee

I have found that many meetings occur over coffee.  The problem is that I do not drink coffee.  I have been trying to set up meetings with various people as I am continuing the job search, and most people suggest going to get coffee and chat.  This is great because it provides a central location for us to meet, but I always feel obligated to order something.  I will drink hot coco wherever I go, and while I don’t drink it normally, I can stand the taste, while I cannot stand the taste of coffee.  So for every one of these meetings I spend approximately $3 to get advice or go over my resume.  I guess it is pretty cheap for the (hopefully) valuable information I am garnering from these people, and if it leads to a job, I will have a guaranteed source of income for a while.  I hope that these meetings pay off and that I can one day return the favor to a frantic college student like me.
