Happy National Coffee Day!
September 29th is National Coffee day, and many locations are offering free coffee! Want to know where to score a free cup of Joe?
- Participating 7-Eleven stores will be offering a free medium sized coffee, but this is only offered from 7 – 11 a.m
- Krispy Kreme will be offering a 12-ounce cup of House Blend Coffee. And the best part..they are offering this ALL day (well, while their supplies last)!
In honor of National Coffee day, Dunkin Donuts and Career Builder found out which professions needed coffee the most to get through the day! Is your profession one of them!?
According to the results, the professions with the highest proportions of workers stating they are less productive without coffee vary widely. Those who need coffee to get through the workday the most are:
1. Scientist/Lab Technician
2. Marketing/Public Relations Professional
3. Education Administrator
4. Editor/Writer

· Make it a double: Sixty-one percent (61%) of workers who drink coffee actually drink two cups or more each workday. Twenty-eight percent drink three cups or more.
· The Northeast needs coffee to perk up. Nearly half (46 percent) of workers claim they are less productive if they don’t drink coffee. Geographically, workers in the Northeast stated they are the most dependent on coffee, with 49 percent of people claiming they are less productive without coffee, compared to the West at 47 percent, and Midwest and South at 45 percent.
· Is coffee a boon to younger workers’ careers? Thirty-six percent (36%) of American workers aged 18 to 24 claimed that coffee has helped their career by providing an opportunity to network with other co-workers.
