Our office manager Janey has just had a new water cooler installed. We've had a traditional one for years, the regular sort with the big plastic bottle on top. As with most businesses the well being of our team is important to us and we all know that drinking water is essential element of a healthy lifestyle. The water cooler really seemed to get people's water consumption up and fizzy pop and coffee consumption down, so it made sense.
However, shipping great big bottles of water around the countryside in lorries did seem a bit wasteful to us (even though they reuse the bottles).
Our new water cooler runs off mains water, it just treats and cools it with no need to truck bottles all over the countryside.
I guess we could have just reverted to drinking from the tap, but those days I fear are long gone.
Anyway, well done Janey
