Used to drink a full 12 cup pot a day, usually in the space of an hour or two. Got to drinking one E drink a shift (nights). Finally found that I had to have more and more or it just plain wasn't saving me from shift work problems.

I'm off the E drinks though I think if you are not imbibing as a regular diet item they are still a nice emergency kick. (Specifically ones like Rockstar 2x the 320mg one, the standard 80mg cans of most brands are stupid as it's basically a $2.50 mug of coffee.) I'll still have a cup or two halfway through the shift to boost me on into sunrise where I naturally wake up.



For all those that hate coffee, esp only tried once or twice, should try actually creme and sugaring it. (Not to 400 calorie starbucks levels)
