Okay, not necessarily transportation-related, but this cracked me up. We just got out of a staff meeting where the subject of the 'SRTC coffee fund' came up. Not everyone around here drinks coffee so only the six people who do pay into the fund. The fund pays for bags of coffee, usually purchased at Costco (where's it's less expensive), to be made in the office coffee maker.
Apparently the coffee drinkers went over budget last year. In 2010, they spent $208 on coffee! For six people! That explains why Ryan always gets me things the second I ask for them. And Jeff's nervous tic turns out to be coffee jitters. Who would've known...

$208 divided by 6 people, then divided by 225 work days, is 15.4 cents per day, per person. Cheaper than most other habits.

Yeah, in the scheme of things its a pretty benign habit. Especially for government workers ;) Our accountant isn't happy though because apparently we only had closer to $150 in the actual coffee fund for last year.
