Long ago, my previous company ditched paper cups in favor of ceramic cups for coffee. You should have seen the disruption in everyone's workflow.

Since you have to actually wash the cup after you drink from it, there were long queues before the kitchen sinks.

People started reducing the number of cups of coffee they drink :) and instead started dozing off (not joking)

People started congregating around the pantry or kitchen because if you wander off with your cup around the office, you still have to come back to kitchen to clean it up.

I used to wonder the whole 'go green' thing at the time because anyway the paper cups are going to be recycled :)

Why not just use a cup more than once during the day without washing? I go through at least 7 cups of coffee a day in a single mug; only washing that's done is just before the first of the day.
