caffeine come down
I used to work for an IT company doing networks and stuff out on clients' sites. On one occasion, I was working in a serviced office where I was basically sent in and left to do what I needed to do, with the customer's parting words being "There's a drinks machine down the corridor, it's free so help yourself."

11am I'm 9 coffees in, bouncing off the walls, eyes out on stalks, and getting more work done faster than I've ever done before, managing to get a day's work done in half the time.

2pm I'm back at the office on the biggest comedown of my life, just sitting in a corner of the room knowing full well why I "look so sad".

My coworkers showed me so much support by laughing their tits off at me for the rest of the day.
