Oh, it goes more like this, if my experience is anything to go by:

Someone: "Wow, is that a Makita COFFEE MAKER??? I had no idea they did those!"

Me: "Sure is. The coffee admittedly isn't great, but it works off the same accus as everything else Makita, so..."

Someone: "Wow, that IS really cool. Any chance of you firing up a brew? I'd love to see it do its thing. What do you do, by the way?"

Me: "Sure thing. Oh, I do offshore handling equipment - this coffee maker spent a year in my tool crate and has brewed the morning cuppa on -pfff- something like thirty vessels all over the world. Cream? Sugar?"
