Coffee while in RTC
Is coffee available in the galley? I have heard yes and no and would like clarification.
23 year old college grad here who has a profound appreciation for it!

I'm more concerned that there will be too much! I was struggling with a caffeine addiction a few years back and have since given it completely up, even chocolate! But I am worried that we are to encouraged to consume caffeine especially Ricky Rockets, and Go-go Juice.
 <effects of caffeine.

Yes there is coffee, though I've heard it's decaf. I know it didn't do anything for me at all. My rdc's had a coffee maker in the fish bowl and I would make coffee for them in the morning and sneak a cup before they got in, after a month or so of drinking galley "coffee" I really noticed that first real cup, it was wonderful.

I didn't really start drinking it a lot until I got to college, my brother was at RTC back in 2010 and he said they drank it all the time in the galley since it was the only way to stay awake lol.
If we are allowed to have regular joe in the galley then this place won't be so bad! lol

I don't drink a ton of pop, I try and eat healthy these days so maybe a diet pop every now and then but mainly my go to is black coffee when I want that boost. I can do without it in RTC, I'll consume copious amounts of coffee in my Navy career I can guarantee that lol

If the galley coffee was decaffeinated, I never noticed… it was just really nasty. As ejrwelch mentioned above, there is Coke, Diet Coke, etc. in the galley. While your RDCs CAN NOT dictate what you eat or don't eat, they can make your life very difficult if they see you eating or drinking something they don't want you to be (whether it be sodas or desserts). .
