I would never bring food or drink to a job interview.

However, the debate has been distorted and a bit strawman'd. The original question was "would you bring an iced coffee to an interview for a Fortune 500 job?"

I'd agree that most interviewers probably wouldn't care but also most interviews are not for Fortune 500 companies.

    strawman'd

    Straw-manned. Apostrophes are going extinct from over-hunting and misuse.

    It's fine we'll just turn some hyphens sideways.

    You can’t just do that, there’s a lot of paperwork involved.

    Does the iced coffee do anything with the work involved? Then it should have no weight on the interview. I'm glad these fucking clowns are finally being called out for how stupid they are.
