Why are corporations so full of yes men?

It’s because the managers always provide a coffee pot. Think maybe they knew about this before we did?

Coffee makes us say ‘yes’.

If you want to bring someone around to your way of thinking you should make sure they’ve got a cup of coffee in their hand, according to research showing that caffeine makes us more open to persuasion.

The Australian researchers say a caffeine hit improves our ability to process information and increases the extent to which we listen to and take on board a persuasive message.

Excellent. So caffeine doesn’t just make the day bearable, but it has mind control powers as well. That’s just awesome.
