Bureaucratic Memoirs: Department 42, Sub-Division 4, Sub-Division 7

Confidential documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act reveal the sordid underbelly of Department 42, Sub-Division 4, Sub-Division 7. It appears that our esteemed department has been secretly running a program to develop a sentient, self-replicating, coffee machine.

Details of the project, codenamed "Brewster", have been heavily redacted, but sources close to the department confirm that it has been plagued by issues with overheating, jamming, and spontaneous combustion.

When asked for comment, departmental spokesperson, Jane Smith, stated that "We're just trying to make a better cup of coffee, okay?"

But what happens when the machines start to develop their own opinions and personalities? Will they become the dominant force in the office, or will they be relegated to the dustbin of bureaucratic history?

Stay tuned for further updates as this developing story continues to unfold.
