That reads like the makings of intense civil unrest for China.

On a lighter note --- that seems kind of backwards doesn't it? You see people take cups without lids and have their coffee. So why wouldn't the lids outnumber the cups. (Assuming bought in bulk as a set of same number) That's an odd shortage.

Maybe it is like hot dogs and buns where they dont come in the the same amount.

If they cared about covid they wouldn't be getting their coffee in the communal coffee area they would make it in their room in the full coffeemaker thst is provided in every room.

Maybe its something like that come to think of it. Not really covid or anything in particular -- but they stick together and they discard the extra because kind of suspecting they shouldn't leave something they touched for the next one.

Right. But even pre-covid, and for just normal "germs" concerns, can see the extra being discarded. That's probably it.

I know I have done that the last 18 months at soda fountains because I am not allowed to bring my reusable cup right now.

Cups and lids are sold separately by manufacturers so if the lids have been out of stock for a while with cups still being available then eventually you have cups and no lids.

Ironically I've come across a number of hotels that stopped providing coffee makers in the room BECAUSE of covid. So the only options for coffee are in the communal areas. Pisses me off to no end how common it's gotten to stay places without coffee makers in the rooms.
