    I don’t understand why you would have a water cooler in the first place.

    just put a fountain in?

    edit: my regionality is showing. I assumed it wasn’t plumbed in.

      It pulled water from the tap instead of a bottle and had a filter, plus it had hot and cold options. It was a nice water cooler, but I wouldn’t have called it a luxury and never thought it could cost $75 a week.

        ah okay, so it was plumbed in. carry on

        around here I’ve only ever referred to “cooler” as something that uses a tank.

        now, even a water dispenser that doesn’t have a fountain is still called a fountain… unless it actually has a chiller and no fountain mouth piece, in which case it’s back to a cooler, sometimes
