Donna has surprisingly high mechanical dexterity; she did grow up detailing and repairing pre-owned automobiles. And on any given day she's more liable to have more sympathy for a cracked engine block than a fucked up employee
The next step is negotiation, followed by outright threats, "percussive maintenance", "vivisection" and "eviceration", and finally "putrification".
Of course, preventative maintenance (cleaning, descaling, lubrication, filter changes, o-ring replacement (see what I did there?), and system checks) will help keep it from fucking up.
Donna may be a hot mess, but I can't help but like her because of moments like this one. I think if she weren't under constant stress she might mellow a bit, but who knows, maybe she thrives on adversity?

talking about the coffee maker, ya pervs
send it over to Donna's garage
It will appear in Cryptida very soon actually!
(Here is a panel of a robot-drone refilling it...)

author insight: the apology isn't from Donna and it isn't to the espresso machine
Her last voicemail/text?
also: if she had to care for a young child, she'd go from 28 years old to pushing 50 in the space of five years, she would not handle that well at all
Also, good choice on Bitches Brew ;)
