    Use my own. Even when I stop at the coffee shop I try and take my own travel mug along for use.

    I use my own. We do have a couple of extras for guests and do not use disposable cups at all.

    We have our own. And it's pretty disgusting here, since we don't have a kitchen sink to wash them in and our building landlord doesn't like us washing dishes in the bathroom sink.

    Where I worked this summer, we all had our own mugs. I usually came in with a cafe au lait or a mocha in the morning in my travel cup and then used my mug in the day at work. I love my travel mug because it has a "clip" function that clips onto a basket or your handlebars!

    Currently, I started the coffee trend in the office with the grad students, being the first one to bring a pot in! We all have mugs and are pretty dang eco conscious!

    bring your own with some extra ones for visitors. I bring in a handmade one from Etsy. Wash it in the work sink and bring it home every few days for a hot cleaning.

    The cafeteria in our building uses paper disposables. I imagine you can use your own for the price of a (small?)...but I'm not sure. I never buy coffee there.
    There is a "coffee fund" on our floor with a few divisions. You pay into it for coffee, sugar, creamer, but you supply your own mug. Tea drinkers just toss a few nickels in a can for sugar, if that's their thing, I think. I think there are a few extra mugs kicking around for guests.
    I drink coffee at home, and when I bike commute, I bring a thermos with coffee and have a mug at my desk.

    We usually bring our own or use one out of the office's kitchen cupboard. If there is a special occasion, like a pot luck lunch or a bridal shower or baby shower, we'll use styrofoam then to minimize clean-up.

    Our company supplies paper ones but I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen someone use one. Most everyone has their own mug,

    Ditto...and now I make DH do the same. It doesn't come naturally for him, but he's a work in progress
