Sometimes work isn't great but it's super nice that they do stuff like this randomly some mondays, especially when it's going to be a hot day after a nice weekend.

That's one thing I miss about working for a big company, I swear we had free food at least 3-4 times a week. Nowadays, MAYBE we'd get a free lunch if my boss was feeling generous, but most of the time it's self funded. Heck, I don't even get a desk phone and have to use my personal cell for business calls (thank god the pixel/project fi is really good with screening calls and blocking numbers). Even my Amazon account has been 80% work purchases the last couple months (but at least I get cashback )

Guess it's just that #startuplyfe

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. I'd rather have #startuplyfe and know how much I'm paying for my own food lol.

Very true, I think I got "reverse" sticker shock when I was going over the benefits contributions lol Made me feel like WTF?! Why was I paying so much more for the same coverage?!

Funny thing is my company still (mostly) functions like a startup. We've changed a bit since being acquired 2 years ago but still get free snacks/drinks/lunch 3 times a week, along with the occasional special coffee bars and happy hours (happen about once a month or two).

The SA3R, SA3R Gen II, and Super Advan Ver. 2

Version 2 is the newest (still discontinued). Seen those on a twin before as they are a popular drift wheel
