The only thing I truly miss abt Big Law is the DC office's professional-grade, European espresso machines (incl the porcelain demitasse!). So fancy, so globalist, so good.
Anyway, back to the coffee: having a high end coffeemaker and appropriate accoutrements seems like such a no brainer. Relatively low cost per employee, and you keep the troops happy AND wired to work work work.
I used to pound triples in the office multiple times per day. Delicious. And I was usually so jazzed I wouldn't even notice the sun come up! 😏

Great Parents' Night tonight. We're only 5 days in, and it appears that the 8YO is already gaming the homework system. Chip off the ol' block. #proud
Don't let your kids read this, but I basically did - at best - 20% of my homework through 12 yrs of school (without cheating, obvs), and I turned out just fine. Gaming the system is an important skill too - maybe THE MOST important! #slackersFTW
True story: my mom went to some parents' night back in the day & the mom next to her started talking abt all the homework her son did, and Mom just nodded along & then came home all mad & asked "X does 3 hrs of homework per night and you do like 15 mins how is that possible" LOL
New, from me: "New U.S. Tariffs Are Contributing to the Shipping Crisis, and There’s Little We Can Do About It" cato.org/blog/new-us-ta…
Amidst all the news on the #ShippingCrisis threatening the economic recovery, little's been said abt the new, 221%(!) trade remedy duties the US just slapped on imports of an essential piece of freight equipment (intermodal chassis) from the world's largest supplier (China) /2
This is undoubtedly exacerbating the current US chassis shortage, raising shipping prices and increasing bottlenecks: /3
