Don’t get me wrong, love the writeup… Ancient history now but perhaps less so in 2006.

But if I took pictures of my employers’ lab and posted on my personal blog, they might not be thrilled… And if I were to seek permission, they’d want it on the company website instead…

Like that time someone gave a tour of Twitter HQ on TikTok and it inadvertently exposed that they and their coworkers basically did nothing all day but drink cappuccinos and eat free company food.

You could tell these guys were genuinely thrilled they got free sugary drinks in 2006. That was considered a serious perk back then.

It was. I was a teenager in the northwest in the 90s, and remember how aspirational it was to work somewhere that gave employees that kind of latitude.
