There was even a box of free lemon-lime tic-tacs that I remember leaving on the table next to my desk.
Oh, and there were over 4,300 new emails in my inbox waiting to be sorted through, even after moderate filtering.
Oh well, I’m not complaining. The bureaucratic portion of my day (red tape and such — the necessary evils) lasted under an hour and, as always, I got delicious free breakfast and lunch. Go team!
