Last chance to get the Sheep plush! Not to be doing self-promo but I'm trying to avoid the disappointment in the eyes of people who walked by my desk when I had the Chicken plush last time and were like WHAT I CAN'T GET IT ANYMORE

Not really a life hack but you can just steep mint leaves instead of getting mint tea and it's like 1/8th the price

Is there such thing as trying to avoid bias TOO much in interviews?
...Wearing the same basic shirt to all three interviews so that someone doesn't, for example, comment on my band shirt and I like them more for it

Best question on our management feedback form:
What's the most annoying thing about your boss? What do you complain to your partners/friends about: "ugh my boss always does _____ and it's really annoying!"
Obviously employee's answers are going to be toned down, but it's been very revealing!
