Don't knock it until you try it. The SV culture is something to be experienced.

- nradov 8y agoI've tried it. The "culture" you referred to is honestly pretty lame, and only even exists in a small fraction of Silicon Valley.
- geggam 8y agoSome folks don't like it others do. To your point Offices are for work I simply call bullshit. Every office in the valley is a damn open floor plan and the antithesis of productivity
- thatfrenchguy 8y agoSnacks are bad for you (and lead you to bad eating habits).
- stronglikedan 8y agoNo they're not (and not they don't). Snacks are inanimate objects that can't lead anyone to anything. People abusing snacks lead themselves to bad eating habits.
- BoiledCabbage 8y agoCyanide is bad for you and can lead to death. "No it's not, it's an inanimate object..."
- stronglikedan 8y agoYou are correct, but it's still not a valid comparison.
- nradov 8y agoYou're technically correct, but real humans are subject to temptation and have limited willpower. I don't think it's a great idea for employers to make it convenient for employees with sedentary jobs to eat more.
- stronglikedan 8y agoI don't think it's a great idea for me to lose a perk that I enjoy because some people are subject to temptation and have limited willpower. Those types of people would just bring in their own snacks if they weren't available oh, so I don't see the problem with the employer providing them to those who consider them a perk. I'm sure some of the more frugal employees would save a lot at the grocery store by sticking to the free snacks provided.

- stronglikedan 8y agoYou must make a lot of unsubstantiated assumptions.
- IWeldMelons 8y agoYou have no sense of humor.
