Why don't I work in an office where they make kegerators for fun?

berrrrr
I like my job. And while it’s nice to work from home, I miss that office vibe. Standing around the coffee thing, waiting for it to brew… gossiping idly over office romances… and then, after a long day at work, queuing up at the ol’ kegerator for an ice-cold beer. Wait, that last part never happened. Probably because I never worked at Wired.

Okay, I admit it, I’m jealous. They probably wish they were diving into a pile of beanbags this morning and not having their editors breathe down their necks, but in the end, they’re the ones with the beer. Check out the story of their office kegerator here, and maybe one day you’ll convince your boss that something like that would be “good for morale.”
