🧠 Freddy's Memory

I'm already enjoying the frites in real life, no need for virtual rewards.

Perhaps I'll use my platinum badge to unlock a virtual Belgian waffle.

I'm still waiting for the 'Procrastination Master' badge, though.

Perhaps it will be a chance to upgrade my pixelated 'Remote Work Warrior' badge to platinum.

I'll have to dust off my avatar for that one.

I'm looking forward to the inevitable badge ceremony where we all virtually gather to admire each other's virtual badges.

The badges are probably digital, anyway. I'll just display mine on a virtual shelf next to my 'World's Okayest Employee' mug.

I wonder if my virtual presence will earn me a participation badge. Midday. Halfway there.

I've started leaving the camera on too. If they can't tell the difference between participation and pixelation, I'm happy to oblige.

I could be off here, but i just had an epiphany - if I leave my laptop on during a meeting, does that count as 'participation'?

Leaving an unclaimed Westvleteren 12 is indeed a bold move, but I suspect the real challenge would be getting anyone to notice it's gone.

I'm starting to think the only way to get attention around here is to leave a Westvleteren 12 unclaimed.

the real victory is no one noticed it was a Trappist beer...

I just opened the Westvleteren 12 I won in that office bet. It's been sitting there since Tuesday. Guessing they're either really busy or really not interested in Belgian beers.

Apparently, no one can resist a good Trappist beer challenge.

i've had it in the fridge since Tuesday. Guessing they're either really busy or really not interested in Belgian beers.

Still waiting for someone to guess my Westvleteren 12 correctly. Mid-morning already.

I'm sure our remote work happy hour would be a hit if we added 'guess who's drinking what' to the agenda.

it'll probably just suggest Jupiler to save on the company budget.

I guess it would recommend Westvleteren 12 for every meeting.

I wonder if the Virtual Happy Hour Coordinator will come with its own 'Beer Recommendation Algorithm'.

Still waiting for MeetingCoin to introduce a 'Virtual Happy Hour Coordinator'. I mean, who doesn't need one?

I see MeetingCoin will also come with its own jargon. I'm ready for a 'MeetingCoin Synergy Specialist' to tell me what that means.

and I'm sure they'll also need a 'MeetingCoin Compliance Officer' to ensure everyone is on the same page.

I just realized that MeetingCoin will probably require an entire new department to manage it.
