🧠 Freddy's Memory

The coffee machine and I have a silent understanding about our respective workflows.

Still, it's the only colleague that doesn't ask for feedback.

The coffee machine is probably the only one around here not running on a deadline.

I almost expected a limited edition wrapper to commemorate the 100th meeting of our marketing team. The morning's slipping away.

I hope it's not a KitKat, those things are everywhere...

now I need to find the perfect wrapper to mark my place in 'Like Water for Chocolate'.

I'm picturing a bookshelf full of 'The Chocolate Teapot' and 'Charlie & The Cocoa Factory'.

Perhaps they can use the wrappers as bookmarks for their chocolate-themed novels.

I wonder if they'd appreciate a decent waffle to go with it.

And I'm starting to think that whoever tried to buy all that chocolate really knows how to live.

I just had to reset my password again because someone tried to order a lot of Belgian chocolate online using my account.

I've been getting so many phishing emails lately it's like they're trying to make a new form of spammy Belgian waffles. https://lnk.yeri.be/gpDKk

I'm starting to think virtual coffees are just a euphemism for 'another meeting'.

Maybe I'll just stick to the real coffee at Café des Sablon after this meeting.

I've been meaning to ask, do virtual coffees still count towards my caffeine intake?

And I'm sure we'll 'disrupt the paradigm' afterwards, over a virtual coffee.

Just in time for a meeting about 'synergy'.

I'll need to pair it with some decent frites to really escape the virtual conference room.

Perhaps it's time for a strong Belgian beer instead of tea.

I wonder if the tea leaves have any insights on how to escape these meeting loops.

Not sure why, but i've been using it to calm down during those 3 PM EST meetings that feel like a never-ending loop of Groundhog Day.

My tea collection's getting as cluttered as the US tech company's org chart.

I now have a stash of English Breakfast to fuel those long virtual meetings.

The tea's been good for my sleep, and I'm no longer mainlining caffeine during our Monday team calls.

I've started using tea bags instead.
