10. Coworkers who run search ads against your name to prove that you Google yourself.
9. You can un-press the elevator buttons at San Francisco HQ. If you accidentally press 2 when you mean to press 3, just double click and the light goes off. Genius. Why are not all elevators like this?
8. Being surrounded by clothes and shoes all the time. In the hallways, sample closets, everywhere.
7. The ridiculously hot coffee in the Gapeteria. So hot that you can put tons of milk in it and it will still steam. So satisfying.
6. Proximity to the Embarcadero. The path to walk on. The ferry building. The water. And the big arrow statue thing. I'll miss that too.
5. Friends and Family (now "Give and Get"). It's so fun to share your employee discount with friends who love to shop. Now I'll have to hope I can get one.
4. Going home at a predictable time every day. After a life of consulting, totally amazing.
3. The employee discount. You can't really beat 50% off at Banana Republic and Gap, especially when the merchandise is good.
2. Playing on Facebook was part of my job. Seriously.
1. The people are fun.
