In honor of the US Open Table Tennis Championships starting, I’ve compiled some resources that are a sure fire way to boost your game. In between swinging at emo faces, be sure to peep a few.

Gear up

Geek out

  • Average travel time to work in minutes: 15
    I went from driving 2.5 hours/day to 30minutes/day. I’m gaining 10 hours/week of free time! I get home at nite and actually have time to think about what I would make for dinner if I could cook. Next week I’m ordering “The Absolute Beginner’s Cookbook“
  • Days I wore my AM90s: 5
    Yes, I wore them to SoleTech as well, but this time I didn’t have Brink stressin out that we’re all gonna fired if we didn’t wear 00tneez.
  • Computers installed: 2
    Everybody at Incase is running Mac OS X. However, I got me two sweet Dells! I installed Windoze on one and Ubuntu + LAMP on the other. Combined they are half the price of the laptop that Metzger got.
  • Times I played ping pong: 2
    They take their ping pong a little too serious over at Incase (some dude got $200 paddles), and I kinda suck at it, so I’m gonna try to get them to buy a foosball table.
  • Saunas in the office: 1
    I kid you not, there’s a freaking sauna in the bathroom!
  • Money spent on lunch: 0
    Remember this ordeal? No more! Everyday we get free lunch and eat at a big table like one big happy family.
  • TPS reports filled out: 0

So with this post, I’de like to thank Metzger for gettin me out of the skate indu$try and giving me an opportunity to work for such a cool company. I’m looking forward to next week and the week after next and then next after next and next… Thanks homie!
