Le righe
- Nine months on Atlas. You all did that. Kitchen, second floor.
- No meeting attached, no follow-up. Go eat something.
- We had a bad March and you carried it.
- There's enough for two each. Do not take four, Marcus.
- From the leadership team, who did comparatively little.
- For the floor. Thank you for a quarter that could have gone badly and didn't.
- Break room, now, before the other team hears about it.
- You shipped it four days early, which has never happened here.
- For everyone who worked the weekend of the 12th. You know who you are.
- Thank you for covering the desk through two departures and a system migration.
- No speech. Just something on the table.
- Congratulations on the launch. Take Friday afternoon.

Short and specific beats long and general. “I still think about you driving me to the airport at five in the morning” does more work than three sentences of sympathy, because only you could have written it.
