I live in a fairly new building within downtown Los Angeles. It’s a huge high-rise and really glossy new appliances. Despite all its prettiness and various great amenities, the building has got to have the worst elevator system ever. In New York, building elevators are often out of […]
I often don’t eat at work. More often than not, I skip lunch entirely. I have a stickie right by the side of my office door that states “don’t forget food.” The stickie doesn’t really work. I will work and just get through the day without really […]
