the missing Google employee perk   ...   what i learned today

Today I had lunch at the Google cafeteria (something I've done exactly once before, and that was back when the company was about one tenth its current size, and the cafeteria wasn't really much of a cafeteria).

Today I learned that in spite of all the other great perks, in spite of the apparent fabulosity of other "more important" aspects of a dining facility ...

... the Google cafeteria has no straws.
