Great article, Jeff, as always. Especially like the favorite chips clarification at the end to mitigate the potential of too many Pringles deliveries to your house... One of the questions I ask when onboarding someone is 'what are your favorite snacks?' If the cabinets and the fridge in the office have snacks-that-make-you-smile, you are a happier team!

Jeff... great commentary regarding employer-employee relations! ... alas, Union Pacific was my favorite model train growing up. For the record, my favorites- 1.) Kettle chips- jalapeno, 2.) Kettle chips- sea salt and vinegar 3.) any form of homemade chips Bill

Honestly, I thin Union Pacific was my favorite model train too. I was going to put homemade chips on the list too but it's tough to beat Kettle Chips.

l enjoy watching the UP mega-trains chugging their way up the El Cajon Pass when driving from Vegas to LA. Still waiting for the perfect photo op! Yes, kettle chips of any flavor will do...
