It is most likely a biological drive deep in our DNA that pushes humans to improve. If we didn’t always try to go faster, farther and be better than the status quo, we probably wouldn’t be reading about space exploration on the internet or helping our kids master quantum physics by the fifth grade.

There is a sign on our front door that reminds us in the office to bring home our lunches. Yes, all of us ‘support staff’ order Choicelunch online just like you do, not only for our midday breaks, but also to take home to our families. Many of us have young kiddos, not yet enrolled in school, and hungry spouses anxious for us to bring home the bacon (or salads and sushi, as is more often the case—no bacon yet on the Choicelunch menu). What does this mean to you?
