My new early birds rewards program

While I was out of the office last week, someone left a six-pack of microbrew beer under my desk.

There was no note. I have some theories, but as I write this I am not sure which of my colleagues left me with this thoughtful gift.

This morning I decided that, as a Halloween treat, I would present bottles of beer to the first four people who arrived in the newsroom after me.

I wonder if doing that every day would eventually alter certain day-shift staffers’ arrival times.
