Every Startup Office Should Have

Feel free to add your list of things a startup office should have.

Personally, here's a list of things I need to have to be fully productive and passionate on what I do.

Every startup office should have at least the following:

1. A bed

2. A shower

3. A masseur

4. BBQ

5. Fridge with Beer and Soda.

6. Addicting games. (ie. SC2, Dota)

7. Monthly vacation trips

8. Beach access

9. Alcohol

10. Outdoor office with a big patio umbrella and wifi

11. Best audiophile headphone on the market

Any "startup" that meets your criteria is not a startup, but either a) a very successful business with money to burn, or b) riding the VC train to shutdowns-ville.

Ask not what your startup can do for you, but what you can do for your startup.

P.S. Calling these "needs" makes you sound incredibly entitled

Provided it isn't anywhere near direct sunlight: a plexiglass greenhouse. Perfect scribble-everywhere breakout space. As inspired by Hub Westminster.

What about a Capuccino machine... and as many Macs as you can afford.

A good idea.
