And if you were working with clones of yourself, that would be a sensible argument. As it is, we're talking about the workplace as a whole. And dismissing the people who give more fucks as "whiners" is hardly helping. Basically: you're part of the problem, and one of the reasons companies find it hard to offer perks like this.

Cans of soda. That's what we're arguing about. Its a rounding error on a balance sheet. If you can't offer perks because you're worried you're going to lose less than what a decent cellphone plan for 1 person costs monthly, find somewhere else to work than tech. People are people, and getting bent out of shape over soda is insane.
