GamePigeon

Second year at NYC boutique. This doesn’t reflect the state of the firm at all, in fact it’s had quite a good reputation in recent years and I’ve had my hands full for every second I’ve been here; but no matter what is going on, my phone is unlocked on my desk and I’m waiting for my next GamePigeon to be sent. I’ve played probably thousands of mancala games, all with fellow banking analyst friends at other banks. Phone is on low brightness and I try to keep it discreet, and it’s a given that I don’t let it affect my work (nothing ever done late or subpar quality, I’m not a fool). Game pigeon is just my lowkey vice when I’m at the desk. Does this resonate with anyone? Or does anyone have any similar cases?
