This morning I had to take the hard step of saying goodbye to my longtime furry accomplice. His surgery a few months ago went well but there’s only so much you can do against cancer.

In some ways it seems like a small thing, but learning that my employer was making Juneteeth a global holiday felt important.
We want everyone at 1Password to have the opportunity to reflect and learn about racial inequality, so we’re making Juneteenth a paid holiday for our team of 400+ people, across the globe – our (virtual) offices will be closed on Friday, June 18, 2021. In an effort to educate and inspire action, we shared information on the history/heritage of the holiday and ways 1Password employees can make a difference in their communities.

Started the morning bright and early with a fire alarm during a thunderstorm. 🚨⛈
