Erik Larson Quote

But Burnham also created an office culture that anticipated that of businesses that would not appear for another century. He installed a gym. During lunch hour employees played handball. Burnham gave fencing lessons. Root played impromptu recitals on a rented piano. The office was full of a rush of work, Starrett said, but the spirit of the place was delightfully free and easy and human in comparison with other offices I had worked in.
