The folks eating Costco snacks in the background are studying the exercisers, but Scott isn&#8217;t.<br \/>\nAnd what I love most of all is that the picture captures the essence of Redfin, in all of its absurdity and hopefulness, as a company of goofy software engineers, earnest about self-improvement, and worldly real estate agents, wondering what all this has to do with helping someone sell her home.<br \/>\nIn the broadest view of the office, the agents and the engineers are as far apart as possible. And indeed, the knowingness in Scott\u2019s expression makes this distance seem great. But when you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/0b2xq3huhdu07on\/Nagel.jpg\">look more closely<\/a>, the fondness makes it small.<br \/>\nThe project of any company over time is to create a story of how different people find a common cause. The differences at Redfin are greater than usual, but so is the cause. And a story that is hard to put into words fits easily into this picture.<br \/>\nTo propose a caption for this photo, just post a comment below!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every afternoon at 2:00, Redfin\u2019s engineers and product managers gather for a set of push-ups, sit-ups, planks, crunches and burpees.
