Jenny Hagel Makes Good Choices
Briefly

Jenny Hagel, a writer at Late Night With Seth Meyers, reflects on the mixed feelings of remote work life. While she enjoys more flexibility and time for personal tasks, such as keeping her laundry done, she misses the camaraderie of her colleagues. Alongside her writing, she runs a monthly comedy show and actively manages life as a single mother. A highlight of her morning routine includes brewing coffee using a simple but revered device, emphasizing her quirky personality and humor.
The flexibility works well between writing for Meyers, hosting her comedy show, and managing personal life, capturing both the joy and sorrow of remote work.
Hagel describes her coffee-making routine as a ritual, using the Melitta 1-Cup Pour-Over Coffee Brew Cone, a simple device she finds critical to her mornings.
Despite her busy schedule and love for coffee, Hagel's personal life, including sharing custody of her son, influences her daily experiences.
Hagel humorously identifies as a 'morning person,' detailing her careful, reverential approach to making coffee each day.
