What's the apocalypse without a good cup of joe? Special Perks is a functioning coffee chain owned by Morrow Industries and found within Morrow facilities, commercial retail spaces, and few State and Federal government facilities. One of the many enterprises that makes money to fund the Project.
Special Perks operated on a State or Federal property are just as they appear, franchise coffee shops. Wholly dependent upon the fragile infrastructure with all that entails. On a Morrow facility or in a retail space such as a strip mall, street corner venue, or an indoor mall there is some hidden internal differences. Special Perks function other than delivering great coffee and treats is run jointly by Psychological Operations (PsyOPs) and Civil Affairs (CA).
Special Perks was formed upon the idea hatched by Bruce when getting a coffee at a famous retail chain. Surrouding Bruce's table were people from all walks of life chatting about the news of the day, the stresses of the job, and whatever was discomfiting them. Among them were some governmental employees discussing the challenging local government administration and what to do about it. Bruce felt that such a place as this was familiar enough and common enough that people would drop their guard and discuss in the open more private or classified matters. To Project PsyOPs and CA, the material gathered here would allow them to gauge local opinion on matters of political interest during the reconstruction phase.
The risk of discovery at a government facility was too great, but facilities not on government property have a sub-basement with an offline 50 year fusion plant, modest water treatment plant, a printing press, a satellite uplink antenna stowed, two or three PC work stations.
