In all likelihood, you're not looking to join a drug cartel. That's great. But, no one can deny Breaking Bad can teach you a lot about entrepreneurship — regardless of your trade.

A key takeaway from the hit show is to never settle for mediocre office snacks. It's equally important to remember that corporate mergers aren't always a good thing for both parties.

RJ Mitte — better known as breakfast enthusiast Walt Jr. — took these lessons to heart. Actually, he kind of just showed up at Refinery29 one day and built a niche but lucrative market in the back-cubicle dealings of our cereal supply.

Things at R29 headquarters are understandably darker, now. No one can escape his monopoly. Even our executive creative director and founding partner Piera Gelardi finds herself caught in Mitte's sugary breakfast-cereal clutches. It's all very Heisenberg.

Seriously, he won't leave. We are hungry. Send help.
