i found my people

I want to work for Google.

They give awesome benefits: yoga, fitness center, massage room… and free gourmet meals during work. Hook. me. up. (And the guest and the outsider, as they eat a surprising amount of food.)

So why am I bringing this up? Because Google is holding a competition to hire two new chefs! Chefs who cook with organic ingredients for both carnivores and VEGETARIANS! Yay!

Seriously people, how awesome is this company?

It’s in Mountain View, CA. When you visit (to write about it or whatnot) you get Google boxer shorts as a parting gift. They have a wall mural of the company’s rise.. in crayon. There are toys like scooters and a pool table—for them to play with. They serve cereal: 13 different kinds, including Lucky Charms… this is in addition to the gourmet food in the ultra-cool cafeteria. And they all went to see the new Harry Potter movie—together.

I completely work for the wrong company… I am a Googler. These are my people.
