Small world

A few years ago when I was still waiting for my GC I was a consultant at a large bank. They had a vendor headquartered in Redwood City and once a few of us visited the vendor to discuss their next release. It was my first time in that part of the valley so I did not even know where exactly we were (near the exit from 92/San Mateo bridge to US101). And I enormously liked the office the vendor had. And felt so envious of people who could choose employers and were smart enough to work in the valley and in that beautiful new office.

So guess what - my new company is located in exactly the same office park in exactly the same kind of building. And if not for driving two hours daily  I would be totally ecstatic. In a sense, driving is so much better than public transport (no freaks and minorities in one space with you and nothing stinks) but you also cannot spend that time productively by reading blogs. Anyway, I am awfully busy because the system will be large, almost nothing exists yet and I need to carve a niche for myself before other smart people come and take all the juicy components :)
