Some selected posts about life with the big G
I've been told that it's hard to find my posts regarding what working at Google was like. While it's possible to get things in a nice grouped format in my book, that only applies for posts from 2011, at least until I put together another book!
So, as a service to my readers who are looking for my "life in corporate hell" content, I did another pass through my archives and dug up a few key examples. This should give you some idea of what it was like.
