I interviewed at Google a few days ago and was absolutely blown away. I previously interviewed at another smaller site for Google so I didn’t realize how much the larger offices have. Has any googler tried “living” at the office for some amount of time? Maybe just get a PO box for mail, storage unit for “stuff”, a car and Airbnb when you get tired of the office. Or get a place and Airbnb it most days and sleep in the capsules if your place is occupied. It literally has everything you need.
There are stories of people doing it but generally have a goal. Like a year or so to pay student loans or something. It takes too much of toll on your mental well-being and once you start having cash in the bank it becomes harder to justify this lifestyle.
Which office? In WA or CA?
It’s better to have a home and focus on impact. I don’t think you can do what you propose and be the best you that you can be.
That sounds horrible..what's the point of having a well paying job if you're living a terrible life? Sleeping in pods every night? Jfc
Wouldn't you like to retire early?
Don’t listen to these snowflakes. Do it now while you have the opportunity. Live a Spartan lifestyle. Be different and embrace that difference.
There was a story years back about a guy who bought an old van, parked it in Google's lot, and basically lived in the car / at the office.
Crazy! I don’t really feel like going back to my door desk and unlimited stash of 🍌 on Monday
But I bet he also never had sexual relations that year either
