Hello blog readers!
On Thursday October 3, 2013, my FFP class took a field trip to the old tannery building in downtown Kitchener. This building is home to multiple tech companies including Communitech and Google.
Our tour started off in Communitech's facilities and we were led through there building which included their personal buisness startup facilites as well as the University of Waterloo's Velocity Garage, which is a tech startup facility dirrectly attatched to U of W's Velocity Residence.
Once we went through that section of the building we headed up to the Google office.
That was probably the most interesting work space I've ever seen in my life.
They have a slide from second to first floor, they have trampoline chairs that actually have a form they go to when you sit in them, they have an entire wall that's a whiteboard, they have a little half baskeball court, and they have a gong in one of the meeting rooms.
Like seriously, who designed this place?
Overall it was a pretty awesome place to go.
Definately one of the most interesting field trips I've ever been on.
Until later, goodbye my readers!
