Reasons to Work at Google

While there are really great reasons why one should work at Google, Kevin puts it best..

why work for google? think about it. people are always searching for a better job. no matter how much you like a job at first you get sick of it after a while. unhappiness is caused by not having found what you’re searching for. if you get a job at google, your job is searching. once you dislike it, what are you going to do – go searching? no. you hate searching. so you don’t search, so you don’t get unhappy so therefore you stay happy. the perfect job.

Of course, there were replies to that..

<DoC> Well, you could also blog for a better job. Or mail for a better job with lots of capacity.
<paul> kevin: that’s your worst joke yet 🙂
<DoC> Or secret underground laser for a better job.
<kevin> paul: it makes perfect sense.
<DoC> Wait. That’s probably covered under my NDA. Look into this apparatus for a second, everyone.
<Minus1> kevin: i’m sorry… you are *really* reaching.
<kevin> DoC: ah yes, but you aren’t searching then are you?
* paul tries to recover from having read kevin’s google-job-searching joke
<pron> paul: was it a joke ?
* pron thinks kevin wants a google job
