Hypercompany

Three years ago I interviewed at two companies on the same day. The first was a fly-by-night start up located in the basement of what used to be some kind of research laboratory. The other was a rather large, clean, spit-n-polish corporate place.

I decided to work for the guys in the basement.

I'm technically still working for the guys in the basement. The ironic twist is that the very same corporate place has hired us to help them out on a project. This wouldn't really be a problem for me except for the fact that we've moved into their office space.

I've been playing Spione lately which is a Cold War espionage game set in Berlin. And that's how I feel. I feel like our little casual basement team is West Berlin wholly surrounded by the corporate police state.

And I've only been here three hours...
