This was forwarded to me in an e-mail, inviting a "look inside of Google." However, as the UN and other globalist forces such as sustainable development within "smart cities," one doesn't have to be a brain surgeon, rocket scientist, or computer engineer to grasp how attractive life could be as a serf at a big corporation such as Google, or that such corporations could eventually displace or become nations (i.e.. nanny states) unto themselves. Below is the content of the message:
Google Solar Array, Mountain View California
Today, Google employs 20,223 people around the world receiving a resume every 25 seconds from eager job-seekers, hiring an average of nine new employees a day.
A full-size replica of Virgin Atlantic's Spaceship One (space tourist vehicle hangs in the reception area.
Exercise
To work off the pounds, and the stress...
Google has its own state-of-the-art gym ... offering weight-training and a host of exercise machines, rowing machines, lockers and shower rooms, and two swim-in-place wave pools.
Other perks include free haircuts, dry cleaning and laundry, child care, car services, chiropractors and five onsite doctors available for employee check-ups; all free of charge.
Perhaps the most unusual bonus of all ... employees can bring their dogs to work with them and keep the four-legged canine in their offices.
We already know that working for Google has certain advantages, but, believe me, this giant of a search engine takes the welfare of its employees seriously as shown by this decompression (stress) capsule that is impermeable to sound and light...

Snack: Cookie Set-Up
Back to Work
Work Station
Each employee has at least two large screens. There are 4-6 'Zooglers' per office.
(Zoogler: A large computer screen whereby messages from the managers are displayed. Zoogler is initially termed by Google for the additional main screen available on each work floor.)
Innovation
Large boards are available just about everywhere because 'ideas don't always come when seated in the office' says one of Google's managers.
Leisure
Pool tables, video games, etc. are available in many areas.
Communication
On each floor, there are private cabin areas where employees attend to personal affairs.
Having Trouble with your computer? No problem ... bring it to this Tech Stop area where drinks are available while it is being fixed...

Professional massage therapists are available.
Rest
There are many books in this library ... even some about programming!

Eleanor: As seductive as employment at Google seem from this photo essay, one wonders WHY they would need all of the perks to keep employees happy and in line.
This is reminiscent of what is happening to the Western world as governments are attempting to institute a nanny-state environment. It's not much of a leap to see how corporations could take over as governments typically do a lousy job.>
Be careful what you wish for: human nature and the law of unintended consequences.
