Due to an accident I've been away quite awhile. But now I'm back fully equipped to carry on an important missing of keep you on the same page with the life over here.

To cut the long story short, this post is dedicated to the new building Microsoft has prepared for employees in Richmond. It's awesome. No kidding. It's very stylish, warm colors, open space, comfortable furniture, new offices, new conference rooms and a lot more. Basically Microsoft Canada Development Centre (which stands for MCDC) has 4 buildings but 2 of them are under construction yet. When the last builder leaves the area, MCDC will be capable of housing 300+ talanted boys and girls who wish to make the difference.

Freshly squeezed part of the building #3 has 3 conference rooms: Grouse, Whistler and Blackcomb. The guy suggested these names was awarded with $25 from Bread Garden.

Offices in new area are intended for seniors. I don't know how senior you have to be to get one of them. I suppose you need to have at least a couple of reports. Most of the offices are currently vacant.

Now we got official Microsoft reception with a big corporate title above ladies heads, soft furniture in the lobby and free candies.

I should probably stop talking and start sharing photos. Enjoy.
