Seattle on the horizon…
Posted by Josh in Seattle, Trips on February 12, 2008 | « Back to main
Some exciting news has taken place here at FSI headquarters of the past few weeks. This June/July we’re packing up and moving to Seattle. Dun, dun, dun! Unlike last summer in San Francisco, this will be an extended stay as I settle into my first full-time job post grad school. As for the position, I simply couldn’t be happier — I’ll be an Interaction Designer for Google. It truly is a dream job for where my interests are and what I want to do for a living. Lauren and I both feel pretty great about this decision, yet the hard part will obviously be leaving everything we’ve known and appreciated here for well… oh, our entire lives so far. :(
As of last weekend I’ve officially accepted the job, and this weekend we’re off to visit the area for the first time, complete with an arranged housing tour and a dinner with the future co-workers. Everyone up there has been overwhelmingly welcoming, and I’ve already worked with a few of them from this past summer.
Below is a box of swag they sent along (as if we didn’t have enough already) and a picture of me signing the documents to make it official.

Logos everywhere!

Life as I know it is over. Do you think you guys can hurry up and invent a matter transporter so we can be there instantaneously instead of having to buy plane tickets? Just get to work on that Google boy. I’ll supply the materials.

I am so excited for you both. Jill and I will miss you dearly but now we have another reason to travel. New Years at our place!

Wow! That is great news. Josh and I have always wanted to visit there. Now we’ll have an even better reason to visit.
