Hey….

The team that cleans our building is now down to a crew of four. We have a pretty big building, and some big expectations, so this will be burdensome for the crew. What I’m hoping is that with a little courtesy, we can help not hinder their success.

1. please throw your trash away into a waste bin, or your recycling into a recycle bin- the crew shouldn’t have to pick up after us.

2. if a bin is full, please don’t overload it. Contact myself for an extra bag- it’s much easier for the team to take out two bags than have to struggle with one over full bag.

3. if you have any suggestions to help us keep the labs clean and neat, send my way. I think. Hmm…maybe that’s a bad idea…..

Subject: [cs-ugrads] Google hiring

I received a note yesterday from Google.  About 6 months ago, Google significantly slowed their hiring.  That is now in the past — the company is back to an aggressive hiring stance, particularly in the Seattle office.  It’s a good time to apply.
