I have been working at Adobe for almost 11 years now, but have been in the consulting group for about 1.5 years. I have not really worked in my own office since then. I usually have assignments at government agencies or banks or insurance houses. These are not usually happy places to work. This week I am assigned to an honest to goodness silicon valley semi-startup company. It has been a long time since I felt the passion and the urgency of such a place. I know that this may seem a bit over the edge here but it has been absolutely sublime to be submerged in an environment where everyone is invested and passionate about their work. I have been detached from such an environment for long enough to really have forgotten what it was all about.
I have been hearing a bunch of rhetoric (as have you all) about American ingenuity. I have thought it BS until this week. It does still exist and in the same place it always was for the last 20 or so years, right here in Silicon Valley!
Go us!
