Ah, driving to work at 7am. Burnham is on the right, the hilton is at the light. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Guess where we are? La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | The new main lobby, looking from the coffee station trying not to be noticed : ) La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Cube-land. At least i get an office, 5913 on the right. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | My abode for the last few years, since 2004. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Charles and Andy, both good guys. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Joel Kaufman at his desk. He's grown up a lot recently. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Action Jackson! La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Another view of cubeville. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Albert Leung and Doug "kristine you get under my skin kristine" Martin. They're trying to work or something. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Larry Neer and Ken Cartwright clearly upset about the flagrant violation of company policy. Really. Not everyone is so task/rule oriented however. And Larry really doesn't like his picture taken : ) La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Jackson Wan back at his desk La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Jen Davies, Jeff Rademacher, and Scott Robertson wondering about what to do with camera man. This is their hood btw, the basement break/fix room. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | The view from my office, overlooking I-5 north-ish. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | The 1st floor bio south wing with office space on the right, lab on left. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Not exactly like those dupont commercials huh? This is what a real lab looks like, at least an industry lab. Academia is a mess as i have witnessed at Salk. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | And there are no cats running around accidentally dropping bottles and inventing stuff. That doesn't happen in real life. What would happen is a mess. Or an explosion. But not a product. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | The view from the 2nd floor breezeway with people having lunch below. Onsite cafeteria, not too bad. Life could be worse. But the grass is sooo much greener.... La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | The old main lobby. With contruction of the new 'building' we got a new lobby. Now this is just a pretty waste of space. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | A great looking courtyard, it was envisioned that people would meet here and talk and collaborate and shit. Stupid f*king architects and central decision makers. Duh, people don't like to be watched. And guess what is all around the courtyard, see any windows? Morons, they should've asked the people. But it could be worse i suppose, we could be in one of those shitholes in sorrento valley as a startup. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | Hey, we pay lip service to enviro causes. These panels were put in the 1/2 shaded area so people could see them. The rest are on the roof. The cogen in the background is a disaster. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large | This is me in my office with a 10 yr old shirt. And jeans. As long as you don't look like shit you're ok. And you get the job done. Who cares how you look. Just do your shit. La Jolla, CA save file: small medium large |
