IDEAL JOB
My ideal job would ultimately be to set up my own tech company. But honestly, ever since starting my business, I have not really worked for anyone else. Working in an office environment as a staff is something that I have always wanted to do, especially after touring Google and Facebook office campus in San Francisco. With all the random free perks like the meals, snacks, gaming rooms, and tech accessories, not to mention all the holiday paid leave, sick leave, bonus schemes, job security etc, who wouldn't want to work there? My ideal job if I graduate would be to work in one of these firms in San Francisco.
