LinkedIn Hong Kong

Today was the day I look for LinkedIn’s Hong Kong office. Not too difficult right? I got the floor, street name, the district, Causeway Bay, and the street number… crap! Why didn’t they send me the street number or even the building name. Oh well, I’ll just look for a sign, a huge one, like the one back in Mountain view. Guest what? This area is filled with signs and my best bet was to persevere in my search going building to building. Awful idea. There was this one building that I went up to the correct floor, walked into the room, and asked, “LinkedIn?” It was a room filled with cubicles and computers. Everyone just looked at me and started speaking Chinese. Not the place. Hell, I didn’t think they even heard of LinkedIn. Gladly, on my third try I found our office. Huzzah! Of course, it’s a temporary space so no signage. That explains everything. Good to find the place and of course, hear about the troubles they have. Globalization isn’t that easy to attain you know.

Anyways, after checking some email it was off to shop and eat in Causeway Bay. Again, didn’t buy anything and only had a quick bite. At the bottom of Sogo there’s a Japanese food court. Decent quality. I had soba to keep things light. That also left room for some Hui Lau Shan. I got myself a cup of mango goodness to keep my sugar levels up during the shopping.

Sorry, not much to add to this day. But for any shopaholics out there, what’s you’re take on Journal Standard. Nice looking stuff. I wanted to buy a coat but don’t know about their quality.
