Ramblings from a 30-something ultra-marathoning yogi with a day job.

Helicopter

with 2 comments

I was walking across Microsoft campus the other day and noticed a few security guards standing along the perimeter of our sports fields.

Yes, we actually have a gigantic sport field, with a few soccer fields, a ball field and a beach volleyball court. It’s pretty state-of-the-art; made out of “field turf.” This stuff actually feels like grass and has faux dirt (small bits of rubber) that give it a bit of added traction and bounce.

Anyway, after a few minutes, I noticed the guards run out towards the field. Were they gonna start an impromptu game of  touch football? Maybe do a few conditioning drills?

Nope.

A large ball of steel decended out of the grey sky, and our fearless leader hopped out.

Perhaps he woke up late for a meeting and traffic was a bit too severe? Perhaps he made a quick sandwich run to Red Hook? Maybe he was meeting with a VIP downtown?

Whatever the reason, you know you’ve made it when you show up to work in a Helicopter!
