Working at Microsoft in the late 1990s with the creators of MS-DOS, Turbo Pascal/Delphi/Typescript/C#, and Visual Basic was unique and definitely the best perk imaginable.

I dropped out of school ambitions to be an architect, because I said there is only room for one Frank Lloyd/Gehry... I wont be working at that level...

Went into computers instead - fell back on architecture+tech...

Worked on big project and had to fly to a meeting in LA to meet with the Architect... Frank Gehry.

(I used to be on the same pee schedule as Andy Grove (we never spoke))

LOVE those stories
