Workplace porn or career karma? 1:46pm on 19 Jun 2008 I'm really Shocked at that wages.
I mean, I was thinking, with all the perks I can understand that they won'y pay the best, but firms in this country (UK) will pay you that much and they aren't even multinationals or Market leaders.

I Think Google is the best for its employees (friends have told me) but they are very clever in the perks that they offer you.

Call it a Conspiracy theory or not, but having spoken to their employees; the free food, video games, and 'relax zones' are all very very clever ideas conjured up by occupational physiologists.
If there are objects of desire, that you do not have the luxury of having at your own home or will spend with your own cash, you get the wealth affect. You try and use them as much as possible.
Now with this employees can stay at work for longer hours, as when tired 'drained' they have somewhere to get away from it all.
This leads to longer hours spent in Google, amongst your co-workers, and thus adding to productivity, because instead of spending 37.5 hours a week, you end up spending over 50.

According to me those guys at Google are Genius!
You Are The Ref #1 4:07pm on 03 Jun 2008 This is all about Advantage:
The descion not to stop play was to play the advantage. Once the ball is no longer at an advantage to the team with the man on the floor, play should be brought back to where the player was fouled. He is still on the ground and hence the team would now be at a disadvantage.

So the moment the ball is saved and kicked out by the defender, the ref should call play back and give the red card, therefore, no goal stands
