Google, CPMQ8 Programmer (2056-2060)
When he was 21, his old friend from NVIT, called him and asked whether if he wanted to join Google. He first declined, but then accepted a few days later due that his father went ill and he could not afford the medical bill.

During the times he spent in Google, he really enjoyed it. He had worked on very important projects, such as:
 * VGoogle (a virtual headset by Google)
 * Android X5 (aka Android Sherbet)
 * some server repairments
