MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — The perks of working at Google are the envy of Silicon Valley. Unlimited amounts of free chef-prepared food at all times of day. A climbing wall, a volleyball court and two lap pools. On-site car washes, oil changes and haircuts, not to mention free doctor checkups.
But the biggest perk may come with the morning commute.

Working at Google isn't just a job; it's a cult. Funny, I've heard the same thing about Apple.
The story is about the big bus system that Google offers its disciples. I find it especially interesting that this seems to be the way of the world for all the big Internet players, including Yahoo, e-bay, Intel, Oracle, and Microsoft.
Oh, mommas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys; let them be doctors, lawyers, and software engineers and such...
