We asked one of our co-op students, Mike Wu, to give us both a glimpse into life at Gossamer Threads as a relative newcomer, as well as what his work as a Quality Assurance Analyst entails. What follows is a story of bugs, barbecue and Big Two…
Gossamer Threads doesn’t just provide hosting for the David Suzuki Foundation, we’re also fans of their work. While we’re happy with our green roof and green composting and commuting habits, we’re always open to finding new ways to make GT a more environmentally-friendly company. Keen to hear more ideas, we invited some folks/Gayle from the David Suzuki Foundation to visit and plan out some new ways to make GT greener.
Gossamer Threads’ commitment to environmental sustainability doesn’t begin and end with our fabulous green roof, no siree Bob. Currently, we’re up to our elbows in worms.
You heard us, worms.
As part of Gossamer Threads’ ongoing commitment to sustainability, we’ve partnered with our landlord DeeCorp and fellow tenant TBWA\ to create a green roof on the building of our new office.
At the time, there was not much happening up on that flat tar & gravel expanse, but that was all to change soon enough!
