5th day

Hello everyone, this was a very eventful day because we went to San Francisco that day. The company's that we visited that day were Square, Spoke, and Moovweb. Driving in San Francisco was tough because we had twelve person van driving through traffic to find a parking spot. The first company we visited Square is a credit card processing application company. What I found interesting at Square was one of the interviewing process they use fro people with an IT background is that they give you sample problem of code that you can fix. The next company Spoke that is a startup that's been around under a year. Spoke is a help desk platform that give information to customers on a certain question and Spoke would tell you who would have that information or it would send you somewhere that has the information you need. the last company we visited was Moovweb another startup. Moovweb helped other companies websites and helping them transition to a mobile devices. After visiting all of the companies we were able to have some free time in San Francisco. We were dropped off by Fishermans Wharf we walked around the docks and check out the scenery. The cool site I saw was probably Alcatraz I didn't think it would be that close. After walking through Fishermans Wharf some of us took a Lyft to Haight Ashberry. it was a interesting place a lot of people and places to see. We stopped at pizza place and grabbed a couple slices which was really good. Then we went to Twin Peeks that gave a us a beautiful 360 view of the San Francisco area. After that we stopped by a food truck area in Mission St. and got something to eat we also talked to someone that worked at one of the food trucks. She used to work at Square and she was also from Massachusetts. Another thing I got to do was drive a dasharound it a vehicle that looks like an animal I got to drive the horse was called Ed. We then left San Francisco two Lyft drivers wouldn't take us back to Palo Alto because it was to far but the third driver was able to take us back. it was a very interesting day but all in all it was good day.
