Welcomed to The Hootsuite Nest by , #HigherEd Community Manager, I sidled up to my desk digs for the day: complete with nameplate, crown and owl to keep me company.

Little did I know there was an afternoon Guac-Off in the works...
After a morning spent brainstorming brands doing cool activations in social media and talking about companies who have rad swag, Director of CommunityÌýÌýand I headed out for some of 's Najib's Special.
Armed with a full belly, Destin and I peeked in at all the amenities The Nest boasts for its employees: meeting space tents, private meeting rooms with names like "Burrowing" and "Spectacled" to satisfy the worker owls andÌýcommunal kitchen picnic tables, beer AND wine on tap, foosball + table tennis, a gym, yoga studio and of course, "The Cabin" napping room to keep up social creativity. We topped off the tour with a naturally tree dotted view of downtown, the North Shore mountains, and stretching all the way east; the rooftop, it's perfect for perching.
Turns out, a workday at Hootsuite could not be complete without #beeroclock, especially when the very recently opened Ìýis located just across the street. We loaded up onÌýceramic growlers filled with 33 Acres brand new Sunshine French Blanche to share with the team back at the nest.

After getting a glimpse behind the curtain of what's coming up for Hootsuite (exciting stuff!), and an impromptu 1:1 with Director Of MarketingÌý, I was invited to partake in the annual Guac-Off, where like it sounds, teams come up with creative guacamole recipes like "dessert guac."
