Hey, that's pretty cool about your job. I just finished a really funny book about computer game programmers, called 'jPod', by Douglas Coupland. It's about a tiny department in a gaming company that was formed because of a blip in the system that put six people doing unrelated jobs together because they all have surnames beginning with J. It's quite brilliantly weird.
Do we really work such long hours? Dammit. Well, when I was temping I did 37.5 hours per week, not including the unpaid lunch break. But now I do 37 hours including lunch, and... like... 30 hours not including it. *shamed*
