Our entire company is over half engineers. We work hard, and we play hard. We get back to work. Our employee growth garners yearly awards (20+% typically), as do our corporate growth. We are cutting edge. I take a couple breaks every day, and even have a little fun at lunch. We have showers. My boss likes me. I get things done. I affect change. What do you change other than the smell of the air within twenty feet of you? I get back to work, and pop on some old 50's big band era music with which to work by. If your retarded, one track at a time mind can't grasp that, I am very sorry for your lackings.

Totally delusional fiction- think Golden Gate Bridge or some other means to put yourself out of misery.
