Gaming and IT: They're inversely proportional.

Post by Libra Monkee »

smart people need to find a certain amount of intellectual challenge from day to day. If they don't find it in their workplace, they'll end up playing complex, 'smart' games, like Civilization IV or Chess — and if they do find it in their workplace, they're more likely to sit down with a nice game of Pac-Man, Katamari Damacy, or Peggle
So THAT'S why I had so much fun with those confounded Raving Rabbids!
IT workers might subconsciously be giving themselves more challenges by choosing to deal with difficult problems, rather than performing simple (but boring) preventative maintenance and proactive network management.
No, I'm not guilty of this at all.

I will admit, I'm spending a fair amount of time with the orange box recently.

I was playing Fat Princess last night to release some stress. It works great!
