Pushin' the old envelope of corporate life

So I played Pente with T in the kitchen over lunch. The table was full of other people eating lunch and there was much astonished talk of "you're playing a game?" and "whoa... are they really going to play a game?" Yes, you poor timorous newbies on the field of life, this is how confident employees act at a decent company, and we're going to act that way here just for the hell of it. T's manager, one of the cool ones, was sitting and watching the game with interest so I don't think we have too too much to worry about, but we admit the possibility of a "no games at work" email coming down from the top now. We have agreed to laugh at this if it occurs.

And oh yeah, I won, even after letting him take back a losing move midway through the game. *smirk*
