I mean, its all creativity for me. Problem solving with creativity to make something greater than the sum of it's parts. When you're working 12 hours a day and thinking about how to make more efficient algorithms it certainly wears on you. However, it's exciting to see a project that started out as an idea become something playable.
Then again the way things have been going, once the project is up we'll probably all be fired

i call my discounts "playa prices"
i have a full time job but my part time job is at an electronic store that shall be named nameless
the discounts are good, especially on clearance items..almost 40-50% off the markdown prices for employees
my coworker bought a macbook pro for stupid cheap just for winning the most customer service surveys.
networking = it's all about who you know! i've let several friends use my discount and they've helped me used their discounts on their end (mortgages, clothing, shoes, etc)
