    Default Video Games at Work

    Well, it is December now and work around the dealership is getting pretty sparce. So I asked if I could bring in a 2600 to hook up to the tv in the break room, and my boss said sure. I figured the dealership is pretty small and I know everyone so I can part with one of my 2600's for work morale. I just thought I would share.

    I'll generally bring at least two consoles to work on holidays such as Christmas when we have a skeleton crew that's bummed to be there. Generally I'll take a couple of PSones, one of which has the LCD screen attached, hook up some authentic retro controllers, and get the classic goodness going.

    We have a PS2 hooked up in our rec room at work, but there's not really a gamer-friendly atmosphere. In that the room is always empty during the day, even at lunch. :/ Anyone want to join my company so I can have someone to play against in lunchbreak?

    Unless he works at home or is a bigwig with his own private bathroom at work all I can only say Ewwwww. Only once in my life have I had to take a dump in a public bathroom, and it scarred me for life.
