It's always nice to see someone exercising artistic efforts. But as far as
this effort goes, in the end I think corporate environments are often too
solid to the point of being counter productive.
Fortunately not all corporations try to suppress the lighter side of life.
It's one thing to unprofessional, rude, crude etc. But another to enjoy
working in a real team where everyone enjoys doing what they do.
I prefer work to have the settings of a good game. Something where you band
together to overcome the barriers facing the company. Indeed, spirit of play
is the best attitude to be productive in. Seriousness have nothing to do with
important or responsible. But is often used to cover up the lack of poor
responsibility or lack of competence.
OpenBSD's CD covers represents to me the same spirit of play attitude, and the
pursuits of the enemies on your network.
