My very first job was working for an airline reservation company. The company was on the East Coast, but we were in Denver, so we stopped getting many calls after 7 or 8PM. So we did what any reasonable group of people would do in that situation. We installed Warcraft 2 on our computers and got paid to LAN. The game even had a pause function, which we had to use on the off chance we got a phone call.
