I have also been a games tester, for a summer ('98) just after finishing uni. The programmers worked 24-7, with brief dashes home to change pants etc (several would sleep under their desks as a matter of course); so we were told to be there as much as possible and we'd get paid £5 an hour. I took this literally and would frequently do 20 hour shifts, 7 days a week. Facilities in the office included a shower, a tuck shop, a pool table, the net, a good selection of games (Ps1 as was the fashion at the time), and the boss would buy anyone in the office at 8pm a takeaway. We got so used to smoking spliffs out the front door that I took to skinning up at my desk... bliss. Managed to save up £700 in a few months which later got me moved to London where I still am, 11 years later.
