"We take afternoons off to play at the beach, play ultimate Frisbee in the park, go to the movies as a company, have Starcraft 2 nights, etc…"
Spoken like a true "jr engineer" the poster claims to be :) At some point in your life, that stuff just isn't very enticing.
Can people just go home and chill with their family while the rest of you go play frisbee, or will they be ostracized as 'not a team player' if they 'opt out' of afternoon movies/starcraft? A danger in that sort of activity is anyone who doesn't join in may (or will) eventually be left out of key business information.
Glad you found somewhere you enjoy working - keep it up!
