If your company wants you badly enough, you can get some pretty exotic conditions in your hiring contract -- including a desk made entirely out of LEGOs. An unnamed Seattle firm hired LEGO maven Eric Harshbarger to build a fully-functional desk, with six large drawers and one small, weighing in at over 50 kilos and using over 35,000 bricks. Note that Eric's now pretty much out of the LEGO biz, saying, "I'm not quite to the point that I'll rule out all commissioned projects, but I am really only doing commissions that truly spark my interest." Alas, a master departs. [GT]
