What a great idea! I think that the companies that allow employees to fraternize understand that this is the best way to keep employees satisfied and content to stick around. A rough day at work will always be rough, but it may not be the stick that breaks the camel's back if you have a friend at work to laugh about it with.
I agree that training is very important & that's a great example of a company that understanding this.
Although seems to have less & less in-house or course training given to most in the last few year & there is actually less incentive for companies to do so. The other day, I saw a stats that says 70% of new grads leave their first job within 2 years.

My bright idea of the day - Follow Up. So incredibly important to the development of yourself, your project, your ambitions, your ideas. Without doubling back, checking in, building on your work, nothing will really get accomplished. More...
