Taking Microsoft's Money

This evening I went to a weird focus group thing at some marketing office in the big Montgomery Park building. Everyone in the group sells stuff online, so it was about webstores and what we already have, want/need, etc. It was semi-interesting, but the imaginary product we were discussing is something I would never need because etsy is awesome and gives me everything I want. At the end they told us that it was all for a Microsoft product. Hah! I would never use it based on that alone. They recorded audio, video, and watched us behind two-way mirrors. So dramatic. For my 90 minutes, they gave me $150 and I also won a sweet draw for an extra $50. I WIN!
