Not sure I ever worked anywhere that had a formal HR department although now I'm a bit emeritus consultarse for projects that do.
I always enjoyed dull mundane stuff, pre dawn musters to launch and run calibration stacks up to 12,000 feet to compute cosmic parameters, jumping in to clear heli sites | landing strips, having to scale peaks to set mag|gps base stations.
All the fun and games of geophysical code development.

Never had the crashing of keyboards, because well mechanical keyboards are not cheep.
I do remember the "every OS sucks" song.

I was not aware of the song. Wow Thanks!
"Do you remember how amazed we were to crash a keyboard or two on each other backs? Do you remember us singing songs about Java while writing fake protocols?
What kind of fun did you use to have in your teams before the HR-organized joy of playing volleyball and drinking beer from PHP-shaped mugs."
None of those activities sound fun, but if I had to choose I'd take the HR organized volleyball and beer drinking.
