I have yet to have this feeling for a company that I work at, but I do remember having this feeling for an online gaming "clan", back in the day. On battle.net, for Diablo, people would make clans and just game together, and eventually war other clans, etc. It was normal to "clan hop" around and join basically every clan until you're in the best clan. I remember the day when a friend and I jokingly joined what we thought was going to be a lame no-name clan, and we had intentions of sneakily doing something as members of that random clan. Turns out that we really enjoyed that clan and stayed with it. I remember the strange change of perspective that I had on clans when I realized that the clan I had joined was so enjoyable that it was without a doubt going to be better than any other clan out there, in my opinion. Because of that enthusiasm for the clan, we all ended up sticking together and ended up being like one of the longest lasting and well known clans of that time period. We moved off of battle.net and onto our own IRC server which we've all been on, every day, since like 2001. It's awesome what that kind of realization can lead to, if given the chance.
