> - few clever algorithms used in day-to-day work

With amount of time we spent on Big-O and multiple classes involving algorithms I thought that if I ever had to do this professionally I would spend all day cooking up all sorts of cool algorithms involving recursion and graphs. It turns out that the biggest fight I have in my day job is not that but herding people to pump out readable code that is relatively performant.
