That sounds like a curse!
I would be afraid of turning into a "Jared" -- a corporate mascot for life.
And reading the fine print of the contest, it all boils down to who calls an 800 number within a 5 min. span with the answer -- and if others call, you have to complete a tie-breaker puzzle that they call you about... blah blah. Very complicated.

I'm desperate to get puzzles #1 and #4. I sent in for them but I may have missed the postmark deadline. I'll try the local Starbucks tomorrow. Thanks for the idea.
