Yeah, we use CCL for local development and SBCL for running code on servers. I hear that the development story is better with CCL due to improved error messages but I'm not sure how much I agree with that, however we continue the practice because it ensures that we're writing portable code and aren't tied to a single implementation.

That sounds pretty cool. In my next life I'd love a Lisp job.

The old joke about lisp ruining all other languages holds true (at least in my experience), so it's a monkeys paw wish of yes, you get to work with lisp but you'll never be able to enjoy another job again.
