@Capn_Happy Yikesssssss. What industry/country?

@Capn_Happy Whoa. I naively assumed the UK would be way more supportive, especially in a government job. Ugh.

@Capn_Happy Yeah there’s trade offs for sure. We were pretty intentional about having Real Benefits when we started the company.

@Silent0siris @StephanFrost This goes against (or maybe in favor of?!) @StephanFrost's other thread - but I'd go back to working on MMOs in a heartbeat (much to the constant grimacing of my co-founders). It's been long enough that now it's all nostalgia and no memory of the pain.

@StephanFrost @Silent0siris Nah... those parts had the best / most ridiculous things. "Hey, so you get no resources, but need to figure out a way to apologize to players for a screwup." "Uh... how about we take some existing monsters and shrink them down and call them 'pack monsters'?" "SHIP IT!"

@ahl @keithmadams @far33d This is how I have "adjusted" to the world of Slack! "I'm a dinosaur and don't get the kids these days. I'll just have producers wrangle anything that actually needs me."

@ahl @keithmadams @far33d I uh... legit had some dumb bridge like this after the IRC servers stopped being a thing. :(

@ahl @keithmadams @far33d I'm just glad that I'm not the only relic here!
