As a fellow Unity employee, I feel that right down to my bones. If the job market for software devs didn't suck so hard, I would have left a while ago. Compartmentalization is the only coping mechanism I have to keep myself going.

Thanks, friend, you too. And remember, best ideas win... unless you happen to know what you're doing.
