STRANGER: So what do you do for a living?
ME: I'm a video game designer/writer, working on #LONG_DELAYED_GAME_YOU_HEARD_ABOUT_MAYBE_ONCE.
STRANGER: OH COOL I can't wait for #GAME_WITH_SIMILAR_NAME!
ME: Actually I work for #CRUMMY_COMPANY on #LONG_DELAYED_GAME_YOU_KIND_OF_REMEMBER_NOW. They sure do sound alike, don't they? Ha, ha!
STRANGER: <sound of crickets> I have to go now.
ME: Call me? *sob*
I have a friend who works for Blizzard. He wears WoW T-shirts every day and, when at the grocery store, he will find a way to mention how he works for Blizz to the checker AND the bagger. (I can't blame him--I'd do the same.) I, on the other hand, don't wear company shirts outside the house because they put me at high risk for brick attacks from strangers. I sure liked working there though!
