San Francisco police told Polygon that officers responded to Unity’s San Francisco office “regarding a threats incident.” A “reporting party” told police that “an employee made a threat towards his employer using social media.” The employee that made the threat works in an office outside of California, according to the police statement.

    The CEO and his cronies don’t understand that people work for more than money. They think all people come into work just to do what is required to get money or, if there is ambition, to rise through the ranks and make more money or have ideas that make more money.

    However, there are people, especially in projects like this, that are also there because they believe in something. Believe that they can help creating something special that helps people. Unity has it’s dominance among other things because it’s an easy to use and easy to learn tool that enables people to create games that would’ve otherwise had trouble getting into development.

      Be passionate about your work! Right up to the point where you start disagreeing with how I am bastardising it… then you can fuck off.

        Are you working something you hate?

        A lot of people are fine working what they love for a company, surely there are issues, but not all companies are batshit and ruin their product.

          It’s not so black and white though. Passion jobs are often exploited because people will put up with it more and there is higher demand for those types of jobs.

          Your best bet is to find something that is interesting and nice enough to keep you content and not bored to death but not so enthralling that you feel like working unpaid overtime or what ever. Bonus points if it’s paid relatively well.
