"Video games won't get you a job"

Somebody said that to me once, because they belived I spent too much time playing my Nintendo 64.

Here I am, all these years on. I'm a producer at a games studio, working on some incredible titles. I have a good income, 35 paid days off per year (plus bank holidays) with 14 paid sick days a year if I need them. I don't do "crunch" and I can work from home most of the time (thank you 2020).

I'd love to meet up the person who said that to me today, so I can show them.
