Me watching students taking months to develop absolutely amazing portfolio character pieces, knowing that my folio is just stuff that took times clients are willing to pay for.
"Wow, this kid is really good"
"Yeah, you should see what I can manage when you actually give me six weeks to do something."
That's cool kid, but what can you do in three days with a producer breathing down your neck on substandard machines and a ten year old license of Maya because your department is under funded?
Also... get ready for that kind of existence. Because capitalism is a bitch.
Gamedev.
Also... folio being at least 3 years out of date because of NDAs. :)

Uh, hello? Medusa? I am sorry to bother you if you are in here. My name is Perseus and I wonder if you would be so kind to help me? I heard about the horrible thing Athena did to you, so I have this realy nice mask you may like to wear while we eat this picnic I bought.
I don't want to trouble you, but the whole turning to stone power? Well that would be amazing help to bring down this horrible dictator. It would really help the people, and I am sure we arrange a lovely share of the rewards if you like.
I brought wine and spanakopita and mice
I will put in a great word with Zeus if you help, and, who knows? Maybe he might get Athena to turn you back?
Racists have ya... yunno... ever tried not being racist? It opens up literally a whole world of experiences and friendships you would otherwise miss out on.
When you have grown up in a culture that constantly bombards you with racism, choosing to challenge that in yourself is a powerful act of self definition. You have to become much more self aware, willing to apologise, recognise fault in yourself and change.
Racism is *everywhere* from video game selection menus to casual slang terms, from childrens rhymes and old sayings. Every TV show, advert, book, game you play has racism woven in to some degree. A thousand small cuts a day.
