Sometimes you wonder why we do this job.

I do not realistically think that everyone is going to not work these games. That is silly to even expect that. But I hate it when you tell someone you do not want to work those games is for the money, then you get the self-righteous rants about we have a bigger responsibility to the game.....blah....blah.....blah!!!
