A friend of mine applied for a job in England as a QA tester, he came close to landing the job but lost out to some guy with a lot more experience who entered his application at the last minute. Just a while ago he found out the entire team including “the bastard who stole my job” had all been flown out to L.A. for E3!
Could be worse, Ivan, at least you are living the dream as a job as the level designer at one of Scotland’s biggest game development studios! :)
