So one day I'd had enough, I couldn't stand it anymore, I was tired of battling all day with people who thought their 'little' tweak would have no repercussions whatsoever. Being a UI guy isn't just producing UIs, it also requires negotiating with lots of people, at least at Iris it did, which was the part I liked the least about the work."

But "to act normal" is the definition of the lemming to jump off the cliff. :)
