Changing Work Environment

[alexxkay]

My work environment has been gradually changing. I'm not just referring to physically, although we *are* moving to new quarters over the weekend. But the emotional character of the environment is changing. It's not remotely what I'd call "mature" yet, but it is gradually moving in that direction. I actually got a *sympathy card*, signed by most of the team. I don't think *that* would have happened before we had a female producer on the project. And the indirect female influence on the company is also steadily increasing. Of the game design team, 4 out of the 5 of us are married, and the fifth has his wedding scheduled for September. Two of us even have small children. The rest of the company isn't quite so uniformly domestic, but definitely moving in that direction. Feels good.
