If you want to talk to tradesmen, a good option is going to their union and asking for someone. That invites a fuckton of bias of course but... if you getting low on ideas it's a shot. You'll want to talk to an apprentice (not a brand new one) or possibly longtime journeyman and develop a rapport with them so theyll eventually not give you a bullshit PR answer that makes it seem like heaven.

Carpenters, plumbers, electricians, shipwrights, longshoremen, Teamsters, ironworkers, engineers, Boilermakers, machinists. All trades and if in the right place at the right time can make a very good living. You'll never be rich but also you'll never have people in school lieing to you about how you can make 80,000 immediately out of college as a programmer (have fun in tech support unless you have a stellar resume and git profile).

I know at many restaurants if theres an issue like a clogged overflowing toilet or vomit everywhere, usually it's a manager (kitchen manager of course) that'll clean it up unless it's a tight crew who wont quit.

Trying to send the lowest on the totem pole to clean up that stuff is liable to start a mutiny.

Out of curiosity, what is the stigma about unity?

I mean you can make legit, great professional games with it right? I'm no game developer or honestly even a huge fan of video games period, so I dont know what the so called 'word on the street' is. I will say I fucked around with unity a bit and it was kinda very friendly, which may be part of the knock against it.

Yeah that's kinda what I was thinking, something along those lines. Basically it could (or I guess HAS?) encourage a proliferation of halfassed flash games flooding the market.
