True, I guess one could say that in a way they were correct in that it is technically still a dream to work at a company like EA, just a very bad, very hellish dream. Possibly made much worse by the self-gaslighting (and regular gaslighting) making them think it's actually a good dream, makes it even worse because you don't try to escape it because you convince yourself and are convinced by others you have it good when in reality, you don't.
