I have a "privilege" working on maya for some time now and I can't remember when I was this nerve wreck I am today. I do lighting mainly and I walk out home brain dead every day. This sophisticated torture they call hypershade and node editor and the choices they made making it, is mind blowing. Looking back I find working with 3ds Max a pleasure (which it wasn't).
Si in comparison is a caress I don't deserve.
