A friend of mine was a video game producer for about 15 years... kinds sounds like his job?? Except he was a dad and not a gym rat, YMMV.

Yes, I said "producer" not "coder", not "artist", not "tester". Much less brutal in management.

Not true at all in my experience. Producers/managers have very tough jobs as well.
