After watching a ton of video tutorials about "cut your own hair" I got the courage to buy an electric hair clipper set and try it. Some fails and fair rate of success. I already tried the fake bald style, Jarhead cut, and currently I’m trying the Peaky Blinders style. :-D

Let’s face it ! As programmers sometimes we get into worries so easy and by elements so vague that we forget to “always look on the bright side of the life”. [A stupid song], perfect for stupid depressions. My humble opinion…

dBase III+(Ashton-Tate) => SQL server Clipper(Nantucket Corp) => Visual Studio LANtastic => Windows 3.11 and now Active Directory Sad they're gone but a lot of programmers like me learned to develop database programs in a network environment with all the locks control that now is almost unnecessary. Good days... :-D

Just an non-technical opinion: Be pragmatic, => https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pragmatism …and do as your employer says. Think in your anal annual review, it will say “...grasps concepts quickly” :-D instead of “… needs improvement on taking orders” :( . Experience has teach me that I don’t have to lose my mind in minor details because every single employer sometimes will have a crazy idea and somehow they think that my “loyalty” is in doubt if I don’t do the same way they planned. BUT, you have to be aware of “suicide ideas”. i.e. ideas from your employer that will jeopardize either profits or real world operations. Then you have to show your point of view with clear numbers although finally they implement that suicide idea. In that case of frustration I recommend a couple of Samuel Adams or Molson Canadian. Crazy ideas (manageable ones) => Ok, do it. (Even when they sound a little crazy) Suicide ideas => Show clearly your point of view. (but don’t lose your mind if you are requested to implement) Only my humble point of view. :java:
