The only thing more vomitable than the smell and taste of gin is the smell and taste of gin being vomited. "I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out of focus monster roaming the countryside. Run." -Mitch Hedberg

When I left the Navy I wanted to be a wildlife biologist working with big predators. Lions or tigers or my personal favorite, wolves. Well I got into graduate school and did ok, but all the research people at that level (think Western Kentucky University) were doing was with mice. Dirty stinkin' BORING mice. I have a M.S. in biology but have never held a biology job because I refused to work with mice. In computer terms, the BORING stuff is Excel. The exciting stuff is web design, HTML, and graphics. Bet you'd have 100 qualified applicants if you tested by asking them to Photoshop your drunk uncle Patrick out of a wedding photo. "I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem.

Passion? You believe everyone should be passionate about their work? And that passion defines quality? You imply that ones without a passion for their work are inferior in work quality simply by lack of passion? Passion and pride go hand in hand and can undermine the quality of work. Pride goeth before a fall, they say. Believe it or not, few people in life get to pursue a passion. Most of us are driven by circumstance into whatever "career" path we "choose". There are exceptions, certainly, but those are just that - exceptions. Me, I'd rather skip the passion and go with someone competent.
