hmm, did i remember to tell you how much fun this job is?
did i already mention how much fun this job is?
oh.. i did. twice in this post :p
well, if u're looking it from another perspective, this is the most horrible job you can ever find. since i'm an idealist who has a "distorted" kind of view of this world, i think it's pretty much fun. makes you think, though it gives you headache. never mind the headache, pain builds character ;)
to thrive in this job, u just need to hold on to three principles :
murphy's law governs everything. if you don't believe in murphy's law, or you have doubts with that law, quit this job.
this is the kind of job where once you solve a problem, another 3 crops out. and those three are even more difficult than the one you solved. (sometimes it makes you wish you didn't solve the previous problem)
your job description : perform magic. nothing else but magic.
that's it. oh, to add to the first one: something queer about murphy's law. it seems to happen more when you're in an important deal, or just before a demo. when that happens, the weak falters and the strong.. oh.. the strong.. the strong ones will think twice about whether he/she is really that strong, hehe ;)
