At the end of the day I sell computers. How glamourous is that? It's nice to say though, puts everything in its place. I don't know why people get so emotionally involved in their jobs. It's understandable if you work in some lab and are curing some disease and with one slip they could wipe out the population. They have a lot to invest, but think of the joy felt when they achieve a goal.



Am I really going to feel that much better about myself if my company sells more or less. Not at all. It's hard to get emotionally invested. This must be why companies make you financially invested with their stock options and performance bonuses. Without those, who would care. Except the few of who feel satisfied by a job well done.
