Decisions, Decisions … Bad Decisions.
As I’ve spent most of my life in front of glowing CRT screen learning the intricacies of x86 assembly (Oh!.. the horror!) it has only recently come to my attention that I might lack a variety of important survival skills that are essential. For example, eating ice-cream for all 3 meals a day, over the labor day weekend might not keep you in the best of health, and more importantly, if the next day is your first day of officially starting work.
Another horryfying truth I learnt today was I make stupid decisions for reasons other than my own self interest. What is this life altering bad decision you ask? Well, I turned down a job offer that pays 3 times as much as my current job just because I consider my contributions, whatever they may be, important to my current employer and because I enjoy working with people there. And I haven’t even met anyone from my prospective employer I turned down. Sad … Isn’t it.. I probably will never learn.
