I'd imagine it's difficult to start your own law firm, but hopefully you can get it working out.<br /><br />I was thinking about the whole "working for somebody else for 50 years" thing.. and again, I miss the broader point. For most people in the world, that would be paradise.. at least the American version of it where you can actually earn a living wage if you put some effort into it.<br /><br />I spent the entire day Thursday, maybe 6 or 7 hours I guess, working on one very specific piece of logic to fix a problem with a data import. Used to be when I came up with really clever solutions to things like that, I'd be impressed with myself and felt like I'd actually done something kind of cool. This time, I was annoyed with how long it took to test the solution, and the very lengthy email I had to write documenting the problem and solution.<br /><br />It's got to be a mid life crises. I'm guessing that a lot of people flip out when they figure out that they're 45 and what they're doing is all they're going to do.<br /><br />I need to figure out something else I can do on the side. I think I can write.. so maybe try writing a novel.. even if it's a bad one, that might be something worth while.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17564526640395324075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9996771.post-79451404880252808472011-11-04T16:18:04.143-05:002011-11-04T16:18:04.143-05:00"The point of that is that he is determining ..."The point of that is that he is determining his own future and not beholden to the benevolence of somebody else".<br /><br />I'm desperate to get my business going.
