I love this. It's well-written, funny, and apparently it worked. It also fits quite well with how I like to see the world... (The following is kinda a side note...) Some time ago, a friend told me "You are so lucky! You never apply anywhere - Companies come to your and ask you if you want to work for them!" Which is not entirely true, I do apply for projects, but... I have been working as an independent consultant for almost 10 years now. And creating a steady stream of business is crucial for my survival. So I spend a lot of time - more than some are willing to spend on their hobbies - to make sure as many people as possible know me - and that they know what I can and what I cannot do for them. Also, that the right people know me. I'm still not as good as it as I would like. But sometimes, good jobs "just" come to me. I can just tell you: It still requires a lot of work from my side. This work just doesn't include writing job applications / RFPs.
