> most if not all software companies require work that's less research/depth in nature and more planning/organizing/breadth in nature I wish I could say just pick the work that is more R&D in nature and avoid 'secretary' work, but you obviously don't have that choice. Personally I love anything along the lines of Lockheed's 'Skunk Works'[0] program. Pure R&D and risky too, because you don't know if it will work. F7ck around and find out is my mantra.
