You could have just said that. It distracts from your message. I've worked at too many companies where hack job losers stuck around 5, 10, 15 years, insulating themselves with low enough pay and job security by not sticking out, keeping their head down, and creating an environment that breeds passive leeches. These lifers would create enough mess that would eventually be cleaned up by people who could read a man page instead of a Medium article and who eventually left for greener pastures because they too were interested in creating good work. You can be technically excellent and have enough brains to pay attention to the CPI-W. Records profits from corporates aren't for you and me, they're for the businesses themselves.
