When you're engaged in a project, like the designing of a filtration system, you contemplate the layout, the components, how things connect, what heuristics one can apply, tangential pressure gradiations, and on and on. It's a fresh use of one's mind. When the week or month is over, you feel a sense of accomplishment and even if the project gets scrapped or fails miserably, there's still this lingering feeling of time well spent, exercising one's mind.

On the other hand, talking to idiot portfolio managers, tax consultants, and other hucksters, all of the time, I find myself wanting to go nuts half the time. I have to scream and shout Deep Purple songs (ok, silently in my head when ppl are around), fantasize about large b@@bs on my face, and so on. There's no sense or feeling of satisfaction in my daily life. I believe I've developed Chronic Madness Syndrome and it's a direct result of a former STEM person, interacting with jackasses in the financial services sector, in a mindless way.

Think Financial Engineering . . . how to screw the most people for most amount of money while at least culpability to yourself. LOL. Glad you are wrapping up there soon.

I really hope I could speed up time.

I had a recent CMS meltdown where I went catatonic, dreaming about transforming into a dog, howling and barking during Ritchie Blackmore's Solo Concerto.

Fortunately, I snapped out of it in time for a meeting. But it was a close call, I was almost caught. I can see what happened to Jekyll & Hyde, back in those days.

And yes, knowing me, I wanted to stick my c*ck in the mouth of that British babe in the audience at 5:08

But no, we're stuck in this crappy place called America. When I was getting all fired up during my trip Down Under, I'd left the office for 'an errand' and got myself a quickie at a brothel. I was very productive for the rest of the day.

2008 was the epic chance to reduce this overweight sector containing a lot of turds to a fraction and only leaving people who actually know a thing or two about risk management and hedged accordingly by prosecuting those who committed clear cut fraud and letting those fail too inept to manage their business for their clients. Even simply doing nothing would have cleared most of the pompous idiot slack. Now look what they did instead, they bailed out and rewarded the fraudsters and failures at the expense of the taxpayers. How do you think people are supposed to recognize the importance of STEM when looking at their government for guidance?

We're way past that point. Today, STEM ppl need to be financially independent and not dependent on a paycheck from either academic or corporate America.

The entire system is a complete failure. We need brilliant, but independently wealthy ppl, to help revive society.

There's no point in ppl lying about this, anymore. If you're STEM but need a company to pay your rent, then you're that company's b*tch, nothing more.

Yes, what managers want are STEM ppl who don't need instruction and do as they're told.

Jazz you really crack me up. They don't hire people based on how desperate employees are for a job, but on what their qualifications are.
That's how employers make money. The right candidate for the right job.

There's also the aspect where the manager a/o dept chief needs to maintain the same chain of command. So a perfectly qualified candidate may still get rejected over a *right* candidate, whom the manager doesn't fear replacing him.

Very posible. A company still needs to hire the right candidate for the right job. What Jazz tries to always imply is companies exploit everyone, and hire the most exploitable candidate, which is nonsense for jobs requiring high skills in the technology field. I understand there are some companies that want you to work like hell, but the pay is pretty good too, which cannot be exploitation. Even blue collar workers have laws protecting them against exploitation, but to some people like Jazz, they are always exploited.

Hey @rin why don't you get a nice icon/logo. There are lots of pictures of pretty escorts. You can have a daily pick.

Are you saying madness caused by smoking Chronic? Perhaps errc can find something for you that is not quite so pathological, in causing this madness.

Not bad, Rin. Go ahead, tell us how she tortured you?

She was suppose to introduce a friend, "Lola", an expert in Menage-A-Trios. Never happened. I think she moved back to Nova Scotia or New Brunswick, before the great gathering could occur.

In comparison, the current Nova Scotian regular is kinda a bore, no original ideas or anything.

You know, you could train them and charge big bucks for it. After all it's the customer who knows best.

Here are the current rules for the Great White North ... no communication for the sake of the boink.

So my evaluation of the 1st Nova Scotian (or New Brunswick-ian) is this, she was sweet, esp her mouth.

The thing is just as you said in another thread, STEM jobs suck. They used to be a stable life with a decent retirement at the end of it, and now they aren't. A social infrastructure was built up around guys working these dependable jobs, having houses, wives, kids, the whole schmeal. Remember "My Three Sons?" well Fred MacMurray

Ask yourself this question ... why have I opted out? Instead of actually having relationships, settling down with some *soulmate*, and all that jazz, I'd instead, decided to get a sort of annuity package out of this hedge fund work, and spend the rest of my days, banging hoes in Australia, Brazil or Thailand?

Here's why ... the American dream is over. Those who still believe in it, are a bunch of suckers.

You see the impact of all this financialization and deregulation is that marriages won't happen, kids don't get born, houses and cars don't get bought, communities don't get settled. What a mess!

All because of deregulation. he he he he he.

jazz music says

There are qualifications and then there are qualifications. The right candidate today is increasingly the one who will settle for lowest pay, and is desperate (with kids) that he begs for a job and therefore will be squeezed to yield about 2 men's work right up until they can cut him.

Which foolish employer would fire someone who can do the job of 2 people? he he he he he.
Jazz, you are too funny. :)

She is hot. Hey Rin, if you have leased her, would you consider subleasing her for a weekend?

No problems, she not an exclusive Sugar Baby but unfortunately, she's gone back to either Nova Scotia or New Brunswick. Obviously, she doesn't want a former *acquaintance* to find her in some yoga class in Halifax, so she's kept her hometown details obscured. Ok, you've got a lot of land to cover over there, good luck with the search.

Now, I've got the more mundane Nova Scotian, who's actually interested in a Sugar Daddy/Sugar Baby fling but I ain't interested.

BTW, there already a slew of hotties in the Quebec province. You don't need to scour the Atlantic coast.
