I have another friend who is quite successful. His screen name is Southack. His successes mirror or exceed your own. Yet I wish him nothing but continued success. Do you know why? It is because he is humble and is not completely self-absorbed.

I have admired a number of Southack's cogent analyses, and I supect that his personal and business success is foreign to the "beggar-thy-neighbor" politics-of-resentment hair-shirt you prefer to wear.

Shed the sack-cloth and the woe-is-me and the perverted desire you harbor, which hopes to make yourself look good or feel better at someone else's expense, or failure -- Career mistake #4 --. Career success for you stands a long way off with an attitude like that.

If you are looking for my failure, you'll have a long wait. Why don't you crawl out from behind that rock of fear from which you spitball success (your own included), and finally after 17 years in your career you can get to work on earning some successes you can truly call your own.

Let's see....diapers, bottoms, brown lips, and tootsie rolls. Someone's a tad obsessed with something.

Nonsense. I bear no resentment for success, as I have repeatedly mentioned. I only dislike people who exhibit personal character flaws that you have demonstrated on this thread.

You also seem to imagine things outright. In which post did I say 'woe is me' or don a sack-cloth? I am actually doing quite well financially right now. My concern is for my fellow Americans. That would be a foreign concept to you.... (exaggerated pause) .... a foreign concept.

I call all of my present successes my own.

You really need to work on your skills relating to people. Have you considered therapy?

You know, Agamemnon, Laz is right. You are a sorry excuse for a human being. You're lack of empathy for the other 98% of the American public who are not cut out to be CEO's of their own companies or earn six figures, or who just want to do their day's job and go home and take care of family and friends and neighborhoods and little league teams and all the rest that keeps our contry running is pretty goddamned disgusting. I am not one of those folks, but guess what - they are the guys who are the pillars of our community who hold our society together and not a nerd PhD biochemist who spends 18 hrs a day running his own company however big the exponent on his salary. And don't get me wrong. My life and background is a lot closer to yours than you think or know. The differnce between us is that you think you are a better human being than everyone else out there, and I know better.
