No matter how much time you put in at work one year, ten years, thirty years... you’re forgotten 5 min after you walk out the door.

Do that repeatedly and watch the water level.

"No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend's,
Or of thine own were:
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee."

John Donne

The plain truth is we can all be replaced. Time marches on.


I quit one time when I was a head builder and the swing shift supervisor. I visited the boss one time. He told me they had to hire three people to do what I used to do. Replaceable? Yes, but at a cost.

Skilled labor is hard to find, that's why morons are moved to management.
