People have as many different veiwpoints on jobs as they do marriage. All equally valid. Some people are just happy to have a job. Others need their work to be meaningful in a way that is unique to them. Some people think it's worth it to spend a lot of time/money on getting to a specific point. Others need power and authority. Some need high return.
For me, regarding my marriage and my job choice, I need to be happy about what I'm doing. It needs to be meaningful and I am not ok with doing the same thing everyday or having the same results as everyone else. I simply refuse to settle. Maybe it's just a weird personality thing but I need more than just the appearance of having everything together and my bills getting paid. I'll take the long, less traveled road if it means I'm happy about waking up every morning. The article doesn't speak for me but I can certainly understand his point.
Plus, I love Mike Rowe. That man is propped pretty high on a pedestool in my book, not much unlike Peyton Manning. He can do no wrong and every word that comes out of his mouth does so at the tune of angels singing.
Yep, eye for an eye for that worthless, redneck ####.
Besides he shimmer sparkles. Can't say that about anybody else.
