I did my under graduation in Electronics and Communications, and at the end of 4 years, I ended up learning more about computers and programming than about circuits, transistors, signal processing and communication theory. I wish that somebody would write some "Head First" books for non computer science related subjects. The existing textbooks, IMO, cause a lot of brain damage.

One thing for sure is that is where most of the opportunities are. I know many people who initially took this filed for money and for opportunities and later as and when they started gaining experience, they saw satisfaction in what they did. You should have asked yourself this question when you started your career. Ofcourse you now will have many reasons like love...writing code...debugging and so on....

Tis the season for wood heat

I was standing in a cattle chute. My job was to persuade the cow in front of me to move forward where it would get shots and any other doctoring it might need. This was about cow #60 for the day. It was hot out but I was wearing long sleeve coveralls.
I was covered in shit. Possibly the only part of my that had no shit was the back of my head - but I never checked.
Cows like open pasture. They did the chute thing once a year and they did not like it. Being in the chute made them nervous. When nervous, they tended to get projectile diarrhea. Especially just before the part where they could stand and watch their buddy get shots, or maybe dehorned. And I was standing behind them at their most nervous spot.
About fifteen feet away was a big garbage can full of ice and sweet pepsi cola in glass bottles. At the age of 11 I rarely got to indulge in soda pop. So this was really difficult. During the spring roundup we were allowed to have all of the pop we wanted. But .... there was cow shit on my lips and all over my face. Since my hands were also covered in shit, I couldn't wipe the shit off of my face.
I had to wait until we were done and hope that there would still be some sweet pepsi cola.
So ... there was this moment ... where the cow in front of me seemed a bit calmer ... I let my mind drift .... I thought about how somewhere .... at that same moment ... there was a guy getting paid to sit on his butt in an air conditioned office, complete with the option of drinking sweet pepsi cola from a glass bottle. And then I thought: how does one get a job like that?
This is a 100% true story.
