And women wonder why men can be a bit confused about what to do...
@thor The feminization of men is to blame. My mother met my father in the hospital after he got in a car wreck. He did out run the cops successfully but got hit by a van.
Impulse control is low in my family. They feel in love thanks to decisions that modern society frowns upon. It's a shame that America is in such a state.
@AmpBenzScientist Poor impulse control is modern name for following your heart, which has gone out of fashion.
@thor I certainly have followed my passions. There are just so many things to be passionate about.
The modern world just uses passionate people to grind into nepotistic paste. The only jobs I had that didn't grind me down were working on equipment and doing IT work. I miss them both but it always felt like I was pissing my life away at it.
On the other hand, I can always keep doing what I find fulfilling in my own time. That's one of the reasons why I'd rather just work on and with heavy equipment. They can't own my mind. If I find something that could assist the operation, I'll make sure to make a money pit of a reverse engineering task.
@AmpBenzScientist I'm looking at working in healthcare. I've realised that my sharp mind can be applied toward a nobler goal than computers. I can understand people, places, objects and social relationships using the same analytical abilities that made me a good computer programmer, but with much more meaning.
@thor I hope you enjoy it.
@AmpBenzScientist It's easy enough to accommodate for those with low impulse control, but it tends to be unpopular with everybody else.
