Over the decades, it has shown me the kind of person I simply don't want to be.

The experience makes me want to be a better person -- at least better than what I've seen.

It has also convinced me that I never want to be a manager again or supervisor or responsible for others -- since, in the "Moral Mazes" of cubical cities these days, it is a lose-lose proposition.

Give me technology any time and let me work with that without the drama of politics for the benefit of others.
