Oh Michael I love this. It seems we are made for the dumb hard stuff and we glory in it.
There’s some of that challenge up where the carpet starts but mostly it’s go along, get along, make the day and cash the check…I did it but it wasn’t the same. Great story!
Job satisfaction, especially self-acknowleged. is the key to happiness and success. Wages are a distant second, IMHO. Exceeding the client's expectations keeps the phone ringing. Exceeding your OWN expectations keeps your heart ringing.
Brilliant insight, Michael! There's definitely a satisfying kick to be had when successfully completely a challenge no one really expects or hopes you to be able to do. Gotta say though, I'm thankful the work-
related challenges I've faced were not death-defying.

Thanks, Andy — I’m glad (and gratified) that this one resonated!

Well put, as always!

Glad the joint held!
Thanks, Deb — and me too!
