"Where there's no sense, there's no feeling". The words, I am told, of my father's maternal grandmother. It is strange to feel such an intense kinship and to inhabit so closely the mind space of a woman who I have never met.
Perhaps I'm merely feeling my age. But while I suspect Cisco will eventually be disappointed, my emotional state remains a profound void. There is no feeling.
I reserve empathy instead towards those at Cisco who chose rightly in life. They get to work, they do the job, they return home, they feed their family bread. Please endure the 'vision' of your corporate masters. You have already arrived and your destination is good.
When I was young I was told the book of Ecclesiastes was depressing. But with age I see it as a book of hope. Your job is pointless and that will never change regardless of your token burn rate. Enjoy your family as the sun sets.
