I actually love work. There I feel challanged, but at the same time I also feel experienced. I know something about what I do, and what I dont know I enjoy figuring out. Here, I dont know. I have little experience, and I am more or less out of my element beyond my interest. I would have to say that I have a passion for both, but that I find work reassuring in the sense that I have skills and a language I know well. I will say that I find it amazing how much of what I read here has enriched the way I think about what I do there. There is no direct route to this. I have an odd mind, and this in part is how its worked out.
More personal effort in audiogon or our jobs?
Just wondering how many of you put more effort in learning more about audio gear, music, and forums versus your occupations. How many of you think more indepth about this passionate hobby and its gains to be had vs. what is to be gained from your jobs? Yep, I'm hooked and am always on a quest to learn more unlike my burn out medical job. Guess its time for a career change.
