Volpe-
I apologize, as it appears I completely misunderstood what you were saying when you talked about awkwardness. Further it appears that we're not too far apart in our perspective and that you were making a characterization in general that I interpreted as specific towards jobs. I missed that you were spring boarding from what I said to a broader comment, and though you were disagreeing with what I said and making a specific comment.
I think I agree with your broader comment, and agree that in the extreme it can be a dangerous talent.
