Something else

If I were to have an accident that would prevent me from reading for a year or more, I'd be completely left behind at work and most likely moved from the server room to the helldesk cage. There's so much new stuff that replaces the old and not-so-good-anymore stuff, that keeping up is a job itself.

I can survive my job most of the time, but sometimes it feels it's just too much.

Should I be preparing sausages, or milking cows, I wouldn't have to learn every day about new technologies. Milk production does not double every 18 months. If you want to secure the sausages you can simply put them in the fridge or kick the dog out. Consumers aren't interested in virtualized cows, and moving from 32 to 20nm casings won't impress anybody. Not even the dog.
Also, the cows are quieter, more gentle and way more intelligent than their counterparts in the Marketing department who call all me day about "important" emails they cannot print (yes, the printer had been unplugged to make room for the cellphone charger).

Back to the topic, if there's something else I'd like to do, it would be a short cartoon series about a crap-eating super-hero dog. I have enough scripts for at least 50-60 episodes, and the whole thing would be a smash. It's got suspense, action, drama, and at the end the good prevails (she dies).

If you're an animation studio and into my idea, drop me a few lines.
If I don't answer right away, I'm probably gone to plug back that printer.
