Maybe that's not true if you have a job that you absolutely love (I'm thinking Bill Gates or movie stars...), but anything related to the law? Meh.

This is outable, so be discreete,,,,,
I was a party at the house of one of the members of Gates' old MS posse, now retired. Another MS retiree and I are talking to the host. The topic was community volunteer activities...sitting on boards......arts.....city committees to study this or that.....etc....etc...et al. Anyhoo, one retiree references a third party not present in the context of, would said third party be interested in sitting on a certain board of a charitable org. Host says "maybe, although he might have time constraints, I heard he got a job" First guy says, "job!?!? what's wrong with him??" and looks at me and says "oh, sorry".
I died a little inside at that moment.
