My whole life, I've been led to where I don't want to go.  All throughout school and work, I've done things that I had no interest in doing so that it would help me in the future.  In high school, I did marching band and mock trial because they told me it would look good on my transcripts.  In college, all my professors said, "The average engineer is only an engineer for 5 years after college.  Get into management."  And that's what all these jerks are still telling me.  "Take Six Sigma courses and get your MBA.  Become a manager."  I have absolutely no interest in becoming a manager.  I want to be a geek for the rest of my life.  Why must people force me to do things I don't want to do?  From the little I've learned, management is all about people.  I'm not good with people.  And I've heard that managers work long hours and have difficult jobs.  I don't want that.  That's stupid. #business
