Why are you always like this? Sorry for sharing an article that I thought was interesting in an attempt to generate content on Hubski. An opinion or thought = an utterly baseless and prejudicial sentiment. Jesus Christ, man.
Because I've had to field calls that start with "if you ever play Dixie Chicks in our stores again we'll tear out all the gear and ship it back freight collect." The article is baseless. Interesting? Surely. But if I know something is deeply and completely wrong, am I supposed to shut up so I don't hurt your feelings?
In case you missed it, the article - and your sentiments - run directly contrary to that which I did for a living for 90 hours a week for 2 years. The "trade most people don't think about" was mine. Considering this whole discussion has been about how me and my former colleagues have no fucking idea what we're doing, I'd say I've been rather polite.
