      You'd be amazed both how little progress and how much progress can be made in 5 years depending on whether you're doing stuff that matters.

      (My last 10 include one example of both, I think.)

      @patio11 My impression of your past decade is "bingo cards", "appointment reminders", "teaching geeks how to sell", and "starting a family".

      @patio11 Which one matters, which one doesn't matter, and which two don't even register as being significant? :-)

      @cperciva The lost years include a whole lot of WoW and dead-end work which wasn't teaching me much.

      @cperciva Both the family and the entrepreneurship which actually worked happened in the last 5. (I've been busy!)

      @patio11 I think in the end "taught geeks how to sell" might be a far more lasting legacy than "reminded people about their appointments".

      @cperciva I'd hope so! Though I don't think that will be the final chapter in the career either, knock on wood.

          @patio11 "Taught geeks how to hire" would also be a great legacy, but as you know I'm skeptical about the direction you're going there.

          @cperciva We'll see how that turns out. Hoping to pleasantly surprise many, but either way happy to have you in the loyal opposition.
