      Gordon Freeman, he's handy with a crowbar.
      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

            Almost every job I've had there's been a chap there who reminds me of him.
            Anyone else have this?
            Yes.

            I think that is a standard if you do IT work.
