Winging it

[shaunbhoy]

Nothing that concrete. I would basically be stating the obvious. Several times. Probably until my patience wore thin.

Even if I were utterly technically incompetent the chances of anyone noticing would be exceedingly slim.

There are a great many profitable Blue Chip Companies whose hierarchical structures are awash with people performing such roles. Just take the money.

If someone phones you up and offers you an airy fairy handwaving job, although you consider yourself a concrete technical sort of person, would you go for it if the money was good?

Just show me the money, son!

I'm not considering turning it down. If I'm offered it I will take it.

It would be a good career move. Although it might result in extreme boredom.

If I get really bored, which is quite often, especially in long meetings, I make little ticks on a piece of paper for every euro entering my bank account. Then sometimes I go for a 20 euro dump. Sad, but it works for me.

I've been winging it for last 10 years and still not been caught out. Money is better, lunches are longer but you have this hollow 'but I'm not making anything' feeling inside.

WHS, but without the hollow part.

It would have to be mega money.

My irritable nature may be a problem.
