As I have said before, I don’t view the SHOT show as many or most do, a place to find things to buy or sell or use in matches or hunt or hide or snipe or load or whatever. Yes, that is all interesting, yes, it’s all fun. But I see the whole thing from the inside- many of these people are my customers and all of them, I know how they do what they do, even if I didn’t help them do it. <\/p>\n
So while people stood around and oohed and aahed, I thought about the QC and the number of machines required per unit and the programming necessary to automate. <\/p>\n
This is why I could never be a gynecologist. Knowing what’s under the skin can really ruin the magic. <\/p>\n
The trip home, while not horribly unpleasant, was at least tiring, and though the show was brief compared to many I help manage it was a week of 14 hour days, full bore. So when I logged on to my computer that night and got harangued about things over which I have no control by someone who is doing nothing about them himself, I had just had enough. And of course my company saved everything for my return, so nothing I needed done was done in my absence. I’m only just now really catching up on sleep debt, and mail, and other shit. So if I have been absent it is not due to lack of things to say, but the time I need to say them. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
