Lesson 2: Keep it workin'

This article is somewhat a draft, and will be modified constantly till it's much better than this version


Today i had the chance of having a meeting with two senior ladies over a possible website job.

It was a plain old style meeting. Technical guy (me) introduces himself, talks about how superly awesome he is and how he'll handle the tecchi stuff easily and meet the requirements needed for the job blah and blah...

Well.. was not much like that. Indeed i introduced myself, but rest of the story was slightly different.

I was not the only tecchi person there. Two senior ladies did a wonderful job having their time studying web technologies, current implementations and stuff. They were asking me about Verizon, ssl keys, rss feeds, membership isues, advertisement revenues and stuff. They've even shown me the books they studied. Many notes were taken, pages were bookmarked. Wow..

Those ladies were the executives of one of the biggest publishers in the country, maybe Europe too.

Lesson learned is to keep the damn thing working. No matter what your age is, in whatever situation you are or whatever you are doing. Just keep studying and learning. Success will eventually follow.
