Most people are very career oriented, and what people do for a living is often the basis of how they are veiwed (or respected) by others. Yes, your job sure beats the heck out of working at Wal Mart...bet it pays better to. -- Frank Cahill Associate Member, Piano Technicians Guild Northern Va The cost of living is fairly high in my area as well.
