"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results
of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage
to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." — Steve
Jobs
My worst day at Rackspace is better than almost any workday I've had before coming here.
24 — it's non-stop, super heightened tension.
