ooh! Thanks for that link! I'm a self-aware and quite deliberate "Loser".

"The Losers like to feel good about their lives. They are the happiness seekers, rather than will-to-power players, and enter and exit reactively, in response to the meta-Darwinian trends in the economy. But they have no more loyalty to the firm than the Sociopaths. They do have a loyalty to individual people, and a commitment to finding fulfillment through work when they can, and coasting when they cannot."

Precisely. It's why I'm still in software dev, at the codeface, 32 years and counting...
