A few years ago I was audited by Rev Canada. The auditor recommended I get "a real job" to avoid these types of things in the future.

So I went and got a job as a department head at a major computer manufacturer. I spent 6 months and 3 days there, I simply could not adjust to corporate culture. I excelled at the job but found my mental state suffering. I had over 130 people under me, all of which lived with mom and dad, or with their spouses mom and dad and were all talking about saving up for 6 months to buy a $2000 car...

I couldn't relate to them, to their lifestyles, to their social structures. When Minte had picked up his Lambo, I had mentioned it to a few guys at work. They looked at me like I'd grown a second head. How could I know someone who could afford a Lambo?

Before I left, I held a company BBQ for a bunch of my employees. In retrospect probably not a good idea. My home while moderate and conservative to the porn community was very lavish and extravagant to them. This created a larger rift between my staff and I.

It's tough, be prepared.
