On Standby

For those of you who don't "do" the work, this is a story about the lives of working people. "It's like herding cats," said Martin, their boss. "Whoever said managing was easy did not have this crew." Is the work dangerous? Of course. Can something go wrong? Expect it. Murphy's Law should be the motto to live by. Will you get enough training? Probably not. Can it blow up? Maybe. Be prepared. And when it does, pick up the pieces, brush yourself off and get back to it. Sometimes the pressure is too much. Sometimes you just have to get away.
