It's because of the people. Although, as I just explained to Nick over IM, my job is all about replication:
nyali82 dude, filing e-mails into like 10 folders (electronic) is nuts
nyali82 my whole job is managing redundancy
nyali82 how crazy is that?
FeedMyLama oh jeezuz
nyali82 no really; that's what we do in client advisory
nyali82 we make sure the same exact information is in like 5 places
nyali82 so that it can spit out in various forms for our clients
I like it. They pay me to get dressed up, play with Excel, write e-mails, go to meetings, and work with an international network.
My colleagues, as fellow drones are called in the professional world, are hilarious. See e-mail below:
