Comment A LINUX JOB IS BAD (Score 1) 145
Sure, we all like to sit at our computers using linux, playing some games etc, but we try not to let it rule our lives. A social life is important, girlfriends are important (as illustrated in a linux using friend of mine. He has a girlfriend who lives in Hong Kong and that he's never met, who's coming to visit him in Australia where he has recently started going out with another girlfriend.) What can this poor man do? Try to sort out the situation. Not sit at home at his computer all day and all night. He has an external life. If you choose to get a job where you work 9 hours a day at a computer screen using linux, where do you find the time for girlfriends. You would most probably become obsessed with your work. If you want a job, get a job that allows you to interact with different people and different environments away from your little "linux hobby" at home. You will find that your life will; have new meaning, and different social pathways will open up to you. It's your decision about your future, but choose wisely lest you wish a sad, desolate life in front of your linux box.
