   Even worse is when they're struggling to find a job after being laid off, and you're still employed. Oh shit, if THEY can't find a job, if this gig falls through, guess I'm just fucked.

     @JessTheUnstill Tangential perhaps, but I used to bus to Nederland, Colorado from Denver, walk to the trailhead at about 8,500 feet to the Continental Divide at 11,000+ feet. I was in good shape, and always felt chuffed that I was up to that hike. But somewhere along the trail, some guy in shorts and running shoes would always come pounding up or down past me as if he were jogging down a suburban street. There's always someone better than you. But they get the knee replacement before you do.

     Every once in a while, I start feeling a little bit good about myself and my skills. Then I come across someone who is like EMBARRASSINGLY better than me at all of them. Whelp, guess I'll go back to making the best of being kinda sorta okay.
