, if you're 33 (that means, you've been involved in that since you were 20)
and your main occupation > has been 'maintaining startrek.com' (or any one
website), maybe it's time to move on, and fatten up > that CV.
Ah, the modern world of work. No such thing as enjoying your craft, no such
thing as loyalty to or from your company. All about "climbing the ladder" and
"fattening up your CV". What a waste, 8+ hours a day spent on a rat race
instead of practicing what you love.
You can earn all the money in the world with your sort of attitude, but you'll
still have approximately the same number of days on this earth as I do. The
"pursuit of happiness" is an on-going experience, not a goal. If someone wants
to spend a third of his working life maintaining an excellent web site (+other
resources) on Star Trek, good for him. He's happy, he's harmless, he's giving
other people joy.
If you haven't found what makes you happy yet, heed the example of this sort of
person - don't put him down.
