I have really put in a lot of hours already in 2007. Mind you, it's not nearly as much as the average person works but I take my job much more seriously than I have to. I cannot stand putting in anything less than my best effort. These statements seem a bit strange to me as I always considered myself the jovial, liaise faire sort.
I just found a small insight in these comments though. I understand something important about myself. As I expect near perfection in myself, I have no respect for others who cannot do likewise. Maybe that's too much to ask. For example, just because I'm smart, should I hold the rest of the population to similar standards? Clearly, that's not possible.
