i see a wide variety of comments to this thread.all i can say is "it's your attitude that defines your altitude".....many people are happy the way they are.some are ambitious.some apply all these rules to get what they want and reach where they want to.some take only those that apply to them (like me)....that is just an act of survival in a sea of corporate sharks.nothing else.as long as you don't trample on anyone on ur climb up the corporate ladder,i think it's okay to follow a few of these rules.....

and mehnis,no,i don't think so that Law 18 applies to me.i've got way too many friends :-) i believe only in the concept of mental isolation at times.i need to have some "me-time".... ;-)
