I generally don't get paid for my work. Because I hold myself to a high standard (maybe absurdly high), and I won't ask to be paid unless I'm sure I can meet it on that job.

But many people in NZ seem to use the gift of the gab, to parley very basic computer knowledge into highly paid jobs as IT professionals. If only I had a dollar for every time I've seen things go wrong in a high-level IT setting and thought 'someone got *paid* to screw up that bad'.

Is my mistake being too honest?
