I got interviewed by IBM, but missed it by a hair. I also worked in the University of Miami for a brief time. I know I have a contribution to make, but I have not made it yet. I despise people who prey on the weak and take advantage of them. Most organizations have too many power mongers.
Organizations bring out the worst in people.
What I love best is when I see students succeed and tell me that I made a difference in their life. Well, that is up to the students to decide and not me, but I certainly hope so. Most people hate math. I find beauty in logic, in order, and that is mathematics. I sing in my church choir.
