		<description>I suppose you are happy now that they've fired Mr. GM?  Baseball teams are often more heartache than happiness, I think it's the nature of the game.  There will be good times again the Great White North, but in the meantime, enjoy other things as you have stated.  

Thanks for the pic of Cardinal Nation.  Tis too true my friend, too true.</description>

		<description>The gold standard is open for business and I'm loving every minute of it.  It will be sad that we can't continue to interlink all our blog posts and build our own utopia of SEM blogging supremacy.  

I've loved your posts as you've grown from a reluctant participant in this space to an eloquent master of the arts.  We need some place to lay it all out there - WiseCamel anyone?  I think we should all start posting over there once a week.  

Oh, and I'm a fraud.  Check out my footwear.  I'll try to clean myself up and act like a true leader on Monday.  I'm ashamed.</description>

		<description>Blue is far more aesthetically pleasing than yellow.  To this change I say "Nay."  Alas it is a sad day for us all as I have grown to love you, LifeintheBlue.</description>

		<title>Comment on Whistle While You Work by Nathaniel Broughton</title>

		<description>I would rate my job satisfaction as 'Satisfied' and my happiness at work as 'Very Happy'. I've got to think that most SEM folk, roughly 75-80% would be in this range also. You can tell at the conferences, just how much fun people have barking about search marketing and partying. There's a lot of things that are positive about being in this field - it's still emerging, so you get an inflated sense of importance and 'I'm the shit cause I know this' feeling, it's extremely flexible w/people's schedules, it's something that just about every company in the world would benefit from (and you can provide), and it's basically a 'what you make of it' situation.

What I mean is you get out what you put in, and you can apply SEM skills to literally any industry or type of website that you can conceive of. All it really takes is a desire to be successful once you have the knowledge base. There's nothing to hold you back and that's what I like most about it.

I think the only negatives are that it is generally a highly competitive sphere (everyone wants to be #1 on Google), and there is a bit of uncertainty involved. It's higher risk but higher reward than most people can handle, but f'n A it's a good ride. It's a life less ordinary but definitely feels like a privileged one to me.</description>
