I don't hire unlucky people
I agree with every <i>point</i>  Reginald makes but (and I am being nitpicky here) the form of the story -  the seeming  overtailored parable nature of it, of the kind you'd find in the Reader's Digest or a religious tract  -  rubs me  ever so slightly the wrong way.<p>I could have done without all the fake (or seemingly fake anyway) dialogue between the Wooster/Oscar etc and would have preferred a straightforward "This is what I(Reginald) think" mode.<p>Imagine pg writing his essays in the  form of "Paul wrote an ecommerce site in Lisp while Peter used C++. When Paul met Peter's wife Rosa in a coffee shop he asked her why Peter was looking so haggard and she said 'he is working through the night fixing bugs and not getting enough sleep. Would you mind talking to him? ..' "<p>Again, this is a <i>very</i> minor nitpick, just consider this feedback from <i>one</i> reader. I am probably considerably outnumbered by the people who like this "story" form better (and that is perfectly fine). Of course it is completely Reginald's prerogative to pick any style he wants.
