I could never do something I did not enjoy enough to put as much into it as possible. When in export I often worked very odd hours and have never had a 9-5 mentality which is so common these days.
Pharmacy and scientific matters in general have been a lifelong interest.

i agree, lots of us see the job as a 9-5 (or more likely an 8.30-6.30 plus commute home of around an hour or in my case a 2pm-11pm) and when you've churned out 500+ items a day the last thing you want to do is go to a meeting where you get told a load of half-arsed crap that you have to sift through to find anything relevant or useful - and that's normally stuff you can find out after a few minutes googling. This is all assuming that you don't get to the meeting late (and suffer the scornful stare of some office-bound pct monkey) because they planned it for 6pm and all the local teleporters are out of commission for you to insta-warp to their venue. After the meeting, feeling somewhat like you've been taught how to suck eggs and feeling a little angry you go out to your car to find a clamp on it because of the poor choice of venue the pct used.

sorry - just a bit of personal experience there...
on a lighter note, i went to renew my smartcard the other day when the pct smartcard co-ordinator collared me and wanted a few more details on "this EPS thingy and what all these releases were about"
eeek!
