i belong to the advertising industry and we guys usually keep complaining about this or that. i know every job has its ups and downs, pluses and minuses, but sometimes we just do not realize how privileged we are to get our air-conditioned offices and corporate perks. i’m no saint like Gandhi, but i do acknowledge his wisdom in looking at those less privileged than us. no epiphany but simply a realization of how lucky i’m to be where i’m in life.
