I think a lot about challenging jobs.
When not moonlighting as a Mariners blogger/community hanger-on, I spend my day job working as a recruiter, working to fill various executive-level roles in the tech world. That means I’m always considering jobs that might be harder than meets the eye, or where there’s a high barrier to entry.
After watching today’s game between the Seattle Mariners and the Tampa Bay Rays, a wonderful 5–1 victory for the hometown nine, it was hard to know which role would be the most challenging. Is it being a major league umpire?
