Am I qualified?
I am SUPERLATIVELY qualified!!!
The question is will they have me?
If I were RAND, I 'd snap me up in a second. No question about it.
But I am me, and RAND is RAND. So, there's no telling, really.
When it comes down to it, maybe the real question ought to be: would I have them?
Well, would I?
I do tend to take this sort of things very seriously.
Well, maybe not quite THAT seriously.
In any case, not SO seriously that I didn't go ahead and apply for the position. Working for a think tank, even if only as an Administrative Assistant, always had a certain appeal to me. Besides, I can use the money.
But the question still remains: what is it that RAND does, exactly? And what kinds of people do work there, anyway?
To be sure, RAND had nice things to say about himself:
Not everybody agrees:
The Rand Corporation: The Think Tank That Controls America
As is often the case, it all comes down to a matter of perspective, I suppose.
Does it matter?
Does it make any difference who one works for in the end?
Be it RAND Corporation...
Or Veridian Dynamics?
