I have reservations to take my wife out on Valentines Day. Should I instead divorce her so I can spend more time balancing binary trees? Would that get me hired, sir?
It takes a lot of sacrifice to make it to the top.
Should I be allowed to study while you enjoy your Valentines Day? Then I might just get ahead of you.
Luckily for us in tech you can make good money without being in the top 5-10%.
