"Men give me some credit for genius. All the genius I have lies in this: When I have a subject in hand, I study it profoundly. Day and night it is before me. I explore it in all its bearings. My mind becomes pervaded with it. Then the effort which I make, the people are pleased to call the fruit of genius. It is the fruit of labor and thought." - Alexander Hamilton

D. O. P. E.

The key for success is what . . . the business card. Let's be real though some professional business cards that look great will sometimes open doors. Not to mention you need to have the right title one the business card.

I was working at a computer repair place in the late 90s. We had this boss . . . we read Dilbert all the time . . . we saw some similarity between Dilbert's boss and out boss. We even suggested that our boss sue Scott Adams for using his likeness.

So I am saying all this because the secretary in Dilbert had to order the TPHB some new business cards.

He came buy and said, Do not use my the initials D.O.P.E. for my title, use the full title Director of Business Enhancements. As TPHB walks away the secretary says . . .I did not know that was your title.

From then on this boss became known as the Director of Business Enhancements.
