I am NOT an old-timer (heck, I use Twitter which bans me for life [of
twitter] from the ranks of old-timers...), but I want to answer it
too.

Many people get bitter and negative after doing security for a few
years - and then they BURN OUT and go do something else [1] However,
the trick is to do what [supposedly] spies [2] are trained to do when
tortured: you get to like it! Negative? Sure, I'll give you negative
:-) Cynical? Let's make Diogenes proud!
