I'm glad to see I am not crazy.

I really dislike the idea of being a specialist. I feel like a dweeb for banging on about disliking "corporate culture". I don't know how else to express that thought.

But yeah, I go crazy if I am specialized / pigeon-holed into only doing one thing all day, every day.

"I'm glad to see I'm not crazy."

That doesn't prove you're not crazy. ;-) Call it ADHD, but I'd go nuts (nuttier?) doing the same thing every day too. These days I'm doing a computer vision project (C++/OpenCV/3D math) and a laser monitoring project(C#/WPF). I just wrapped up a radar graphics project(C++/OpenGL).
