It's hard work, but not much like any of those for me, and less each time I have another go. I see a problem that needs fixing or something that needs doing and I get on and do it. There is definitely angst on the way, but no need at all for any of that level of hype and self-aggrandisment IMHO...

"Chewing glass"? Really. We're talking "first world problems" not actual lethal stuff.
