Loved it. Great point.<p>I especially liked this: “Stop calling me that”, I said. “I’m not your uncle, It’s just an economical narrative technique I employed, so that everyone would make the assumption that I know you really well.”
In the Netherlands we have a "Guild" of front-end developers: <a href="http://fronteers.nl" rel="nofollow">http://fronteers.nl</a> We set this up for recognition of the trade, and honestly, it's helped. Not everything is a ploy.<p>That being said, excellent narrative.
