Your Career’s Election Day

I know that, “Go to the laboratory, young men and women,” will never make it as a phrase, but the sentiment is as right today as it ever was.

Young people among my dear readers, think about the wisdom of our political thinkers as you vote about your careers. However you vote, your parents, teachers, and mentors will support you.

Vote wisely. Vote well. And remember, your career is like an election in Chicago. You can vote as many times as it takes to get a winner.
