Marginal Revolution: Advice for a future regulator: "If order to be prepared to take advantage of what you find just 'round the bend, here are some seemingly trite, but nonetheless useful, principles:
a. No assignment is too trivial to deserve your best effort.
b. Network. Whatever you're doing today, there may be somebody tomorrow who will know about it and who might be important to you next week.
c. Never burn a bridge. No matter how frustrated you are, remember that your [professional] actions should always be calculated, not merely for emotional relief.
d. Most important, and well served by the foregoing, remember that each job is most likely a waypoint along the route to the next. William Howard Taft knew that."
