But, scarcity = value! They don't tell you sometimes it also means you're just easy to overlook.
I'm the only person in my discipline and with my credentials at my hospital. Which means they didn't initially know how to pay me, and had to set up my own payment scheme in their system.
Every year when the hospital re-credentialing board goes to approve my faculty permissions, they mess up and have to call my national licensing committee...... where I'm a chair member.
Pro tip: If you pick an obscure enough subfield, you can become the leading expert by virtue of existing.

I'm riding it out until Microsoft officially announces my software is dead. I've matriculated among the legends of AS400 developers having post retirement contacts guaranteed until they can't operate a keyboard anymore. I'm all in for being that invaluable.
This is perfect. Thanks for making me laugh-cry.
