So just how is professionalism religious?

On the surface of it, it is not -- unless the term 'professionalism' is being used as a cloak and foil to further one's own agenda that has nothing to do with a professional code of ethics.

Aside from this disingenuous possibility, the lack of profanity in a professional context boils down to the economics of respect (and, more directly, downstream sales in a business context). In the arena of respect, as with that of profit, one either caters to near the lowest common denominator in an attempt to minimize risk, or they embrace risk and become a maverick.

Many people, especially if they are pursuing moralistic agendas, ignore the possibility of existing somewhere between these two alternatives.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
