But they only didn’t happen because you stayed cautious. Now your younger self will throw caution to the wind and suffer the consequences.

In most salary roles you would be tenured with job security, and you would be covered by an appropriate award that limits the hours you work in a week.

In film production you get a job for a few months, and during those months you stay in a hotel or sleeper trailer, don’t get to see your family, and work from wake to sleep.

You would work potentially 18 hours, go back to your room to prep for the next day, then get what little sleep you can before doing it again. For months.

Then after all that you have no guarantee when your next job will be. Some industry professionals go years between jobs. It’s an extremely intense workload.

Not when your primary work is irregular and you basically have to live and breath the work for the many months you are attached to it. Basically every waking hour you are on the clock, which makes the hourly rate pretty low.

Sounds like utter bullshit to be honest with you.

Stark made the suit with no help. He doesn’t need a specific suit because he has the skill to invent whatever he may need.

At this point, Peter can’t make himself a suit like that, so if he is nothing without it, he can’t respect the power it brings. But he isn’t nothing without it, which is what Stark is trying to teach him: not to rely on power of others.

Give everyone a gun and suddenly it gets easier to murder people. Imagine if you gave everyone a button to launch the nukes, how long before the human race eradicated itself?

A lot of people are expressing the sentiment that the government should have exposed and punished them, but quietly kicking out spies is par for the course. When this hits the media it’s generally a bad thing.

Everyone spies on everyone. Everyone knows they are getting spied on. You have to be careful how you respond because you don’t want to escalate. You make it known to the other government that they have been caught and you gently move them on as a show of good will. When your spies are caught abroad breaking laws you want them to do the same for you. Now that this has gone public, India lose face, which could cause future tension. Also, sometimes finding spies on home soil can be useful if you let them think they haven’t been caught.

The average citizen thinks you can use playground rules here, but espionage is all about being subtle.

Everything can be funny, but that doesn’t mean any joke is funny. You still have to approach difficult subject matters with a certain art.

Have you seen the film Dark Star? Bomb number 20 gets stuck in the release bay with the detonation countdown still running, so they have to spacewalk out and convince the AI not to explode.
