< It's just like a very good LC.  If you do an excellent job (and everybody
cooperates) there will be less need for you - and you MIGHT work yourself
out of a job!>
Pardon me, what a terrible comparison. Seriously?!  I'm sure this is an
April Fools.

I wouldn't in my wildest dreams consider practicing as a less competent LC
for fear that I would work myself out of a job, or in any other capacity for
that matter.  It is truly in being *more* competent that we work ourselves
out of a job, and that is the goal.  My dream is that we all would live in a
culture that promotes and protects breastfeeding (amongst other things).
 When the cultural revolution I envision happens, there won't be much need
for someone like me, at least not in the capacity that I'm currently
functioning, and I'll gladly seek other employment.
