			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So a couple of nights ago I was working away at a web application and found myself at the point of client selection. I had decided that a multiple select option field that allowed selecting clients and moving them into another select option field would be the best course of action.</p>
<div id="attachment_7" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-7" href="http://nathanjamieson.com/personal/re-inventing-the-wheel-is-sometimes-neccesary/attachment/clientselectexample/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-7" title="Client Select Option Box" src="http://nathanjamieson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/clientselectExample-300x94.gif" alt="Client Select Option Box" width="300" height="94" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Client Select Option Box</p></div>
<p>So what do I do? I know this is something that should easily be accomplished utilizing JavaScript so  I hop on Google and start guessing at one might call a little scrip like this. After about 15 minutes and several versions of a script I have now named client selector, I decide to write my own.</p>
<p>&#8220;<strong><em>Preamble Ramble</em></strong>&#8220;: Now I have been working with web technologies for some time but my current employment situation has led me down a very time constrained path (wine wine overworked IT guy I know)</p>
<p>So I start to create this little script and sadly it took much longer then I had anticipated, my skills have slightly diminished from no more then 2 years ago. I looked at the clock and it stared right back at me 3:37 am &#8230; whoa I had just spent 2 and a half hours creating this thing.</p>
<p>However I have not created anything on the web that has made me lose track of time like that, in a very long time. I have added gas to a flickering candle that was web development in my life.</p>
<p>Irregardless of what lessons I learned that night I now know that grabbing a quick script and pasting it in my code, although time saving has been ultimately sinking myself into IT burnout. Because the next morning and the rest of the week I had a new outlook it was a very odd sensation and it is with that momentum I am starting this blog with.</p>
