Points taken Col, though I cant help feeling for "the sacked" and what becomes of them as the big side of town chases the big money.
I mean where do the corps think they are going?
Its a limited environment (probably why NASA wants out of earth) and there is only one position at the top.
Maybe the real trouble globally with corps having a cool heart, is in the greed of the shareholders.
Man wanting more and more... and going to die anyway.

Interesting story about Spotswood. My pub days before Jesus set me free were pretty dark days... so I wont go there.

Agree with you Gibs.

These crises are heaven sent! (You'll need to have a word about that!).
A perfect EXCUSE for more staff cuts.

And guess what? I came to that conclusion on my own. Jesus did not assist.

I have been the “victim” of reorganization, which, coincidentally, led me to leaving Spotswood (not that I would have stayed there much longer anyway).

Ultimately it is convenience which keeps people in jobs. I have always preferred the challenge of change so go through 3 or 4 places a year. It means I do what I do best and stay out of the soul destroying grind of office politics.

Now I work for myself but the boss keeps ignoring my letters of resignatio
