I think you overestimate their importance to you. The work is going, going, gone. Don't believe me? Stay with them and wait. This situation is not going to improve. They don't need us to quit in order to give the job to someone else. They need us to quit so they don't have to give us UC. The thinning of the herd has begun. THE JOBS ARE GOING TO INDIA. PERIOD. My idea behind this post is that we do leave of our own choice in our own time. That is our only hope of a little satisfaction.
