”Did I mention to you that after the layoffs, people have been resigning right and left? Always the same story, going to do something else, not sure what, but something else. Two weeks notice, see ya. I’ll be doing the same tomorrow morning along with a friend who’s quitting for the same reasons. In fact, he’s been frustrated longer than me, probably because I was blaming myself and not the real problem of the toxic work environment.”

I can’t imagine anyone doing that in today’s economy without having $5 million cash in the bank. Of course, many of these guys probably do,

I did it, despite the doom and gloom of every IT job going to india, there will always be a place here for those 20% that do 80% of the work. Now,if this was an interview with a plant worker at Chevy, i'd def agree with you.

“ithout having $5 million cash in the bank. Of course, many of these guys probably do”

Maybe not that much but a lot. Knew a few ofthose folks years ago. If any of those guys got in early, they could well be worth north of 250 mil. But relatively new guys much less - but likely after a five years there they could have 1-2m in the bank/stock options, plus an expensive home on Mercer Island.

I think if I had that much and quit, I’d be just fine - especially if I were in my 20s, 30s and had MS on the resume.
