Wait till they outsource you. Mine happened not because my company got a bright idea; but, because of competition. The client we support is dragging my desk to Mexico and pushing it's US suppliers into having to outsource or lose their contracts.. It's one of the big 3.

I've talked to people at this point who were making 80-100k a year as engineers who are working now in Kmart, Target, and McDonalds cause they can't get anything else. That is money that isn't in this economy anymore. If it isn't here - it ain't here for you anymore than it is for me and primarily for them.

You've got people retraining who now find their degrees are no good. There is a person on this thread who has multiple degrees from multiple retraining efforts and his degrees are no good to him. What we're essentially being told by practical experience is all our money should be spent on our job in order to keep our job; but, it isn't our job, so don't expect to keep it. I spent 10 years in sales and I couldn't sell that on my best day. People aren't going to stand for being told they have to be professional students and be displaced everytime they sneeze because their employers can't be trusted, are unreliable and basically liars. And it doesn't seem to occur to any of you how subversive that is. As I've noted many times, ya'll are brewin the ingredients for a war.

Maybe not a war. More like a revolution.
