People, wait till your job description gets redefined into something that you can no longer do, whether it's because of age or health or whatever. HR knows this, it's how they trim the workforce. You'll be forced to retire, then the people in HR will get a big bonus. (And then the bustards go to hell, but that's a topic for the religious threads.)
I'd call you a cynic, if I didn't agree with you so much. I've got 34 paydays left until I retire (but whose counting). And then I'm out of there on the Friday before my 62nd birthday. And I don't trust anyone who works in HR anywhere.
Like I say, I don't trust any of them. And I work for a GOOD company. They keep you around as long as they need you, then sayonara, baby.
Fortunately, they have me stacked up with 5 years worth of projects, so I think I'll make it before they're "done with me". I hope.
