Yes I have done that.

At the time it felt good to tell the boss man to where to go as I felt he had crossed the line and compromised my integrity.
On reflection many years later I now feel that it was a weakness of character on my part that I let the prick get me mad.

I am of course only speaking of the experience I had and each situation is different.

Good luck

Just before he died, Gene Roddenberry admitted the Ferengi in Star Trek were modeled after Ross Perot.

They are trying to put lipstick on the pig for an IPO. I know that it is not personal, and as long as I am getting paid, I will do what I am asked to do. But it sure doesn't feel very good!

No PLM experience to whomever asked before. I am a JDE technical guy/team lead for you fellow nerds.

I grew up in Upstate New York, I know about Snow than you will ever see.

Utah I don't think will work. I talked to the Guy and it would be a few Months off

Its happening everywhere, big corporations are bracing for another economic crash, My wife works for a major international company, just this month they told everyone they have to take a week furlough each month. The government is lying about the state of the economy it is far worse then they want to admit ..

Any particular area of Tech that you're seeing this downturn? I'm working with Intel and it doesn't seem to be slowing down- most of our indicators are showing good signs of growth. Things can change in a hurry tho... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

People have been saying that for the last 30 years and yet i'm still here.

I survived the dot-com implosion while being right in the middle of it all here in the bay area.

I'll be fine ...

This is how to quit with style - as told to me by my brother in law several years ago.

He made sure he was the last to leave on a Friday night.

He left a signed note on the bosses desk. It said 'I quit'. Nothing else.

He then started up his company car, put the lights on, and - with the second key and good timing - he set the central locking, closed the drivers window AND threw the second key through the window before it shut.

The result - boss comes in on Monday to find car locked, keys inside, battery flat, no fuel.

Always admired him for that. Who would do a thing like that - well he's from New Jersey.

When I left Sallie Mae, I shook my bosses hand and said thank you for the opportunity. I saw him at the supermarket the next day. Delaware is a small world.

I tell my current boss to fuch himself everyday. But it's scott. T.C. understands.
