Thankyou Michael for the profanity - big help from someone who has made such demands about the way we treat him onlist in the past...
Job shifts... Do you see any programs to support and retrain the workers that were displaced so that they can perform a new job and still make a good living? I sure as f##k don't.
Now that I've dragged the email from the cybercellar it was consigned to, and removed it's entry in the logs (I can't imagine NOT being the network administrator...)
Not that Michael is listening any more, because he doesn't like dissenting opinions, but I question this.
This is standard practice in Australia during retrenchments and the like - tons of money gets thrown at these programs. (Not always successful - we now have thousands of MCSEs who can't use a command prompt and MBAs who can't read a bank statement, but the effort is made to give these people every chance).
I see that IBM is doing something:

Surely there are programs like this throughout the US?
