The KGB Oracle Forums General Public Discussion (SPECIAL) The KGB Back Room Employee's Strike Back....

I agree with Squared. I'd list the details but he said pretty much exactly the way I see things. The short version is:

Company's are exactly what Squared said. However, they are run by people, which is what Drakiis was referring to. Ultimately though, if you don't like it... LEAVE. Which is what I'm preparing to do right now because I'm tired of the bullshit.

It's exactly what I am doing as well Kaotic. You can either accept being taken advantage of, like it or not, or do something about it. So, I have accepted being underpaid and having a glass ceiling for advancement because the Company has determined they rather retain dead weight at the upper levels and artificially hold down those of us who deserve/earned the right to advance. In addition to this Boeing has decided that we are a disposable commodity as employees who they feel can be easily replaced in a short turn churn. Of course their wrong, but that's neither here nor there.

Bottom line, I am taking my game someplace else, where I can advance my craft.

well then birthday boy why are you going to freeze your nuts off in Minnesota for the company then?

Because I like my toys, and I never make a move until its time. I am not looking for greener pastures, I am looking for the next rung on the career ladder. That takes time, calculated planning, and a shit ton of ass kissing aka: networking.

I want to go to Australia and work for Bechtel on the worlds largest open pit mine. That just doesn't happen overnight.

I already help cost control and reduce tooling tact time on the biggest mfg stage in America, now its time for another Continent and another massive project.

you are my hero

I'll come to Aussy land with you and clean house. I also cook
