I left the actual company I worked for after 12 years because they *cough* Gannett *cough* were trying to force me out for two years. I was told that I "made too much money" for someone in my position. What a freakin joke - I was a commissioned salesman - I only made a percentage on what I sold. Effin' idiots. I took my own sweet ass time too - getting the "right job" for me. Since I've left, the department I used to work for went through 1/2 a dozen new reps tryin to replacew me and 3 overhauls to where the department got absorbed by another. My old boss got demoted to the equivalent of my old job. Ha Ha! Good luck Bob!!

Fuck them, I gave them all I had and was their top producer, by far, for the last 8 years I was there. I hope the place goes up in flames - figuratively speaking, of course.

Actually, in my line of work, I give up a great many freedoms. 'Nuf said.

It's the duty of every freedom-loving person to challenge totalitarianism and oppressive regimes...

...Except when it'll cost you your job, right?

Nope I stuffed it in their face. After leaving they realized what they lost and how big a mistake it was. I now make a lot more than I did there - and I have a nifty title too!
