>I've worked many places, some like yours, and after your story, it reminded me how unlike that my current job is. It won't keep me from complaining entirely, but hopefully it will help me keep my perspective. Your place seems a lot like a place a had a contract for in Salisbury and Boston. Telespectrum Worldwide sucked. Plain and simple. I felt like I was going into the mines every morning. Not the cool ones like in Carlsbad, but bad ones that you have to work and die in. The people, the boss, the environment was one of the worst I had ever seen. You can't say much here, I'm sure, but you are a very intelligent guy; are there no other options?

Jay,

If I were younger, there would be. At 57, however, finding a job that pays as well as this one might be a stretch.

Plus, Shaw gave me a chance 19 years ago, and I'm a pretty loyal person. Compound that with the PHB's boss is a friend of mine as well as the PHP's boss' boss is as well.
