>I worked (for quite a while) for a company where people came and went constantly. One of the young guys started a "Wall of Shame" on the wall of his cubicle, consisting of the business cards of the departed. Pat marked each card with Q (for quit) or F (for fired). A few were marked with question marks indicating departures of unknown origin. They just weren't there any more. Looking back on it, one of the funniest things was that Pat's Wall of Shame was unintentionally featured in our promotional brochure. It was a glossy, expensive thing we gave to prospective clients and the WOS was right there in one of the photos. The detail wasn't such that you could tell what it was but those of us on the inside sure knew.

Anyone seeing that without knowing the origins would think "wow they have a special way of paying attention to their staff in their corporate culture" (I first wanted to write "their business partners" but then it dawned on me that all the cards would be of the same design).

>My own career is kind of upside down. I was in that job for quite a while -- it wasn't so bad, I was out in the field most of the time in a high profile role at client sites -- then another for a while, and now in my dotage I am changing jobs like some people change underwear. Go figure. My theory is it's my subconsciousness's way of hinting that I want an entirely different line of work.

It's the same old job. You're changing companies and bosses, doing it in different places. As they say about most of the writers - they're writing one book in a life. I.e. it's the same big book, no matter how many volumes.
