Pad Mc,
Do want to add that one tend to compare most with ones own situation, in this case I compare with the company I work for. Here there is months of training for most employees and most of the time when we lose one it is a real loss. (Our average tenure for non assembly workers is over 11 years).
As an IT person (at least around here) you wold hold a different card entirely, with a shortage, you can always find a another job.

Happy new year to you too. Having read your last trip report and many posts, it would be great to cross your path in LOS.
