Disgrunted IT Employees Everywhere

“In 2007, about 12% of the IT employees fit in category of “highly engaged” workers, but that has since fallen to 4%. “These […] most critical employees,” […] [are] 2.5 times more likely than the average employee to be looking for new opportunities. […] “The folks at Apple Computer […] are unlikly to be looking elsewhere. […] Employees elsewhere “are going to be shopping for […] purposefulness,” […] A Dice survey of 360 people in August found that over a third were planning to change jobs once the job market improves.“ (Patrick Thibodeau) [Surveys: IT job satisfaction plummets to all-time low]

So what is the point? Go else where or stay because it is no fun else where either? Or is it, maybe, change jobs often?

    That’s what you get when you can’t have fun at the office. I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s unlikely that I ever again work as an employee.

    [Things I am not allowed to do any more:]

    Yelling “Fire in the hole!” whenever I make a check-in is not team building.

    ..

    I must not check in a new memory manager two hours before going on an overseas vacation.
